Hey everyone, it's time to bring roguelike billiards to new audiences! Today's update adds 5 new languages to the game: German, French, Portuguese (BR), Chinese (simplified) and Japanese. Additionally, macOS support and a few general fixes and optimizations! As usual here's a reminder that if you enjoy the game consider leaving a review. It means the world, helps a lot with Steam visibility and ultimately allows me to put more hours into this game that I love so much. So here's a big thank you to anyone who chipped in! To celebrate, Rack and Slay is on sale on Steam (and Nintendo Switch) right now, and is participating in the amazing Roguelike Celebration 2024!

New Bundles
In other news, I'm collaborating with a few awesome indie devs in Steam bundles (besides the previously existing cooperations with Luck be a Landlord and the 2 Left Thumbs roguelike bundle)! If you like your roguelikes featuring bouncy ball physics, check out Roundguard: https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/44868/Roundguard__Rack_and_Slay/ And to keep the balls rolling, the roulette roguelike Bingle Bingle has got you covered: https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/45957/Bingle_Bingle__Rack_and_Slay/ As with all previous updates, I'll be keeping a close eye on the Steam forums and the Discord for your feedback, especially on the new translations (or languages you'd like to see in the future). All the best and have fun, Fabian
