- REMOVING A BUG ON STEAM... - 15 December 2018
Hi Everyone, Let's talk... As I continue my Game Development path there is one lingering bump in the road that I shudder when anyone mentions it... GiAnt. "A great concept, that never lives up to it's promise." That was once a review of GiAnt, and it's honesty is spot on. GiAnt was the first game I ever released under the 'Wreck Tangle Games' name, and although it will always remain in my heart, it's also become a bit of a dampener when the 'Wreck Tangle Games' name creeps up in conversation. It was a game that possibly I shouldn't have released, I should have saved it as a practise run before the next game became the first release. I learnt so much from GiAnt, true, but as my game development path continues to get stronger, I don't think GiAnt expresses my abilities as a developer now. If a new player found GiAnt first, I am damn sure that they wouldn't play any more Wreck Tangle's gam…

- **MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT** REVERTING TO EARLY ACCESS and APOLOGIES - 26 May 2016
Hello everyone, First off, thank you to everyone who has bought the game so far! You are all stars! And I appreciate you all! It has come to mine and Valves attention that the Game has issues. A lot of you are writing emails to me and writing on the hub with quite a few problems with the game, whether it be bugs, issues with the mechanics or just plain anger at how difficult GiAnt is. I think it is clear that this game isn't quite correct yet. When you are a solo developer and you work on a game every single day for a year, I believe you become quite blind to problems in your own game (this is why major games company hire testers), so after testing 480+ times myself I thought it was done... But it is far from! You have all made it clear that this game has great potential but it falls down on itself! And I just can't let that happen!! So now... I am asking you all to be my Testers. This…
- UPDATE 1 - Fixed death, candy and graphics - 22 May 2016
2 days since release and you have all been very helpful in pointing out some issues with the game. Death -The main one being the death script being completely broken. When you died, it would not restart the level, rather forced you to exit the whole game. This has now been rectified. Tutorial screen - when you start the Garden level a quick tutorial screen comes up, but this was very messy. I have cleared this up and made it easier to understand. Candy - People have been getting confused when there candy goes missing because an enemy ate it... This was a good idea on paper, as these candy points were going to add up at the end of the level/game. I have taken this feature out for now until it is more refined. Enemies now CANNOT eat your candy. So six candies per level to open the exit, should always be 6. Lastly some graphical fixes, mainly to reflections. Please - If you find any issues…
- Demo reverted back to Alpha build - 21 May 2016
It has come to my attention that the official demo released had a few bugs, so I have reverted it back to the original alpha version until further notice. These issues will be ironed out in the next few days. I have also noted down some common issues people are having with the main game, these will also be squashed in the next few days, thank you for your patience while I deal with this matter
- DEMO UPDATED! OUT OF ALPHA INTO OFFICIAL - 20 May 2016
For the past 5 months since releasing the Alpha demo I have been working hard on completing the game and getting out there! Finally the day has come for release! To celebrate I have updated the demo to how it looks in the final game, complete with power-ups, more audio to help you find the candy (as well as help orbs to show you where candy is) and best of all... No 10 minute time limit, the demo is limitless up until you find the 6 candies and return to the nest. Thank you to everyone who has been on the journey with me so far! Hope you enjoy the full version of GiAnt
