Known issues

• Very rarely the game will disable your attack after minimizing the game or loading a new level. Pausing and unpausing should re-enable everything.
• One section can cause significant frame drops. If this affects your experience, you can reduce incoming damage for that section in the accessibility settings.
• If you're using a hybrid drive (SSHD), it is recommended you save the game files to your SSD for better performance.
• The fullscreen toggle doesn't work (on Windows you can press Alt+Enter to toggle fullscreen manually, and on Mac you can use Mission Control to force the game out of fullscreen)

About

This game was made as part of the spoiler season for Null Signal Games' latest set, Vantage Point, and contains spoilers for the set within! While it was made with the support of members of NSG, it is not an official product of the organisation or endorsed as such.

I get to preview cards because I made Sahasrara, the biggest Discord bot for Netrunner spaces.
