Since launch yesterday, Rebel Inc: Escalation has been doing wonderfully - getting to #5 on the Steam Bestsellers chart, (as well as #1 in the Strategy, Simulation and Indie categories). We also had 5 thousand people simultaneously tune in to watch us play on Steam Broadcast.
Thanks so much to everyone for your support - leaving reviews, tagging the game and telling your friends about the game make a huge difference to how the game does.
We are already hard at work prepping the first content update (Tank Commander) but we are also focused on fixing various bugs and quality of life fixes and we just released Hotfix 0.5.3.
Hotfix 0.5.3 changelog
- Forts now have a 'sheen' animation on appearance like the HQ does.
- Long text strings fit better in UI
- Improved support for ultra wide resolutions (Advisors in particular)
- Bug with scroll view for various UI fixed
- Using hotkeys no longer breaks the tutorial flow
- Rare bug with Zone screen and Region screen pie charts fixed
- Region screen opens faster
- Fixed a bug where moving a soldier was hard if it was close to a decision or fort. Soldier / decision HQ / rebel base / etc clicking order is now correct.
- Rebel base visual logic fix - model and icon show correctly based on intel. Base has a combat icon.
- Distant steppe HQ overview glitching terrain fix
- Improved concrete for HQ drone cam as it upgrades
- Airstrike explosions now correctly target rebel base rather than appearing at edge of zone
More to come! :)
