New patch, progress on the campaign, and backer surveys

Hello there, we prepared a new update for you!

Dieselpunk Wars Prologue launched last week and now everybody can give it a shot! We learned a lot from that and we would like to thank everybody who posted their feedback or Steam reviews! Thanks to your aid we now know exactly what we need to focus on before the full version of Dieselpunk Wars launches. We already started working on incorporating your feedback into both, the full game and the Prologue. As a result, we have a new patch ready for you!

Improvements:

• Added additional quick selection bars to the module panel at the bottom of the screen - you can now toggle between four separate panels and assign different parts to each of them!
• Small tweak to vehicle maneuverability, in preparation for future improvements.
• You can now rotate blocks using the < and > keys (in addition to the mouse wheel).

Fixes:

• Added missing lines of text in the Russian translation.
• Fixed an issue where English translation would sometimes appear instead of the Russian translation.
• Camera will no longer move when you type something into the search bar in Build Mode.
• Mouse cursor should no longer display when moving the camera in Photo Mode (F11).
• Vehicles can now properly aim and fire at targets above them.

Other:

• We removed the option to change the game language from the main menu due to the numerous issues it caused. You can still set your language via the properties on Steam. Simply right-click on the game in your Steam library, select properties, go to the "Language" tab, and choose the language you want to use.

As for what else is happening in our studio - our team is now focused on finishing the campaign, balancing individual modules, and designing enemy vehicles for the player to face. It's a lot of tedious work but it's nothing we can't handle! We're also working on the behavior of enemy bosses and the way they appear in the cutscenes. We don't want to spoil anything but we might as well show you concept art for one of the most important vehicles in the game.

Finally, you might be wondering about your backer rewards. Don't worry, we will send you backer surveys regarding your rewards within the coming days! Some of the rewards are already worked on but we will need your input to implement the rest of them. We will also use these surveys to gather your names (or nicknames) to add to the game's credits. So keep an eye out for any new messages you receive!

That's everything for this update. We hope you're doing well! Good luck in your gaming adventures and remember to give Dieselpunk Wars Prologue a try if you haven't done so already ;)
