Here is our third QoL patch dubbed, "Sad Anger Reset". It has a bunch of UI improvements, bug fixes, and most importantly, some extra features like being able to view a renegade's unlockable powers from the squad screen and the ability to rewind back to the start of the previous round of combat (only once per run for now).

Changelog:

• Combo Powers are now listed at the bottom of the powers list, but still above Defend
• Random AoE Flurry attacks now explicitly state exact damage predictions (enemy only)

Until next time, Renegades!

Hey Renegades! Here's our second quality of life update along with some balance changes. We've given the Paragon, Juggernaut, and the Overseers some love along with some much needed balancing to some effects from Gear that were just too powerful, especially when stacked together. We hope that you feel the changes are fair and if you think otherwise, please feel free to give us some feedback on our Steam Forums or Discord server!

In addition, if you're a diehard fan who "likes the way it used to be", we're opening up additional Beta branches so that you can play on older major versions. However, we would HIGHLY recommend backing up your save files before playing with these builds as switching back and forth between versions can be unstable and we don't want anything to happen to your save files. A quick and easy way to do that is to hit CTRL-F12 from the Title Screen and it'll copy all your save files to your desktop into a folder called "SR_Bug_Report". To restore these files, simply paste them in to your Documents/Star Renegades folder.
