Dear agents, please welcome update 0.17! This update brings a new game mode and makes the end game more challenging. The UI got some polish here and there for your convenience. And, of course, more bugs have been fixed.



When starting a new game, you can now choose between ‘Classic’ or ‘Custom’ mode. Custom mode lets you tweak game mechanics to fit your needs. We’ve created some presets you can start off with : ‘Easy’, ‘Normal’ and ‘Hard’. Leaderboards, achievements and agent unlock are disabled when playing a custom game.
If you have some suggestions about options that could be added, please let us know!



To make the end game more challenging, the AIs will now be able to develop the Sigma project as well. So you’ll have to be more aggressive and disrupt your opponents research if you want to win the technological race. Good luck with that!

Modding tools (via Steam Workshop) are taking life slowly and we hope to have a first iteration for you in the next update. We are firstly aiming at localization tools and character creation (agents and diplomats).
Spouse mechanics rework and new scoring system are also on the way.
