It's a new year!
The hold on the Wendy, Wortox, and Walter skill update has created a scenario in which we have to juggle some updates a bit to prevent further disruption. As discussed previously, we wanted to better address the skill trees but we also have to make sure we're delivering on the other updates that we were already working on. Most of Wendy's changes are in the beta update today, leaving the Woby changes to Walters Skill trees to come a short while after. So it's going to be a bit longer before the whole update is released fully. We want to ensure that the result of the extra time spent on this update is that last year had one less update and not that this year (or both) is short an update. 

We'll have more information about when that update is going out pretty soon. 

On that note, as we do every January, we are also taking some time to look at the previous year and the year ahead of us, what we want to accomplish for the game and the studio as a whole, and how to best adjust our plans accordingly.

We're pretty much set to go and almost ready to share a new update plan (roadmap) with everybody, very soon. We're pretty excited, and we think you're going to be too. 

See you then!
