Hello Executives,

As mentioned in the previous announcement you unfortunately wont be able to load saves from the previous version of the game, however so that you can finish off a saved game I have left the previous version up on a special branch for the time being called - oldversionforsaves.

After conducting a poll I have seen that people mostly want me to work on upgrading the first-person aspect of the game adding in features that you would expect in a modern day shooter rather than adding in all the new spy tech.

I would also like to congratulate one of our customers Glenn for winning the map competition on Discord who not only won $50 but also had his map added to the pre-set map list, well done, we will certainly be doing that again in the future.

Thanks again for all the help.

Cheers,
Rob
