NOTE: Demo players can't play with paid versions because... ask Steam I guess
A while back, I made the decision to make the game paid instead of free coming out of Early Access.
As much as I knew this would impact the player count, I had to do it to justify continuing to work on the game full time.
But now, I think I've found the perfect solution to my problems (just wish I'd thought of it earlier)
The game can now be played for free using the new downloadable demo!
The demo has restricted features, such as no ability to earn money or unlock cosmetics, no access to the level editor, and if you're hosting a game, you won't be able to play on Steam Workshop maps, only the built in default ones.
I feel like this allows players to experience the game, while also giving them some incentive to get the full version to help support the development of the game.
It's a win win!
So if you're one of those people that were disappointed the game is now paid, make sure to let everyone know that isn't the case anymore.
Next update I'll be working on AI tanks for those that still can't find a group to play with, so stay tuned!
Lots of love,
Finn
