For those of you who have already beaten some levels on expert, you will have some new shields waiting for you in your inventory!

- Mini-Roadmap for the Next Update - 25 September 2016
Thank you so much for an awesome launch everyone :D It's so amazing to hear so many people saying they have had the time of their life playing this game! Some have gone as far as to say it's the best sword game for the Vive! I I think that's saying a lot haha, but thank you! On the other hand, people have pointed out some points on the game that need some improvements. You're right, there are some bugs I need to fix that I didn't see before. Playtesting is really hard with Vive games. I did as much playtesting and beta testing as I could before launch, but the best test of all is really putting the game in players' hands. I learned so much from everyone's feedback after launch! There are a good handfull of small changes that could really help to fix the problems that are holding this game back. What I plan to work on for the next update: Improve the armor hit boxes - This is the most im…
