Hello Everyone!

The time has come… We have finally graduated from Early Access and are releasing the 1.0 version of Skul: The Hero Slayer!
It’s been just under a year since we started this journey with you and it has truly been a life-changing experience for us. We can’t thank you enough for taking a chance on our game and joining us on this thrilling ride.
But now without further ado, here are some of the things you can expect to see in the 1.0 version!
*Also please note that the game will be 20% off at launch, so don’t miss your chance to get a good deal :)

[h3]Upgraded Skulls[/h3]

[h3]Captured Demon Brethren[/h3]

[h3]Digital Soundtrack[/h3]
- You will finally be able to get your hands on the wonderful OST for Skul.



Thank you all once again for supporting us and providing us with invaluable feedback this whole time.
This 1.0 release isn’t the ending, but merely a checkpoint in the process. We plan to add a lot more content to the game before all is said and done.
This new version should be even more fun to play than before and we hope to continue on this path for the future with a lot of the exciting things we have planned.
So please enjoy the 1.0 version! We’ll also share our development plans in the near future, so stay on the lookout for that.
Thank you!
