Dear agents, heres update 0.16.3, featuring balancing, bug fixing and community requested changes (and a bit of eye candy too). Gameplay/Balancing In this update, we continued our effort to balance the Diplomacy, and make it less easier to acquire scientists. Our goal is to progrssively move the meta toward the exfiltration as the main solution to get scientists as it was originally intended. This will ramp up the overall difficulty of the game and make Strength based agents more useful. We will listen to your feedback and continue to tweak the diplomacy mechanics in future updates if needed. Graphics Each country now has a unique color flavors during exfiltrations to add variety. Weve also added new and shiny Soviet buildings that youll discover during your missions in Russia. Quality of life As widely requested, there is now an option to skip the dialogue animations entirely. For exotic resolutions, you can now resize the game window to fit your screen accordingly.

Full patchnote

Bugs

Fixed bug where the first captured agent could be killed by an event during the same turn, preventing the player from completing the counterespionage tutorial
Fixed bug where it was possible to drag the drone on an inactive (and invisible) conflict zone, resulting in unpredictable behaviors
Fixed bug where drones weren't given back to the player when they should
Authorization by hierarchy to use drones or not is only checked once a turn, preventing various bugs
Fixed bug where menus and tooltips weren't properly hidden in some resolutions, leading to a game blocked in the case of menus

STORY

From the creators of the award-winning sci-fi game Out There...

In the near future, a paradigm-shifting scientific discovery looms over the world, promising radical new technologies. The world’s superpowers realize they could have the power to destroy the global financial system, wipe out entire countries or even gain access to immortality.

However, this discovery — called “The Sigma Theory” — can only be harnessed by a handful of scientists. You are placed at the head of your country’s Sigma division. Your objective is to ensure that it is your nation that reaps the benefits of Sigma Theory before anyone else.

To achieve this you will have powerful resources at your disposal: a cadre of the world’s most elite covert agents, advanced tactical drones and, of course, your own skills in diplomacy and subterfuge.

It’s a cold war out there, one in which mankind must face up to its future.
