Warp Ahead update and Steam Discount!

Check out the latest update for our last game, Blade Symphony, too!

We're incredibly excited about this. After three years of silence, we have a new update for Galacide with tons of improvements.

The Warp Ahead update brings Galacide from Unreal Engine 4.10.1 to 4.20.1, and now we have Steam Controller Support and Mouse Control on all of the menus, along with many changes below!

This is a big step for us, as we've been keeping the engine updated for quite some time, but haven't been able to push an udpate. Stay tuned to our Discord for more updates!

• Added mouse control to the main menu, pause menu, and level select screens
  
• Added a “hold [key] to ready” prompt to the ship select screen

• Updated credits
  
• Changed tutorial to be more comprehensive

We've pushed the Warp Ahead update for Linux, but as we are a small team, have limited equipment for testing. Our initial tests have shown some potential framerate issues, and our testers have seen small graphical problems, but we would love your feedback in our forums or Discord to navigate and address any issues you may find on Linux.
