An important update on the Ultrapool release date.

A press release for Ultrapool, from offbrand games and Icedrop Games. it reads as follows:

"Dear offbrand games community,

We’ve been hard at work alongside the team at Icedrop Games, putting
the finishing touches on Ultrapool. We’re so hyped up to see so many
people playing the demo, talking about the game, wishlisting it on Steam,
and spreading the word ahead of launch.

As we get closer to our previously announced release date of August 25th,
we’ve had to take a serious look at the project, our timeline, and so many
other factors. After countless discussions and several meetings, we’ve
decided to change the release date of Ultrapool.

This isn’t a decision that we make lightly - the new release date reflects
the current status of the project, and our ability to deliver the game we
know you all deserve. The gameplay is solid. The art is ready. We have
a bunch of cool unlockables and they’re all finished. The game is even
localized in a dozen languages. So, in light of the game being pretty much
on track and because we are so cool and dope and swag, we’re launching
Ultrapool a day early on August 24th for Steam, iOS, and Android.

You’re welcome."

It is signed by Ludwig Ahgren, founder of offbrand games

For anyone who, like me, is now in their post-ironic phase of appreciating "Mr. Jambo", once you've burned through Paul Simon's "Graceland" and those couple Talking Heads songs, may I suggest the following: www.youtube.com/watch?v=TLRf...

12.7 cm (5") in the rain gauge and the garden is flattened. I guess I didn't just dream that thunder last night. Thankfully, no cracked stems or stalks. Look at those bendy vegetables.
