Hey everyone! I’m thrilled to announce that #Everest won “Best Use of Theme” in the 2016 Little Awful Jam! The contest isn’t over yet, though, as we’re up for the Community Choice award. Please help us win by voting for “Hashtag Everest” here, then see how we can make a good thing even better by downloading the latest release! You’re all in for a treat with this one because we made a HUGE number of updates to the game and now the game that won an award for being chill is even more chill than before! See how we pulled that off by getting #Everest v.1.2.0 right here!
