Hi guys!
For the last few months, we got a lot of your feedback for both Steam and Mobile versions of the game. First of all, a big thank you to every single one of you who supported us over the last few months. We are a small team, and we've been working hard to bring you the best possible version of the game. Today we are releasing a bigger update with a lot of fixes and we need some help with testing it.
The update is now in [b]open beta[/b], and you can test it by clicking right click on The Academy in the Steam library> Properties > Betas tab > access code is: [b]betatester99[/b] > select Open Beta branch from the dropdown menu.
