Been very busy lately fixing bugs on democracy. Found some quite bad ones such as memory leaks, and some issues with the text rendering. I use GDI for some text and I'm not used to checking my GDI handles, hence the flakiness of that code.
I also need to do some play balancing. America is too easy (it starts as a crime free utopia HAHAHAHAAH) and Italy is impossibly debt ridden from the start.
Lost of tweaks to do, lots of things to fix, but I'm not releasing it until I'm 100% happy. In retrospect I probably showed it to publishers a bit early, but you live and learn, and the game is getting more stable and better every day which is good.
