• Updated Unity Engine to version 6.1.10.

Fixes:

• Fixed collider position for shorter avatars

The latest 0.8 update for the Astro Protocol Demo brings several improvements:

• Saving and Loading - You can now pause your conquest of the stars and continue your game later.

• More sound effects and music - Start turn, colonization and unit selection sound effects and one new music track

• Countless AI Improvements - We’ve made significant AI upgrades and bug fixes to improve how the AI opponents play.

• Countless quality of life improvement - Clearer map colors, more tooltips, etc.

• Countless bug fixes

We’re now focusing on redesigning the victory conditions to make endgame goals more dynamic and competitive:

• The current "accumulate points every turn" system will be replaced with objective-based victory points.

• You’ll gain points by meeting key conditions like: "Control 6 planets" or "Control 14 stations".

• These victory points are not permanent, they’re granted only while you meet the conditions and can be lost if your control slips.

• The first player to reach the required victory point total wins the game.

• These victory conditions and the amount of victory points they give will be randomized for each game.

We believe this will create more tension, strategic battles over critical systems, and fewer passive "wait and win" scenarios.

• Revamped UI to improve visual appearance and consistency
  
• Added option screen. Most notable controls are a slider to reduce false negatives, and the ability to control which controls are shootable.

Fixed UI sizes for Steam Deck

Ready your calendars as the July 31st is the big-big-release day! Perfect thing to do during summer heat waves, as it's too hot to be outside! Skip work to play, your boss won't notice as they will be playing GG-AG as well! Mention it to your favourite streamer/youtuber, buy 10 copies and give them away on the street!

"Wait..." I hear some of you say, wasn't the game supposed to be out already? As some of you might have noticed already on the steam page, after the Summer Next Fest demo feedback, we realised the game needs a bit more time in the oven to address common complaints, and to add more stuff!

What stuff you ask? Well, if you were to join our community discord you could find a whole long post with planned updates, as well as our current progress! Or, if someone asks I will just paste it in the comments, who knows!
