Iktsua is a mangling of the Inuit word "Iktsuarpok". This word is untranslatable into english but means something like: "The feeling of anticipation that leads you to go outside and check if anyone is coming". The reason we chose this as the name was because the game is based on a coming of age story, where an Inuit/Eskimo boy goes into the wilderness to become a man while his family anxiously waits for his return.
It's great how often you release updates to your game. I'm checking every day. :)

Thanks! We love to respond to and implement feedback, so rapid releases are a must for us! Most of the releases are brought on by play testers or youtube LPers who we see have difficulty somewhere that we think we can fix. The biggest updates will come starting next month when we add a ton new features.
