What's Next After Steam Next Fest
Ashes of the Singularity II landed in the top 50 most played demos during Steam Next Fest, and the demo is still available through March 16.
In this video, I open up what we call a "zoo map" for the United Earth Forces faction, it's a development tool that lays out every unit and building for a faction in one place so we can review them all at a glance. I talk a bit about how we use these internally and what's still coming before launch, including the Substrate faction, a full campaign, and further gameplay adjustments.
A bunch of us on the dev team jumped into multiplayer matches during Next Fest to experience the game alongside you firsthand, and that feedback, yours and ours, is actively shaping what comes next. We're continuing to collect your input and make adjustments as development moves forward.
