Hello everyone! Yes, I've still been working on Ladder Slasher, and the next update will be a huge update. I've given out a few basic teasers about the scale of this update, but it's going to be the biggest update LS has ever received. I'm finally taking some large strides towards where the game will be in the future. These steps unfortunately cannot really be broken down into smaller chunks, so I'm left with a monster of an update in order to take that step. It'll be well worth it. I have no ETA on a release, but I am shooting for a target release of before the end of the year. Ideally it will be much sooner, but we'll see how things progress. I still have a lot to do, mountains to climb, etc.
So, without further ado, here's a small teaser (and I mean incredibly small piece of the next update) of what's in the works. Introducing....
Slugslider - A giant slug that can slide and self propel along ice and snow. Slugsliders grow thick armor that their malleable bodies can manipulate and use as weapons.

No further details will be given at this time, and no, I'm not looking for ideas/suggestions at this time either. I already have a huge list of things planned for this release. This teaser is coming because this phase of the design and development is now complete, and I'm moving on to the next.
I may (or may not) post more teasers in the coming days/weeks, but would rather focus on development whenever possible to ensure a timely release. Please do not PM me regarding the new release, as this will only slow development.
Thanks, and keep slashin'!
Cool. An update might be coming in five months or so.
But this teaser is just a picture of a mob...
