Today we released version 0.23 of the High Frontier video game!

This one took a while, as we had to build a lot of new infrastructure, including map overlays for showing things like crime rate and fire hazard; event pointers that always point in the shortest direction of an occurrence; and animated police cruisers that fly by actually pivoting the four rotors as needed to pilot each craft!

But it's worth it, because the result is a game that's noticeably more fun to play.  Now, when in city mode, you don't just lay some paths and zones and watch your city grow.  You are instead an active participant, dispatching emergency services where needed and clearing out burned-out buildings so new ones can rise in their place.

Please give it a try, and let us know how it goes!  Version 0.24 is going to be focusing on playability — tweaking the balance, improving cosmetics and controls, and adding help where people tend to get confused.  So, if you have any suggestions, we'd sure love to hear them!
You do know that the installer still claims to be version 0.18 ;-)

Hah! No, I'm afraid we didn't notice that. Good catch! We'll get it fixed for the next release.

Meanwhile, if you want to be sure of what you have installed, you can see the version number in the lower-left corner of the main menu.

Thanks for pointing this out!
