Alpha 6 is out – shadows and skirmish!

I’m happy to announce that Alpha 6 is out!

Alpha 6 features improvements both in graphics and gameplay. Along with usual expansion of graphics content, the game has got quality improvement – dynamic shadows. Gameplay got improved with introduction of skirmish mode.

Skirmish setup

A few words about skirmish – this is single-player mode against AI, much alike multiplayer games where everyone starts in the same conditions. Everyone’s goal is to defeat enemies.
