The 14th of April 2023 was the day when this mod was released. It started as a basic mod that was based on my previous release: Techno-Strike Source. Now it's a huge mod that updates tons of assets and provides a polished and unique experience. This update introduces a new main menu song that is a remix of CS2's menu music, which shows that despite this mod being a mix of assets from CS:GO, CS2 and CSS, it also has some of its own unique elements. I also wanted the mod to have a modern main menu song. The CS:GO theme, while classic, is definetly old and in my opinion got pretty boring. This update also makes some massive changes to the UI: from a new logo on the main menu, to a completely redone HUD, scoreboard and spectator menu, this update fixes a number of issues that the old UI had and makes it look a lot better. There are still some issues which will be fixed in future updates, but for now this will have to do.
