Dude holy shit!! Just checked this page wondering if there was a new update and goddamn you've been hard at work. The new menu and user interface looks fantastic, and no fucking way was I expecting the hangar. Dude this is nuts, the quality of life changes do so much for immersion. The mission screen, the hangar, even just the addition of the dropship at the start of missions are such cool touches, I really appreciate all the little bits of artistry you've implemented.
Also the new weapons and mission! Mission 5 has got to be your best yet, I had such a blast playing it. Gave the smoke grenades a try as well and they were everything I hoped, they let you be so aggressive. Just in general as well the combination of sound and visual design, all the weapons sound so powerful and clearly do so much damage, feels incredible just firing them.
I also really appreciate your design sense for all the mecha/vehicles, they'd all feel right at home in a 90s sci-fi anime. Actually mentioning the dropship again, I don't know why but its design is just fucking awesome.
I don't really have any critique honestly, game feels and looks incredible. I'm super excited to see what you come up with :) also how did you do the map/what software did you use?
