Hey gang, I've been cooking up the next Solace Inc. update and I've released a new build on the prerelease beta branch for folks to try out!
To access the prerelease branch, right click on Solace Inc. in your Steam library, then go to Properties > Betas > Beta Participation then click on Prerelease
The major addition to this update is the new Chrono Corp mode, where you can play as Solace Inc.'s rivals, Chrono Corp! To swap to Chrono Corp, just click on the button on the top right on the mission select screen
Playing as Chrono Corp doesn't just add new characters, it fundamentally changes how the game is played (such as the bar on the right being an energy bar for recruiting troops instead of a levelling up bar, and you can have multiple of the same troop) along with some other new mechanics
There's also some other additions when playing as Solace Inc such as new recruits/alternates, as well as a new Daily Boost where up to three recruits are selected at random each day and will be boosted, increasing their damage and attack speed (they will show up as purple like this)
There's also discord rich presence now! Cool!
This isn't all I plan on adding to the update, I still want to add more things like new missions, new minibosses, and more, this is mostly just a preview to get feedback on
If you encounter any issues, feel free to DM me on Discord (@aplove) and I'll try to get back to you asap (ludum dare is this weekend so I might be busy)
Have fun!
