A surprising thing happened today. After three months of hard work, I looked at the game and realized: it's ready for Early Access. There's nothing big left on the list — only polishing and balancing what's already there.
What that means in practice:— All four factions are finished. Mutants, raiders, the alien hive and the machines — each with its own roster, habits and dirty tricks: acid pools, harpoons that drag your steering, EMP blasts that silence your wagons, and a speaker truck whose metal drives the whole gang into a frenzy.— Every invasion point has its own final boss. The Patriarch, the War Rig, the Hive Queen and the Goliath are waiting in their lairs. For the first time ever, you can clear the entire globe — destroy every enemy down to the last hex.— The base got more flexible. Which wagon to unlock next — repair, generator or cargo — is now your choice, not the upgrade order's. Same for weapons.— Steam Cloud is on — your saves now travel between machines.What's still missing is a victory screen. That's the very next update.And now the important part. I need your feedback more than ever — your reviews, wishes and complaints are what decides what gets polished first. Post in the discussions, rate the game right from inside it, roast my balance. I read everything.Thanks for riding this train with me. 🚂
