Door Kickers Real Time Tactics Alpha 7 Released

By -
Door Kickers is an innovative Real-Time Tactics game that puts you in charge of a SWAT team. 

It's a pretty decent game even for an alpha version, I recommend it that's for sure.

QuoteFeatures:

Fixes:
- Moved game files on Linux from ~home/DoorKickers to ~home/.local/share/DoorKicker
- Game should run smoother on older hardware
- Fixed a crash from 0.0.60
- Fixed accuracy being incorrectly calculated for shotguns
- Fixed a bug where troopers’ names were not visible


You can grab it DRM free from them directly which includes a Steam key (so no reason not to buy from them directly!).

I actually did some early testing for them and they seem like pretty decent guys as well!
