You can also get the Strategic Mind Complete Collection bundle to save 20% on all our titles. So, if you are missing only the Strategic Mind: Fight for Freedom in your collection you can get a nice flat 20% off here:

https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/16499/Strategic_Mind_Complete_Collection/

We consider this bundle to be a form of loyalty discount - the veteran players get a 20% off bonus right at the release. Note, that it might take Steam 10-15 minutes after release to add the Strategic Mind: Fight for Freedom into the bundle. If you do not see the game there - just check back on it in 10 minutes.

1 Day Left! Release Celebration and Klabater Publisher Sale

Hello, guys!

There is only one day left before the Strategic Mind: Fight for Freedom release, and we are ready to start Starni games release celebration with nice discounts for all our previous titles. Do not worry - we will add Strategic Mind: Fight for Freedom to the Strategic Mind Complete Collection bundle - and if you have all other titles, you would be able to get it alone with a 20% bundle discount.

[h2]Starni Games x Klabater cooperation[/h2]

Today, we have a special event in store for you. Last year we partnered with the Klabater company to produce and publish console ports for the Strategic Mind: The Pacific and Strategic Mind: Blitzkrieg. So, the Klabater team is hard at work producing the ports and plan to have them ready later this year.

Starting 20 May there will be a week-long Klabater publisher sale on Steam and they kindly invited us to participate as their partners with the Strategic Mind series. While we are in charge of the PC publishing, the console release will be done by the Klabater team and we all are rooting for its success. We will keep you informed about the console porting progress.

Klabater publisher sale on Steam will last from 20 to 27 May and will feature many interesting titles - so, we invite you to check it out:

It is really interesting how the event has almost coincided with the Strategic Mind: Fight for Freedom release, so we decided to combine our release celebration with the Klabater event. We are really thankful to the Klabater team for offering us this great opportunity.

Please, let us know what you think of this idea and which cool games you found at a discount there.

🔥 Do miss the Strategic Mind: Fight for Freedom release tomorrow at 19.00 CET (10.00 am PDT).

2 Days Left! Developer’s Diaries: New Music Tracks Added to the Soundtrack



Only two days left before the Strategic Mind: Fight for Freedom release and we are happy to announce that we have already uploaded all new tracks to the Strategic Mind Franchise Soundtrack. All owners of the Soundtrack can just update it to get all the new additions. If you do not have it yet, you can check it out here:

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1358280/Strategic_Mind_Franchise_Soundtrack/

Strategic Mind Franchise Soundtrack is shared across all current and future Strategic Mind titles and is updated every time the new titles comes out - so you only need to purchase it once to get it all.
Additionally, we use the funds raised through the soundtrack sales to add more music, especially historical tracks into our games. In the soundtrack all additional tracks added thanks to the soundtrack supporters are marked as [community funded].

We have two main types of music tracks: cinematic ones (that used in cinematics) and gameplay (used during the actual playthrough). Below are a couple of tracks we created for the cinematics. In one of our next dispatches we will share with you a couple of the community supported tracks for the Strategic Mind: Fight for Freedom as well.

When we first thought about adding a separate soundtrack, part of our team was very skeptical about it. Our games are not that popular, and the success of the soundtrack seemed very unlikely. Yet, we decided to give it a go and see that will work out. The results exceeded our expectations by far, and helped us add a lot of great music into our latest titles. We hope to build on this good start and develop the Strategic Mind series not only gameplay-wise, but also in terms of sound and other important elements of the game.

Please, let us know what you think about the way the project is directed and what you think about the new tracks.
