v0.05 Alpha Version Details (and all historic versions)

[Heshan]

Today we've pushed out the latest Alpha to the Oculus testing programme so I thought it was about time to share the progress. This should help us to focus on the few remaining tasks (namely: adding levels and polishing up the look and feel of the game). Here are the Alpha release notes, plus the notes from previous versions (consider it an archive).

Oh, and I want to get some screenshots and videos out by the time the next build is released, so keep an eye out!
