2022-05-20 - Third content release for early access Minus one chapter for this release, we have decided that chapter three is too "grindy" and the story we want to tell with it can be told in the following chapter. For that reason we have merged chapter three and four. We will still deliver nine chapters in the final release. We've also prepared the code needed for more in chapter stories, so be ready for that in the coming releases. Emanuele is working on some nice comic book inspired cutscenes, that will start coming out next Friday. Also expect another chapter on Friday.

2022-05-06 - First content release for early access We have been listening to the feedback you guys gave us. You felt that there was a dominant strategy, to fix this we rebalanced some of the responses to avoid that one response feels superior. More balancing will come in the future as well. Some felt that the game does not reveal its strategy, to improve on this we made a how-to-play video that you can watch from the main menu.
