Minor tuning changes and bug fixes.

"Applications that were built using affected versions of the Unity Editor are susceptible to an unsafe file loading and local file inclusion attack depending on the operating system, which could enable local code execution or information disclosure at the privilege level of the vulnerable application. There is no evidence of any exploitation of the vulnerability nor has there been any impact on users or customers. Unity has provided fixes that address the vulnerability and they are already available to all developers."

We appreciate your feedback, we’re continuing to build this galaxy together with you.

The campaign just got spicier! You can now Disrupt your Rival’s attacks — no longer must you hide behind cards and fancy strategies alone. Timing, reflexes, and skill now play a role in crushing your opponent’s ambitions.

But that’s not all! Weather now changes your strategy — will you keep your fiery card streak blazing, or adapt to the winds of political chaos to seize the weather bonuses?

And for your precious eyes — rejoice!
We’ve given the UI a full Quality of Life makeover. No more staring at dull tables, cluttered overlays, or graphs that make you question your career choices. You can now toggle away the noise and focus on what truly matters: winning the hearts (and votes) of the people!

We’ve received reports from players seeing invisible car bodies or floating seats and engines in the Indian Mechanic Simulator Demo.
This issue occurs only on Intel graphics cards due to a temporary shader compatibility problem.

✅ The good news:

• The game works normally on AMD and NVIDIA GPUs.

• A fix for Intel GPUs is already being tested and will be included in the next update / full version.

If you’re using an Intel system, don’t worry — your hardware will be supported in the full game.

Thank you for your patience and understanding, and for helping us make the game better! 💪
Please continue sharing feedback in the discussions — every report helps us improve.

Thanks for reporting these!
