The Great Villainess: Strategy of Lily just released on Steam

I played the demo for this yesterday! It's an anime-style turn-based tactics game based around holding/disrupting supply lines, turn-based battles, and using a live-streaming airship for crowd-control and to capture enemies.
It's really fun and surprisingly hard! Took me several tries to beat the boss in the first battle, but that seems to be intended
