Hey guys,

the day that we all have been waiting for and striving for has finally arrived to our purple-lid doorstep! Conglomerate 451 is here with version 1.0 which concludes its Early Access cycle! We just to like to say couple of things to you - the community.

I'm Matteo - one of the two Runeheads developers. I'm writing this few sentences to say thank you to all players that helped us during these 9 months of Early Access.

It was a crazy journey: a lot of fun, a lot of work (a lot of nights working on the game, also), a lot of ideas that you suggested to us.

It was our first early access, we never did in the past. But we appreciated every single feedback, every single word you wrote us.

Sometimes it was really hard; we had some drawbacks (like when my PC died), but your passion and your enthusiasm for Conglomerate always helped us to keep going.

The game, in May when we started the EA, was a small seed. Now it's a mature title, with a lot of features and ideas.

We really hope you will enjoy it as much we enjoyed chatting with you, listen to your suggestions and your amazing ideas.

So, thank you from both of us: you are breathtaking (uh, can I say that or there is a copyright? :D).

BUT, that's not the end of our journey! It's a start: we want to keep improving the game in the next months. There are other ideas we want to put into it, and more challenges we want to face.

Keep talking to us, giving your ideas: we always will answer you.

So keep in touch: Conglomerate City needs you.

Matteo and Moreno - Runeheads
