4) Improved Performance

Upgraded to Unity 6 and made a lot of adjustments, which led to much better performance.

FPS seems to be up to 50% higher (specially when there are lots of units simultaneosly).

Nobody has ever complained about performance. However, as the game grows, I think it's important to do constant maintenance so it continues to run smoothly!

And plenty of fixing minor issues and combat balancing.

The game is almost ready for Early Access, only a few weeks from now!

Thanks a lot to all the players that have been giving great feedback!

More updates coming soon
