Full launch, bug fixes and price reduction!

Hey all! So we've been hard at work fixing bugs and adding the most recent round of polish to the game. We've decided to dramatically reduce the price and hope a lot more people can now have the chance to play Freepoint High! Some of the bigger bugs are gone now, (no more invisible Walker bot tails, no more getting snagged on stairs) and we've introduced and tweaked a few of the Easter Eggs scattered throughout the game. We really hope you all enjoy the game, we'd love to hear your feedback on how we can improve it in the future!

Penultimate Update!

Hi guys and gals! We just pushed out our second to last new content update for the game! You can now rescue every kidnapped kid and collect their powers! Stay tuned, we will be pushing out the last big content update soon, with all the End Game stuff, find out who was behind the attack on the school and why, plus a ton of balance, tweaks, and permanent upgrades to Health and Stamina. The official Release Date for the game will be Monday, April 4th, so until then we have a ton of polish we're working on. THIS UPDATE: -Rescue Abed Sahni from a terrifying reptilian Believer who has taken him to the Deep Woods -Collect the power of Flight! -Collect permanent upgrades to Health and Stamina* (in the process of implementing these, still need a layer of polish) -Lots of under-the-hood bug fixes, polish and updates KNOWN ISSUES: - We're still adding all the new textbox dialog, 2 of the Believer encounters still need the Intros/Outros - Last minute bug snuck in, Back button on the menu screens decided to throw a fit. They still work, just look weird

Another content Update! 2/21/16

The Believers have kidnapped Connor and took him away to a beach cave, in the hopes that the cave would interfere with Henrys Mentalism and Bentleys boosted Personal Navigator! Luckily the underestimated how clever Bentley is, and the kids were able to locate the general area where they took him, but getting to him is not gunna be easy! --- New Content: -Beach Cave level -New Boss fight (Watch out, she hits like a ton o' bricks! -Rescue Connor Kokesh and collect his Super Speed ability! -Hopper bots are not stompable! (like the Uni-Wheel Roller bots) -Most Believers now have working text intros and outros Bug Fixes: -Fixed some camera issues with several levels -Began getting the game ready for porting to iOS/Android, so expect some VFX to be transitioning -Fixed a bunch more bugs Known Issues: -Beach Cave (Super Strength) Believer Boss intro (and outro) still needs textbox triggers -We are implementing the expanded leveling-up system, so once you reach level 5, you gain another health bubble..... that doesn't fill yet. Will be fixed next update! -Stamina cost of all abilities will be tweaked and re-balanced, (giving you the chance to use the different abilities much more)
