Update 1.8

Hey everyone, it's finally that time. I am thrilled to say Public beta will begin within the next week on Android... alongside iOS and Steam. That's right, cross platform support is finally here. Leaderboards will be shared across platforms, but usual region-specific restrictions will still apply. Translation systems have been updated and some of you are already contributing, but we would greatly appreciate further support for your local language so others in your country can enjoy the game as much as possible! You can help us to translate the game here: https://infinitode.prineside.com/?m=translate As promised, a Q&A stream hosted by Zeraco, one of the two community managers (The other is MarshallUA!) will be held over on April 7th 6:30pm BST at https://www.twitch.tv/Zeraco. Here we will attempt to answer as many questions as possible that aren't covered in the changelog. The stream will showcase the new changes as well as feature casual gameplay of stage 6 from top players from the Closed Beta. Join our Discord to discuss the update: https://discord.gg/4kZ2TJ4

Note from Zeraco: To make this clear, we do support modding wholeheartedly, especially creative ones. There's a good one recently with custom stages made by players. This new version of Dev mode will help a lot with things like this. That said, please be careful whose mods you use. Stay safe! (List of "Dev mode and modding" category changes will be posted as a comment - we've reached the news article size limit) [/expand] Thank you all for your continued support and patience. Good luck and have fun!
