Release notes here. Relatively small release, and honestly the largest improvements are to the metal flows detail screen. But something about hacking, and in particularly spire archives, always makes me think of this scene from Star Trek TNG. “I just love scanning for life forms” pops into my head in daily life much more often than…
Release notes here. Lots of stuff in this one! Also, there’s a new interview with me and Rob chatting over at the eXplorminate’s podcast, if you’re interested. There’s a new option under the debug settings that lets you forcefully change the difficulty of the AIs if you want to, after having already started the game. Later…
Release notes here. Some players have noted that they’re able to deep-strike way into enemy territory with what feels like too little response from the AI. So… now the AI has a new AI Reserve force (in new campaigns only) that it can bring in to help defend its planets when it detects you deep-striking. A…
Release notes here. Duplicate Ship Lines In One Fleet The marquee feature in this build is that you have full freedom with your fleets now to combine the same ship type into multiple slots of a single fleet if you want. Aka, if you have three lines of snipers or bombers, you can just slap those…
Release notes here. There are actually several releases in one here, since we had a few small ones we just posted about on the forums rather than making a full announcement. But we’re back to where we’ll be doing an announcement for each release again. This particular build… does a whole heck of a lot, good…
Release notes here. This has been a very busy week! Personally I was doing semi-successful broadcasts of myself playing the game on Steam, and then the world’s longest AMA on reddit, and originally before that just looking into a ton of correspondence with players and press, answering questions, etc. Meanwhile, Badger and Puffin have been going…
Chris here! By any sane metric I can think of, AI War 2 shouldn’t exist. And yet it’s more than I ever imagined it could be. (Store links: Steam, Humble, GOG) When we first set out to make this game three years ago, it was far less ambitious. Even that was going to be really…
Release notes here. The actually go-live time isn’t until 11am EST tomorrow morning (the 22nd), but we’re going ahead and pushing out this version now to make sure that everything is A-OK in advance. We actually did a small build on Friday that introduced the hacking log, but it was a small one. Both of these…
Release notes here. Yesterday we actually did a small hotfix version that had a number of cool things in it, but they were small enough that I didn’t post about it here. So hence the version jump of two. What’s new between the two of these? There’s a really cool new “Helping Hands” quick start in…
Release notes here. After three long years, we’re finally at the point where we’re ready to start showing this off to the press in a non-preview fashion. This build does still have some bugs and some rough edges, but they’re minor in the main and we have a week to finish up that sort of thing…
