Progression overhaul + Controller update!
(Almost) all convoys and classes now have two different ways to unlock them. One linked to your choices at the end of the game and one linked to objectives you can complete during play, such as defeating an optional boss or uncovering the secrets of a location. I hope that this helps those of you that struggled with the somewhat esoteric unlock conditions that were in place so far. Let me know how it goes!
Stalker was a bit too weak compared to the other classes so a number of tweaks were done to improve his power a bit. One thing is that a First Strike theme was added to his starting deck and level up cards. First Strike plays well with Stealth and Marking, two of his other themes, so it felt really appropriate. Also some of the basic Marking cards (Mark Target & Volatile Mark) were improved. Mark Target now draws you a leader card when you play it. And Volatile Mark makes the target suffer Blackout before it is Marked.
A bit of new stuff has been added too! A brand new convoy centered around Stealth and the bandits. It should play well with the Stalker. However the downside of the Raiders is that they start out as Slavers and are unable to earn any Altruism during your playthrough.
In preparation for the upcoming console release I've added controller support to the game. You can now play it on your couch, leaning back. This brings some accessibility options with it, such as the ability to control the size of tooltip elements to make reading easier, even if you're leaned back. This also adds a more extensive hotkey suite to the game, so check that out if you want to speed up your play a bit. Please let me know if you experience any trouble with this!
There's a host of other, smaller tweaks, as always. Take a look at the changelog for a rundown:

Nowhere Prophet is a roguelike deck-building game set in a post-apocalyptic future.
Take on the role of a powerful leader and mystic. Empowered with the gifts of technopathy, the ability to sense and affect eletrical currents.
You are the last hope to a band of outcastes and refugees. Lead them across the randomly generated wastelands. Pick fights with greedy slavers and crazy machines using the turn-based card combat. But always spend your resources carefully. Can you survive long enough to reach the mysterious Crypt?
TRAVEL
During travel you navigate across a procedurally generated map. Make sure your convoy has enough resources to travel as you pick your route. On your journey you will encounter strange places and even stranger people. You will be thrust into situations that put the fate of your followers in your hands.
If you're lucky enough to gain some rewards, maybe for helping someone - or robbing them, then you can invest those to improve your decks. Recruit more followers to have more and different units to put into battle. Equip your prophet or level up and learn new skills to have access to stronger action cards in combat.
COMBAT
You will have to overcome some enemies to keep your convoy and resources together. And sometimes you may even want to pick a fight for righteousness or just for loot. Once in battle the game changes to the turn-based card game mode.
Play convoy cards to put your followers onto the field and position them so you can overcome your enemy. Or play action cards to dramatically change the battlefield. But be careful: If you're wounded you will have to find a safe place to heal. And if one of your followers takes too many wounds, they are lost forever.
In this world inspired by Indian culture you lead a convoy of outcastes. These desperate men and woman following your vision of a better future. Under your guidance they travel with you through the wastelands. Your goal is the Crypt, a mystical place that promises untainted technology and safety.
If you can survive long enough to find it.
