Alpha 8
We have the date for public early access:
[h3]18th August 2023[/h3]
Alpha 8 is out, bringing many new features to the game, among these, the upper house/senate which was as well a stretch goal during the Kickstarter campaign. I am now at work to the exclusive kickstarter edition that all backers will receive soon. Development is of course set to go on for many months which will bring the United Kingdom, multiplayer support as well as much more content!
Milestone news: Thanks to your precious support, I am thrilled to announce that I have commissioned the main theme for Lawgivers II 🎶
