On original hardware, Shrewy's boss fight was a source of major slowdown as sprites warped and wiggled across the screen. Volvy's Adventure: Reslimed reimagines this epic battle in buttery-smooth double-digit framerates.

Small thread to talk about what Order Automatica actually is 👽 TL;DR: Super Auto Pets, The Ninth Gate, Into the Breach, Broughlikes, Hearthstone Battlegrounds, Inscryption It's a strategy game where you put your guys on a 3x3 grid, styled up as the long forgotten ritual of a secret society.
