I'm tempted to buy it right now (<£10 is hardly going to break my finances) but the final build is not ready on the website yet?
Well atleast it isn't possible to download the full version, wil you send the game binary by email?
The final version of the game is already online; though of course some updates will follow.
These include stability updates and such. You will receive a download link via e-mail once you've completed the payment process.

Please note that currently only a Windows build is available.

Please let us know if there is any more confusion about this; and we'll be happy to clarify : ).

Looks like fun, I really like the retro style. I'd also like to try a demo.
Very impressive, also considering it was created by a 2 man team!
Keep up the good work!

I just played the Demo, it's pretty cool!

I have a minor gripe though:
'There's no way to turn your hero without taking a step forward.'

Personally I think I'd be nicer if you could tap an arrow key quickly for facing that way,
and holding down the key to step in that direction (I recall this being the case in Pokemon).

Best of luck with sales and keep up the good work on the new game+ mode!

Hey, thanks for playing the demo!

Not being able to turn on the spot is something we feel is essential to the game. If it was possible, the game would feel very different; and be much easier at the same time.
We think it adds to the charm and challenge of the game; and turns the combat into something you have to quickly think through. Combat then becomes a whole series of small puzzles! : )
Do note that it is possible to turn while walking, so quickly tapping left and then immediately tapping right will result in a quick turn-around; although it isn't possible if you can't move to the left ; ).

Thank you for your support, we appreciate it! New Game + will be fun!
