Hello! Just a quick note to mention that development continue at a stiff pace! The game has now been playtested by over 100 hardy souls, and I think I'm starting to really get dialed in on the game balance. Features and bug fixes are coming fast and furious as well; there is now an online leaderboard, as well as Beginner and Expert scenarios. The Beginner scenario is pretty much done, but the Expert scenario is best considered still a work in progress.
I wanted to mention something else, briefly; recently I encountered some constructive feedback that perhaps the mere existence of this game is inappropriate, seeing as how it might be construed as making light of or otherwise profiting off of a terrible conflict. I get that. That is 100% not what I'm going for. This is not a money-making operation; any donations or money I receive will be immediately donated to United24 to help support Ukrainians. I want to be clear: writing this game is a labor of love, from me to Ukraine and Ukrainians, and the goal is to increase awareness the only way I know how: through gaming. Hopefully that comes across in the tone of the game.
Slava Ukraini!
