I just wanted to take a moment to thank everyone who has been here since day one of Early Access, and those of you just finding your way here via the recent sale. It has been a fun journey to take with all of you, and before too long it will be coming to an end. An official launch is just months away, and we owe a lot to you, the community, for sharing all the love, bugs, issues, suggestions, wishlists, thoughts, stories and everything else. As Jae Lee and any indie dev can tell you, it is hard to open up your baby to the criticizing eyes and hands of the public. Kings of Kung Fu: Masters of the Art, was, is and will be Jae's passion project to bring his love of classic kung fu movies and old school fighting games into one fun playable form. As Jae said from the beginning: "Kings of Kung Fu is mainly a love letter to kung fu cinema firstly and a casual to mid core fighter secondly. The game is a small, indie passion project aimed to provide fun while honoring the films I have always loved. Feedback from the community will help make this a better game. I don't want to give the false impression that it will become a fighter for the hardcore fighting game community. I appreciate the support and feedback and will continue to update the game with your feedback in mind." Since the game hit Early Access we've seen a number of improvements come along.
