Solace Inc v1.9 Prerelease Beta
[p]Hey gang! Long time no see, just wanted to announce that not only is a new update for Solace Inc coming soon, but a pre-release version is now available for you to check out![/p][p][/p][p]![]()
[/p][p]This is a pretty sizable update, so I figured it would be best to put out a pre-release build prior to releasing it so that I can get some feedback, if you'd like to try it out head over to the game properties on Steam and go to Betas > Beta Participation > Prerelease and then verify game files to make sure it downloaded (it should say v1.9 on the title screen)[/p][p][/p][p]![]()
