Steam Next Fest Demo - Known Issues

General

No controller support in this demo, it will be available for release.
No rebinding is possible in this demo, it will be available for release.
Some options reset when you return to the Main Menu (e.g. tooltip delays or screen edge panning)
Can't zoom in/out, it will be available for release.
Minor graphical problems when the game is played in lower graphics quality: strategic map and Boss Art are not centered.
A small graphic artifact at the bottom of the screen that looks like a gray square may appear at times.
Some UI elements are in the foreground and hide certain menus if they are not closed beforehand: typically, mission tooltips are displayed above the Pause menu or options.

Crash & Blockers

Rare: crash when loading Boss level.
Rare: sometimes validate buttons do not work.
- Workaround: reboot the game and click Continue.

Tutorial

When opening the Pause menu or performing unscripted actions (e.g. pressing a Reset Turn when the game asks for something else), crashes and soft locks may occur.
- Workaround: Avoid straying from tutorial instructions. If you encounter a soft Lock/crash, going back to the Main Menu and starting a new game will restart the tutorial from the beginning.
Some tutorial panels may hide the pause menu (you can close these panels).
Tutorial restarts if you return to Main Menu in the middle of it/after finishing it the first time.

Soldier Select - Barracks - Armory

If you open the description of an Asset in the Armory and start a run, the description will appear on the screen throughout the run.
- Workaround: Return Soldier Select when restarting a game, open Armory, Select an Asset, then go to a weapon profile.
If you buy an item in the Barracks/Armory and return to the Main Menu, the purchase is canceled and the money is returned to the player. The game saves only after restarting a run.

In-Game

It is possible to start a run without any unit selected.
Workaround: Return to the main menu and relaunch a run with "Start a new game".
It is currently impossible to reread explanatory texts once closed, a codex is planned for release.
The objective counter is not reset by pressing "Reset Turn".
Victory/defeat screen: The exit button is sometimes inactive/not clickable.
Workaround: Restart the game to continue.
Switches and cranes still have their "Use" UI then even after use (when they are no longer usable).
The "SAVE" IU for prisoners remains displayed after releasing them.
Layering and transparency issues at times affect the visibility of characters and enemies.
The same applies to preview movements, especially when there are elevation changes or jumps.
Loss of FPS when using Grenade Juggle - especially on the second attack.
Trampolines remain displayed after a reset but are not functional.
Sometimes targets don't have the target over their heads to recognize them.
- Workaround: Move mouse over Objective to highlight targets
Sync preview missing when targeting an enemy on a wooden box. Sync will still take place normally.
On some dual-target attacks, pressing repeatedly on the same target increments an infinite number of damage but never performs the attack.
- Workaround: cancel the attack and restart by selecting 2 different targets

Boss fight

Some performance issues may occur after a few turns.

METAL SLUG TACTICS IS COMING IN 2023

Aug 11, 2022

Greetings soldiers,

One year ago, we told you that we were working on Metal Slug Tactics. Today, a year later, our teams at Leikir Studio and Dotemu have made the difficult decision to postpone the game to 2023.

Rest assured, we are working really hard to make Metal Slug Tactics as explosive as possible on release, but for that, we need a bit more time in the shop to prepare for the battles ahead.

Soldiers, we would like to thank you all for the everlasting love and support you have given us since the reveal. See you in 2023!
