Secret Government News

Greetings Brethren!

After more time spent meditating and decrypting the ancient texts, we have prepared another update for Secret Government - just as was foretold. This patch brings in so many different changes, fixes and additions that we'd like to spend some more time testing it, but we are already satisfied enough with the current state of it, that we'd like to allow you to access it as well.

Here are the instructions on how to switch to the latest version:

1. Go into your library, right-click Secret Government and select the "Properties" option.
   
2. In here, choose the "Betas" option
   
3. You should be able to choose a "beta - Secret Government open beta" beta from the drop-down menu above.
   
4. In your Steam library the Secret Government should now have [beta] tag behind it, which means that you are playing the beta branch.
   

If you'll come over any kind of bugs or issues, please report it using the CTRL+F11 bug reporting function or head over to our Steam Forums and let us know there.

As always, here is a huge THANK YOU to all members of our brotherhood who help us improve the game, by posting feedback and bug reports into our Steam forums - Thank you!❤️
