Thank you for voting for Steampunker! Congratulations to all other TOP5 game developers!

On Monday our Indiegogo campaign ended. We raised money needed for improving the existing iPad version and developing the iPhone and Android versions which will be available by the end of January. We also plan to release the PC and Mac versions in 2015 but there are no specific dates for them.

Happy New Year to all the game developers and gamers community!
