Lower price and the reason behind it

Thank you to everyone checking out the game in this first week since release! Extra thank you to all the lovely active members of the community on the server, I've been having a ton of fun!
Some of you may have noticed that the [b]price [/b]of the game was halved a day ago from 10 USD to [b]5 USD[/b]. The TL;DR of why I did this is mainly from watching the stats behind the scenes and from gathering feedback. It seems that for what the game appears to be on the store page, the price was way too much, so I decided to change it now while it's early so that more people get the chance to play. If you want more details you can read [url=https://www.reddit.com/r/gamedev/comments/1eez40f/i_released_my_first_game_and_i_feel_mixed/]this reddit post[/url] from me, but keep in mind it's a bit more negative sounding than what I actually feel right now (especially after the post I feel really good generally speaking, in part due to you guys).
I sincerely want to [b]apologize [/b]to anyone that bought the game at its full price. It looks awful changing the price so suddenly from one day to another, and I completely understand if you feel scammed. I give you my word this was never my intention, and again I want to deeply apologize. I just think that reducing the price is the best thing I could have done for the game. Again, for more context, please read the reddit post. If you can still refund, feel free to do so.
Regardless, thank you so much for supporting the game. I want to try to give an exclusive [b]in-game reward[/b] of some sort to the people that bought the game early on, but I'm still coming up with ideas.
[h3]For the rest of you, [b]now the game costs less than 5 USD and the 10% discount is still up for ~2 hours[/b], so if you were on the fence before, this is a great opportunity to jump in![/h3]
Again the reddit post title is a bit baity on purpose, I don't actually feel mixed I'm quite happy actually!
Also, I'll try to release the game on itch soon, and the linux build should be up and hopefully stable, although likely not as good as before performance-wise.
