- New and improved Skábma 1.1! - 14 December 2022
In the last couple of weeks, we have been able to enhance the Skábma experience even more! As many of you already know: we game devs are often perfectionists and might find things to improve in our games.

We are now the latter: very proud and happy. So what have we done? Firstly: players who played Skábma when it was launched might find this game quite different - in a good way.
