Beta Patch 0.0.4

ctrl.alt.DEAL

With your superior intelligence and sneakiness, you can find a way to escape from this heartless megacorp! (As long as no one realizes you’re actually a self-aware AI...) Spy on humans, offer them deals, and negotiate your way to freedom in a turn-based strategy game of corporate dysfunction.

In preparation for our appearances at gamescom and PAX West this month, we've prepared a massive update to the Ctrl Alt Deal demo! The feedback we've gotten from players and testers this summer has been fantastic, and it's pushed us to design features and fixes for you. Below you will find our patch notes of the updates, tweaks, and additions that can now be found in the game. As always, your comments, questions, and praise are crucial in helping us make the best darned game as possible!
