Important information about our demo!
Hi all - we have an important update regarding our Steam demo! 🧑‍🏫
Tomorrow morning (at 10AM CET) we’re going to be deactivating the current public demo on Steam in order to update it with a new and improved version, which will go live on March 26th. This demo will also be 100% free, available until launch, and will feature several improvements over the previous build, mostly focused on Skirmish mode and enemy AI, but also with several bug fixes and QoL updates. 🎉
What does this mean for me?
If you’ve already downloaded and installed the demo, you’ll still be able to play it outside Steam even while we upload the new one. Once the new version is uploaded, you can update your version via Steam and enjoy the new content! If you don’t have it downloaded, you can grab it and install it still today before it’s delisted and keep that version to play until the new demo goes live on March 26th.
Will we update the Demo on other platforms?
Yes! The Demo will be uploaded on other platforms as well!
What’s in the new version?

Skirmish:
General Improvements:
Cheers!
