I'm happy to announce that Operation STEEL is no available in a bundle with two other awesome shmups released in 2022 as part of the Indie Shmup Bundle! If you don't have Dead End City or TerraFlame yet I highly recommend picking up the bundle and getting them at a discount :) In other news, I have been trying to get Steam Deck Verified status for Op. STEEL - very close right now but there are still some in-game text that is too small (OK, there are a couple... but nothing that is important while playing the game.) I'll make another update if I take another pass and get the verification. Thanks for reading!

- v1.4.0 - 18 September 2022
Changelog: I've upgraded the engine to the latest version of Godot, hopefully some performance improvements might come through.
