As usual, if you'd like to receive more frequent updates about the development and a heads-up about release of the demo, follow me on Twitter at @bryquTheDev.

Also, do help me out reaching a bigger audience by telling about "This is The End" anyone who you think could be interested in this. Thanks in advance!
