I'm slowly building a roadmap towards a release, and with this demo the main focus was on creating a better experience for players which also makes the demo more usable for Streamers to showcase the game. So in the coming weeks/months I will be able to contact various streamers and see if they are interested in taking it for a spin.
Regulator City will also be part of various events and things requiring a good demo, so I'm REALLY happy I got this out the door!
A large amount of work has also been put into tweaking and perfecting the interaction with your Squad mates and also the enemies. It's a big improvement over the last demo, so make sure to check it out! (And don't forget to Wishlist the game)
