addedVersion 7.21 of Hartacon Tactics has been released in the 'current' beta branch. Use password 'htcurrentbuild' to access it and opt in. This update brings substantial improvements to mouse controls for a faster and better gameplay experience. Below you see a sample of the improvements to the UI, with on-screen buttons to rotate and zoom the map, as well as new units and turns 'cards' which are now themed with the alliance graphics.
changedImprovements to the controls have been a pain point in reviews for this game for a long time, so I would love to hear your feedback and to understand from you if this is the right direction.
addedAlso if you have other suggestions on features you would like to see in the game, big or small, let me know. Currently I am considering adding consumables, extending the roster of campaigns to 16 units (with max 8 selectable for battles), wanderer units to save that join you.
changedIf you played the game for a while (I think when you reach a city in the campaign you have seen a bit of everything) and can take the time to share your thoughts in a review, that's great too. And if you reviewed the game in the past and feel like checking the improvements, that's super.
