Hello everyone!

It's Time, Time to start running. The tower is up and ready, and everyone can start playing Tic-Toc-Tower now in it's full glory!

After almost 8 weeks in early access. We're hitting the store with a full fledged game that is Tic-Toc-Tower. Here are some of the features which have been greatly improved over Early Access and are now available for play!

3 New Characters have been added to the game, for a total of 8 very differently characters!
3 New settings + mechanics: Slime, Sawblades and much more will keep you at bay as you try to reach the exit!
Over 200 Levels! We've added a bunch of new levels for all the new playstyles so you can enjoy a wacky variety of levels, and we've added a new "smart-pool" system which'll make you visit new levels more often that you did during early access.
4 New game modes, making a total of now 10 avaiable game, 6 single player and 4 multiplayer. Battle for the leaderboards or just enjoy battling your friends, Tic-Toc-Tower has it all!
Ingame shop: It's something we've been wanting to give you all. Those coins you've been collecting? Those will finally be usuable for you to unlock new modes and players. As these are a little trickier to play, and you'll need to prove you can play these!
An much much more!

We've all enjoyed working with you all improving Tic-Toc-Tower. And we'll continue working on it even after release. Let us know your thoughts and we'll be happy to talk with you all!

Let the race to the top begin...

Hey there everyone and welcome to our final Early Access update!

This week will be a pretty short update, as we're working at Tic-Toc-Tower like a madman to finish up everything. We'll keep the mainline mostly update free but you might see a few pop in over the next few days.

*The main menu needs to be navigated with the mouse.This will be fixed A.S.A.P. We're sorry for any inconvience for the moment.*

That said, we'd like to take this opportunity to invite you all into our Public Beta line for the next few days. We're already showcasing some new features in the pipeline which are done, which are currently up for last minute balancing. (Plus, you'll finally see what all the shop fuss is about!)

I'll keep our new features and tweaks for next week. Because it's mostly bugfixing that's been going on since last week. But there is one big thing that happened this week. And that's the rebalancing for all those levels.

As we've been heading towards the 200 mark, we've seen an decrease in the difficulty curve. Now this can not do, as we want Tic-Toc-Tower to be a challenging game to play. That's something we're advocating, so to accomadatate this whilst still having a good learning curve for beginning players we've been restructuring the level balancing. This is almost finished and will be in Beta before this weekend. So if you have any comments please shoot us some!

(oh, and for our more hardcore players, you can already find new level types hidden in the game!)

Just 4 days till launch. Check out the beta for our latest build or check it out at launch for some suprises we have lined up for you all!

Thanks for all the support so far and we hope you all check out Tic-Toc-Tower next monday on launch!

Another Thursday goes by, and another update is rolling out!

Tic-Toc-Tower is all about speed and skill. To enhance this experience and to add a little competition, we're adding just the feature that'll fuel the drive to improve. Highscores!

Now your best scores for every mode (and the teamscore for Co-Op) gets put up on the highscore list. You can compete against the world and later this week, friends as well.

*Highscore tables might be reset a few times during Early Access*

(The clever mammoth here will know that you can already check the friends score through steam)

We're close to revealing our little Early Access surprise as well, so keep a close watch on the Tic-Toc-Tower page the coming weeks!
A little note on the EdgeGlue bug, we've so far reduced it's effectiveness in levels, but for the moment it's still and issue in the game, we're working on fixing it, and will let you all know as soon as it's fixed!

The new stuffs this week:
- Updated the Toy Background (we're still not satisfied with the design)
- Added Leaderboards to main menu.
- Made some minor changes to the GUI.
- Added a few people to the credits.
- Started adding new sound effects to the game.

If you want a sneaky peek at the new features we're putting into early access. And want to help us improve our game in a heads-on fashion. Be sure to opt in to our Beta for Tic-Toc-Tower. We have an open Beta version online in which we test our contantly evolving game.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

See you all next week, and we're looking forward to seeing players take their scores to the leaderboards!

We challenge you to beat our scores!

We've finally settled down this week and wanted to do something that's been bugging us ever since beta. The Tutorial.

Tic-Toc-Tower can be a immensly difficult game if you don't grasp the basics yet. The game is extremely fast and you can find yourself getting frustrated by some levels without the right balancing. So we did something new. We designed a new mode called "Play box".

This game mode breaks tradition with our stress infilled levels of 10 second terror. Play Box is a mashup of the new tutorial levels and our first batch of levels. But without the time limit, you can easily test new moves and learn characters to make their playstyle your own.


New Features:
- Game Mode: Playbox
- Tutorial start. New players get a 5 level tutorial which they must finish before starting the actual game (it should only last 20=25 seconds for known players.

KNOWN ISSUE*
- The horrible EdgeGlue bug; characters get stuck on the side of the platforms due to a horrible new bug and we're busting our asses to fix this ASAP. But it will take some time. Our apologies, in the meantime, we put in 24 different fart noices to distract you all from the bug. Enjoy!

If the responses are well we might put it in permantly as a feature.

Minor Tweaks:
- Changed Toy Background to placeholder due to unclearness of platforms.
- Fixed up a few controller issues and improved Keyboard support.
- Removed old crappy tutorial. ^^
- Improved mouse support for menu's.
- Changed up level pools for arcade and Time Trial Mode.
