I would like to inform you that today the Quintessential Arctic game is officially considered released! 

It was a difficult journey. During development, I lost access to my account once, the sounds (being good and with the correct format) sometimes played incorrectly or not at all, in the end even the mouse broke and had to finish without it! I have experienced a fairly wide range of emotions from sadness and boredom to delight and inspiration!

In the new update, after which the game was considered released, a door to the player's room was added. Now he can close it to protect himself from an unknown creature.  Previously, this was not so logical: an unknown creature simply did not enter the player's room, although nothing prevented it. I was even thinking of adding a «Safe zone» label. I also changed the behavior of an unknown creation from 8directions to Bullet. No more getting stuck in blocks!

UPD: I also decided to change the name of the game from Arctic Spirit to Quintessential Arctic. The reason for the name change was the fact that when I wrote down itch io Arctic Spirit in the search engine, I did not find my game. I think the new name will make the game more recognizable and easier to find!

UPD2: Well, I still couldn't find the game by searching for itch io quintessencial arctic! Maybe that's not how it works?

Thanks for reading!
