Relentless Expanse has been released in Early Access! I'm excited to see everyone try it out and give me their thoughts! Thank you to everyone that playtested the game so far and gave feedback, it was extremely helpful! For those playtesters, here are the patch notes for those that have played since the last update:
- AI will now more aggressively push advantages and focus less on expanding to neutral planets, I’ll be keeping an eye on this to see if this causes any weird behavior or if it makes the AI weaker rather than stronger
- When you select planets you can now see the total amount of ships that you have selected on those planets at the bottom of the screen, and whenever you’re sending ships to another planet it will also display the number of ships that you would be sending
- You can now press “R” to automatically select every planet that you control
- Added a LOT of new sound effects and 3 new music soundtracks! One plays whenever you’re in a lobby, another plays randomly in-game, and the last one plays some “final showdown” style music whenever there are only 2 players remaining!
- Fixed a lot of bugs (including the one where defensive platforms had extremely long range) and made a few minor QoL improvements

For this update, we mainly focused on general maintenance for the game, but there's still a new map from last month's event, and we decided to get a little experimental with a new font (mwahahaha >:) ALSO, before I get to the exact changes, I wanted to let everyone know that we have a Ko-fi now!
