Hey there -- sorry to hear about that.  What OS are you on?  Are there any errors located in the RuntimeData folder in your install folder for the game?  You might try verifying the local files through Steam and see if that fixes it.  Thanks!

Hmmm, all looks okay in there -- there are literally no errors. What I'm guessing is that the sound is being piped to the wrong set of speakers, based on a few reports from a bit ago:

https://steamcommunity.com/discussions/forum/1/2217311444342760024/

It might also be that your specific program (unity, or AI War itself) is muted in windows: https://answers.unity.com/questions/219467/no-sound-at-all.html

To fix that in windows 10: https://mingersoft.com/blog/2011/01/adjust-and-mute-volume-for-individual-windows-applications/

Fortunately, in that link it also shows you how to change which audio device a program is being piped to. If you have a headset, or an aux port, then most likely unity games, or at least AI War for some reason, are being piped to that or muted.

Hope that helps!
