We're looking for an experienced Unity particle artist to make some cool projectile / explosion / fire effects for Xenonauts-2. If you're interested, please send a few work examples to [email protected] - and if other devs have any recommendations, please let me know!

@Inclined2Chaos Potentially after Xenonauts 2 is done, yeah - we've designed the codebase to be reusable, we just have to decide what type of TBS game to make next :)

@RKade8583 We are planning to add text / UI scaling, so hopefully it'll do what you need to let you play X2 - but unfortunately I can't 100% promise it!

@RKade8583 I seriously doubt we're high-profile enough to warrant Epic offering to throw money at us, so don't worry about that. Re: text scaling I can't easily say because our UI could probably support some kind of text scaling (but not unlimited) and I'm not sure how big is big enough

@tobelplays That was the date we were targeting for the Early Access launch but unfortunately we're going to push it back a bit, sorry!

@Aavak_ Yeah, I've had emails from a number of people about it. Drop me a line at chris(at)xenonauts.com and I'll send you a brief statement reaffirming we own the copyright and you're allowed to use the music.

@SArmadilloTank One method of autosaves was causing problems so we disabled it - are you not getting any at all now?

@SArmadilloTank They're not turned off - ground combat saving hasn't been implemented yet. It'll be added in the next few months.
