A message from Oscar, the dev: “I'm so glad to finally announce this and give you all access to the new demo!

Thanks everyone for the support, bearing with me as I repeatedly said "soon...", and for sending all your suggestions, bugs and cat pics.

Having a publisher for Botsu has already been making a massive difference to working on this game as a solo dev, getting support on the non-dev stuff that I have no idea about (testing, marketing, community management, PR etc.) so that I can focus on making this silly game.

I can't wait to hear what you all think of the new stuff and I'm looking forward to the release of Botsu and more silliness in the future!”
