More popups = more information = well-informed tactical decisions

Overview

Teasers

The game now shows you some noteworthy scores from the Steam leaderboard* to give you something to aim for. It will try to pick scores from your friends, other players who are just above you and the player who has the #1 spot.

* requires you to be running the Steam version, obviously. Every purchase on itch.io includes a free Steam key!

Menu Popups

Lots more popups that appear next to your mouse cursor when you hover it over menu items. These aim to explain some of the more ambiguous or complex icons and options.

More Popup Options

Don't like the aforementioned popups? You can turn them off. In addition, you now have more control over which types of popups to want to see throughout the game, so experienced players can hide distractions explaining things they already know.

Improved Upgrade Info

When you're upgrading your players at the end of each stage, you can now see more helpful information about what each upgrade will do.
