Slugcats Have Invaded Nanomon

[p]Hey slugcats,

While we’re still working on bringing Rain World: The Watcher to consoles, I have something else for you!

[/p][h2]The slugcats have invaded another title: Nanomon![/h2][p]
Nanomon are tiny, virtual pets who hang out in the corner of your screen. Train, explore, discover, and play with your Nanomon so they can evolve into the perfect companion! Only the best, most attentive trainers will help their Nanomon achieve their life goal!

And yes, you’ll be able to raise and train a slugcat in Nanomon! However, there is something secret you must do in order to have the slugcat appear. Something to… decipher…
For the first 100 people who decipher the code, I will give a Steam key to Nanomon! Join the Rain World Discord server and DM me (@rivotter) the last word on Discord if you are able to decipher the code!
