MicroProse Software has released Update 1.13 for Highfleet: Deus in Nobis. It introduces a new easy mode and large armor rebalancing changes, among many others.
Highfleet is a 2D action-strategy game that requires careful planning and resource management. You will commandeer thousand-ton ships to fight in Gerat, the game’s main world.
That said, while the game can be won purely by developing your own plan of action, some people say that it is just too hard. Fortunately, the folks at MicroProse have introduced the new easy mode so that you can still enjoy the game the way the devs have intended, albeit a lot easier than before.
Aside from that, the developers have introduced several armor rebalancing changes, which means that some armor upgrades before the update may be more viable now.
If you have been playing the game in fullscreen mode, Alt-tabbing will no longer minimize the game window.
