It's been a busy few days for me. I'm very happy to say that RC1 is out now! That means this could be a build I actually ship as Cloudbase Prime 1.0! I'll wait and see how it performs in the wild, and I'll continue slapping it with vigorous tests on my end. I'm pretty excited about this, though! Things that will still change are Steam Achievement icons and Steam Cards, because those are separate from the actual game software. Mac and Linux both support the Steam controller now, but there was a bit of a trade-off for that. Support for other controllers is still good on those platforms, but yeah, it's a little worse. I've also made some pretty nice Steam Controller mappings for the game. I'll probably make one of those the default "recommended" layout for Steam Controller users in the near future. As always, your feedback is welcome! ---- I've released a couple betas since 0.15.1 while ironing out those controller issues, so I've actually got a few versions worth of changes here. Full Change List Since July 11: Improved in RC1:

• Hex fighters can now drop fuel.
