Greetings, heroes!
It's been a couple of months since we started our closed beta, and we've gained tons of valuable feedback. While our loyal backers have access to monthly new builds, we want you to become a part of our journey as well. As promised to many of you who reached out in the last few months, it is time to update our public demo with new assets, upgrades and features so you can get a current feel for how our tactical gameplay is shaping up.
Get version 0.6.3 here! We'd love to hear your thoughts, feedback and suggestions for the 0.6.3 demo in our Steam communities or our own forums.
