500 Steam reviews!
Hey everyone!
Today marks an important point in the release of Intravenous: we've just hit 500 Steam reviews! It's not much, but to me personally it is a big milestone, especially considering that my first game, Game Dev Studio, doesn't have that many reviews after being released for three and a half years.
Granted, it was my first game, so there were many things I got wrong or overlooked. I've learned from my mistakes, and as result Intravenous released with far fewer issues.
Intravenous is a stealth/action game that I've always wanted to play: difficult stealth and hardcore, lethal & tense combat that forces you to think fast and remain mobile to stay alive.
I would like to thank everyone who has contributed in some way to the game, be it bug reports, feature suggestions, testing the upcoming Map Editor update, or just something as simple as leaving a review. You might be surprised to hear this, but positive reviews help a lot!
I'm super happy to see such reception, and am glad to see that so many of you guys have enjoyed the game.
I've said this in other places before, and I'll say it again: nothing beats seeing a positive review with 20, 30, 40, or more hours on record. When I see someone who has enjoyed the game to that extent, and got that much hours of playtime out of it, I know I've done a good job with the game.
I would also like to mention that, in case some of you may have missed it, the game now has a demo version. If you, or your friends, wanted to give the game a try - now's a great time! The demo version features the prologue and the first two gameplay levels, to let people get a feel for what the game is all about.
You might've noticed the frequent updates to the Map Editor branch, well I have some good news: I'm getting close to finishing the update and releasing the Map Editor!
As a reminder, you can opt into the 'mapeditor' branch at any time. It is currently in the BETA test phase, so expect issues. If you wanted to try your hand at making maps - now would be a good time, as you would not only make your own content, but also help with reporting bugs and giving feedback.

Thank you so much, everyone. You guys rock.
