Thanks, Gary! We've come a long, long way and learned a lot since we did the Kickstarter over two years ago. We still have a lot to learn, but we're at a good point and getting awesome feedback to improve and build from here.
It's not graphically amazing, but it gets the job done and kids don't seem to mind anyway.
