July development update

Hi everyone,

It's a bit early for a new update, but since more and more people are asking about Chapter 3, I figured I could give you a better idea of what state the game is in. I've been working hard on level design, which is the biggest task on the list. I have to create hundreds and hundreds of rooms for the procedural algorithm to create levels that feel as fresh as possible each time.

I don't want to give a precise date on the release of Chapter 3 because we'll only release it once we think it's great. We have all the resources we need to complete it and know exactly what to do. Still, I decided that I could give you guys a very rough view of all the important tasks that go into making Chapter 3. That should give you a pretty good idea of the state of the game.
