New to the game

Hi all,

Big fan of 4X games, and came across this game a few weeks ago, and can’t put it down. Fantastic game, and adaptation. One ask, any future plans to upgrade to the second edition? That would be sweet, happy to pay for it as well? Thanks

Nice adaptation!

Crashes a few times but doesn’t lose place in game. Please release an adaptation of Second Dawn! 🙏

Response from developer
