Axe Ghost News

Fixes a bug where the Path to Readiness training stages wouldn't show up after completing the tutorial. If you played yesterday and didn't see Path to Readiness training stages you can use the Training slider on the settings page to play them.

This update also adds various tooltips.

Changed the Timer description to clarify that you can continue your run after the timer reaches zero. Ignore the timer while you're getting used to the game!

Scalpel mechanic has been simplified. See description in-game.

Coin cooldown removed; you can use multiple coins in the same turn.

The full release is live. If you've been playing the demo or following development, thank you! Your progress in the demo is carried across to the full version. Please consider leaving a review of the full game. All reviews are *very* welcome, even critical ones.

The highscore table has been cleared for the official release. Garnemar awaits!
