Planetary Annihilation the massive scale RTS has received its first patch for 2014 and it includes some pretty sweeping changes!

I played a game of this online recently in a 1on1 match and wow it has come a long way. I am still happy to say it's the single best RTS game out for Linux.

I've been playing the Early Access version for a month or so, having contributed on Kickstarter. So far, it looks and sounds great, and it's kicking my ass in solo play.
