Hey everyone, Sorry for the long silence! Cartridge Monsters was our first game release and although we had grand visions, being our first game, we just didn’t know, what we didn’t know. The game had some deep-rooted issues, and we knew it would need to be remade the right way to really work. So instead of charging, we decided to make the game free. Some are thinking, what about those of us who paid? We will get to that 😊 Instead of seeing this as a setback, we viewed it as an opportunity. An opportunity to step back, improve our game development skills, and deliver a greater VR creature catching experience. This isn't just a mere update – we've rebuilt the game from the ground up from the ashes like a phoenix we bring you: Cartridge monsters: Rebirth [img]https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/38706949/263726e27599f72bbdf05eb1bda0083eddbcf086.png[/img] There is a new story, completely new combat system, location, mechanics, and much more! But, before diving deep into the details, we'd like to announce that everyone who purchased the original game [b]before it became free[/b] will receive Rebirth for free. So, what's new in Rebirth? • Monster Rework: We either reworked or completely remade all monsters in the game.

Player vs Player battles and Monster Trading. • Rebirth takes place on a large 2km Island with dungeons and more secrets! • Original Music: Just like the first game, all music in Rebirth is original and carefully curated to enhance the gaming experience.
