  • Improved combat with deeper combat mechanics

  • Enemy towers: destroy them all to win a map. But be prepared - you’ll be attacked with greater force!

  • Map editor, create and share your own maps

  • New river map scenario

  • New units leveling system

  • Enemy paths, you can see how enemies will move across the map

  • Mini-bosses, each is dangerous in it's own way

  • You can call militia at night to help you fight

  • Hundreds of new sounds

  • A lot of old bugs was fixed and hopefully not much new was created

Performance is greatly improved now, bigger cities and fights will run much more smoothly. Also game works pretty good on Steam Deck, give it a try if you have one.

There are still some bugs there that we want to fix before release on March 24, thought game should generally work fine. Let us know if you encounter any problems here or on discord.
