Very Limited Run Atomic Owl Vinyl NOW AVAILABLE!

Bladewings,

A little history lesson.

A number of years ago, some of you during the Atomic Owl Kickstarter expressed interest in a second printing of the vinyl, but...we only made 100 of the original, sold out of those, and have left our audiophile fanbase LANGUISHING.

[i]Well, NO MORE![/i]

As of today, we're extremely proud to announce that with the help of Ghost Mutt Records, we have 100 more vinyl available to purchase today for the low cost of $34.99.

Get yours today: https://www.ghostmuttrecords.com/product/atomic-owl-ost-selections

Sounds by Xennon and Shibuya64. Vinyl artwork by NeonDemon.JPG.

Here are some extremely cool pics of said vinyl, in extremely beautiful "Atomic-pink" vibes!

Console Porting Enhancements

Hey all!

This is more or less the culmination of months of finding bugs for the console version, fixing them, and then bringing those changes to Steam.
