Effera Route — First Phase (0.5.6)
Artificial Selection » Devlog
So sorry for the delay, but the update is finally out! This is a BIG one, adding 1-2 hours of fresh story content to the Beta! (The corresponding demo update is coming tomorrow, after the initial bug fixes are in.)
This month, I'm also launching a new membership tier! While Cooler Insiders get to play the most recent release, the newly added (regular) Insiders can play a version that's 1 month behind for just $5 a month! (On top of that, Insiders still benefit from the latest bug fixes; only the latest content is missing.)

But without further ado, here are the beloved patch notes you've been waiting for:
