Hey everyone!

With pride I'm announcing today that Dog Duty will leave Early Access and go into full release on 17 September 2020!

The Early Access period has been great, with a lot of player feedback, interaction and things added and improved to the game. We cannot thank you enough, but this doesn't mean that we're done with updates! Please keep your eyes on the Steam page for any news.

Seeya!

Hey all!

As Horde Mode recently made it into Dog Duty, there's been some new stuff that's been added into the game for this new game mode. Check it out:

• Added BotPods for automated defense
  
• Added 2 new turret modules: Hydra Rockets and Artillery
  
• Fixed issue that prevented placement of objects on certain tiles
  
• Squad now is automatically healed after wave complete
  
• Fixed an odd issue that blocked gamepad input on some certain conditions
  

Right now the developers are working on the shop screen when playing with a game pad, as right now we're aware that it looks quite messy ;)

Enjoy!
