Bowmaster Winter Storm Beta is now playable if you haven’t noticed. The game is constantly evolving with new updates every Friday (so far so good). Due to the frequency of changes it is not always possible to fully test the game and sometimes new features cause new issues. It is because of play testers like you that report new issues (see contact form) we’re able to find and fix bugs before the game is fully released. For this LostVectors is truly grateful.

I’ve had some recent major triumphs, some mini defeats and mini triumphs lately. In the not so distant past I had some issues with a memory leak in Winter Storm.

Tip: Use fire flak bombs against ice dragons.
