INFO REGARDING PRIOR SAVES:
As you've requested, we've added a new public branch named 'previous_game_version' for War Mongrels, which allows you to play the last game version, pre-patched. If you want to continue the game from a saved game state, please switch over to that branch, finish your current chapter, switch back to the 'default' branch and continue the journey with the latest fixes.
