Demo Launches TOMORROW, Oct 10th + More Playtest Patch Notes!

[p]Hello, friends and frenemies of Sirenis, big news for you today![/p][p][/p][p]EDITED On Oct. 9th: We're furiously polishing over here at Goose Byte HQ, and made the decision to punt our Demo launch to tomorrow, October 10th, to get a few more good bug squashes and improvements in for the best experience possible. Thanks for your patience, Sirenis-BFFs.[/p][p][/p]

Demo Launches Tomorrow, October 10th

[p]We'll be unveiling the demo tomorrow morning, in advance of Steam Next Fest. Your feedback on the playtest has been invaluable in helping us steer the experience towards something that hopefully will captivate and entertain (and not crash or annoy with crab sound effects)![/p][p][/p]
