...which is funny if you think about it. Who would put a slug on a leash? Can't they just slide on out? Anyway - Our September update is live!
Rise of the Techno Slugs!
This update comes not only with a whole new Empire to play, but with tons of bug fixes, art updates, fx updates, game balance, audio updates and general polish throughout. There’s still a lot to do, but this is a big and tasty one. We probably won’t see another update this big until we come out of Early Access, so enjoy!
