Greetings, friends!

This week we updated the public demo build — added new features, improved existing systems and fixed a number of issues:

Fixed camera movement issues when moving the cursor to the edge of the screen.
Object highlighting ('H' key) now also highlights enemies and positions for cover.
Added an Unstuck option ('U' key): if a character gets stuck, they will be moved to the nearest valid position.
Fixed several critical errors.
Improved text localizations.

Please note that the early playtest format is no longer available for new users. To access the demo, use the “Download Red Recon: 1944 Demo” button on the game’s Steam page:

Don’t worry, the demo and the former playtest version are completely identical in terms of content.

We've also prepared a step-by-step instruction on how to change in-game language in case Red Recon: 1944 launches in Russian.

Last but not the least: don't forget to share you thoughts about the current Demo in our Steam discussions. Feedback helps us making Red Recon: 1944 even better.
