Backer Alpha Patch #8 - Oblivion


Greetings Commander, 

Patch #8 is now available for download: Alpha v0.0.8

The Oblivion Cruiser has arrived. Dragged from the depths of subspace and warped beyond recognition, these monstrous vessels employ a variety of infernal tools to bring ruin upon their foes..

In other news, we have a major UI update for you today: rearrangeable crew portraits.

Note there are still a few issues present in the current implementation. We will get those fixed for the next patch. Despite the issues, we wanted to release it as soon as possible because the core functionality is complete. It gets the job done, and we thought you would appreciate having it a little earlier.
