So relaaaax, we are not the ones making the documentary and our games will always be top priority, especially during Early Acc |

| A Merry Christmas, to all our fans! | 2018-12-25 | https://i.imgur.com/TeKAIQ4g.png Ah, Christmas… I hope you will excuse the rushed nature of this little holiday message, as I am currently at a bus station, waiting for a bus to visit my relatives. I could have just wrote “Merry Christmas, everyone!” and left it at that, but I had some more sincere thoughts on the mind that I wanted to share. It would be easy to just wish everyone a merry Christmas, and to say that we hope your holidays are filled with nothing but joy and love, but we know it doesn’t always work out that way. While some are finding it easy to cozy up with loved ones, with a big merry feast, others are alone and dealing with h |
| 4.3.0 Update – Linux, Soundtrack, Chinese and More! | 2018-05-29 | https://i.imgur.com/duZYSCz.png We're aware that we've been pretty quiet for the last couple of months. Some of you may know that this is due to us being busy with a new (secret) game that we're working very hard on, which leaves us very little time to do anything else. However, we're also very aware that we've left a few loose ends which we've finally taken the time to address. Today we are updating POSTAL Redux on Steam to version 4.3.0, which aims to fix most of the biggest issues that have been plaguing the game. Hopefully, this means that all of you will now be able to enjoy POSTAL Redux to its fullest, leaving us a bit more free to work |
