Hello explorers!

Raider Kid launched exactly one week ago, and despite its stealth release, it's getting such an overwhelmingly positive response that even we couldn't have predicted!

Just earlier today, we achieved 50 reviews on Steam (and all of them positive, so far🤯), which changes our displayed rating to Very Positive 🥳 On top of that, people are slowly finding out about the game on YouTube and Reddit, where it has been receiving insanely positive reviews for such a humble game. It even was the first microvania to make it to the A-tier in MetroidvaniaGuru's Tier List 🤯🤯🤯

• MetroidvaniaGuru (8/10) - "Its exploration is far more ambitious than you would expect from a microvania."
• GameBlast (8/10) - "The best thing is how tight the exploration loop is. It flows intuitively while still demanding to keep eyes open for secret passages and breakable blocks."
• Higher Plain Games - (8.5/10) "Raider Kid and the Ruby Chest is an absolute joy to play and I wholeheartedly recommend it".
• Pixel Opinions - "Raider Kid is a delightfully cute and charming indie title that punches well above its weight class".
• Overloadr (Portuguese) - "It enters that 'games for a delicious weekend' category".

On top of that, we've got a growing speedrunning community discussing strategies on our Discord. Highlights to:

• HurricaneOf87's Any% in 24:21. He has also started routing 100% runs!
• Potater hands Any% in 22:54
• We also have our artist Lumi adventuring into 100% runs and currently holding the best time for them!

We've also streamed the game 3 times on the Steam page - Including a celebratory AMA session with the whole team, where we share easter eggs and development secrets! Check it out if you haven't yet!
