I come with good tidings, after a long wait in the void between death and undeath, we bring you a glorious update.
 

Recent advances in janitor based technology, due in no small part to the research done by the company’s mining department, have resulted in a new, overpowered and potentially destructive device for use by all janitors with the aim of repairing bullet hole dotted walls.
 

The new Welding Laser will allow janitors to not only patch bullet holes, but also make new holes! Modern technology eh, wondrous stuff. Janitors are required to safely follow company regulations, and not burn everything in sight once the evil machine spirits have possessed you.
 
 

The game now also features the much desired Save Game system! No longer will janitors have to be oppressed. They can eat a cheese burger or burrito along with their Jingo-Pop, and management will be none the wiser…unless they leave evidence, which would be rather stupid of you.
 

This version also comes with a great deal more fixes and improvements!
See for yourself!

This version, like the former, is only available to those who have purchased VCD, so if you haven’t done so already, then perhaps you should. For a small $7.00 fee you get to cleanup the mess of others, who can say no to that!
Pre-Order now!
 

Otherwise, if you have already purchased it, be sure to check your Humble Store account for the download!

On another note, VCD will be making its way to Steam Early Access, so be sure to keep an eye(or two) out for that!
And when I say out, I don’t mean pull your eyes out of their sockets, that would be…eeeh, creepy to say the least, you freak!

 
Now feast your eyes(if they are still there) on these delicious images(no they are not edible, get help!).

 

I’m afraid I may have lied, there are in fact no burritos, but I sure got your attention, eh, eh!..ahem
