New menu clock SFX added
Custom Game settings added for Starting DNA
Custom Game Settings added for setting the cost of Shreader rounds
Fixed Shredder Rounds purchase just consuming money instead of DNA
Added a 'Playtime' indicator on save slot widgets
Updated the Weapon Range Indicator's visuals to indicate being blocked by 'shortening' the lit up part of the bar to match the block location
Added 'in-garrison' weapon range displays, for units that can shoot out of garrisons.If their 'angle lock' stops them from shooting (i.e. their seat won't let them turn that far), they will not show the range indicator
Weapon Range Indicators now have different colors if representing multiple weapons on a single unit
Weapon range indicators for multi-weapon unit setups now have slight offsets (to indicate the separate weapons and their ranges)
Crashfix added for multi-weapon unit setups for weapon range indicators
Updated the main water tile in the Calypso landscape to use the WaterBodyCollision and not be set to be 'step up on' enabled (hopefully stops units sometimes thinking that's valid land to 'land on' during safety checks?)

Made spacing more consistent on the recruit popup

Game is not tagged as available on Linux on Steam.

The Pangu Virus has been unleashed in San Francisco, turning thousands of innocent lives into mindless beasts that feel no pain and have no fear of death. With each passing hour, the Pangu Virus evolves, creating new and ever more horrific mutations with one goal in mind… Spread.

You are Captain Winter, a military officer fighting alongside the Center for Epidemic Research and Control(CERC). With a massive arsenal and the resources of the US Government behind it, you and CERC will stop at nothing to ensure the terror of the Pangu Virus does not escalate beyond containment, even if a whole city and millions of lives must be sacrificed.

Cepheus Protocol is inspired by classic RTS games such as Company of Heroes and World in Conflict, alongside the book World War Z.
Survive if you can against a relentless enemy that evolves and grows more powerful with each day.
Build specialized units from a variety of bases that can be placed anywhere in the open-world map.
Battle those infected by the Pangu Virus across four open-world islands, featuring unique and challenging environments.
Choose from three combat tiers that play to your style. Each tier has specialized units, equipment, and weaponry.
Engage a relentless horde of infected which numbers grow larger and stronger with each territory captured as you battle for control of San Francisco.
Hunt Patient Zero, who races across the city seizing territory. Each capture zone increases her population as the virus spreads and possesses all organic matter.
Form an alliance or side against the Anarchist and Police factions, which struggle to survive among the madness that has enveloped San Francisco.

Note: Steam Remote Play is for allowing your friends to try out the game if you already have purchased it. It's not for online co-op: that is is planned in the current roadmap, but is not complete yet
