I'm pleased to announce the release of Unicopia's final alpha (v0.2.5), the last release before I start cranking out the beta. 

And as a special thank you to itch.io supporters, and for a limited time only, v0.2.5 is being published with full access to all of the games 40 levels.

While I still need to add cut-scenes, add various meta-game and online features, and do a lot more difficulty balancing, this alpha gives you a chance to see the full game in its raw state. I'm also looking for any more feedback, and will be invite the keenest commenters  to join the Discord when the closed beta testing starts.

May the realms of retro rainbows bring colour to your life!
