This one was certainly slower than we had anticipated on releasing, but PAX East preparations have been really kicking us in the teeth the last few days. A lot of stuff had to get off to printers and so forth in time to actually make it to the show, and we left some of that…
This one has more balance and bugfix changes, and more responses to the “worst unit” polls. This time, the Mobile Repair Station gets some overdue love. Most substantially with this release, however, are some bug/balance fixes relating to the AI and how it gets reinforcements. Those were being held artificially low on certain difficulties, in…
This one is a hotfix for some issues in the prior version. Sigh. More to come soon. Enjoy! This is a standard update that you can download through the in-game updater itself, if you already have 0.500 or later. When you launch the game, you’ll see the notice of the update having been found if…
This one is a lot cheerier than our last release, in that it’s not fixing critical bugs. Minor ones, sure, but that’s a much better way to end the day as far as I’m concerned. It also changes around the balance on the supply depot meteor defense missions, and makes the world map way more…
This one has got to be about the least fun sort of release to be working on, for everyone involved (players and developers). There was still a memory leak in the prior version, and it was harming performance as well because of all the garbage collections it was causing. So all day today for Keith,…
This one is our third release of the day, which is never a good sign. Two releases can be good or bad: yay we had a batch of content and stuff leftover from prior days that we released mid-day, and then yay we did even more and released that at the end of the day;…
This one is the second release of today. There was a memory leak in chunk-gen in the prior version, and we wanted to get a fix out for that as soon as we could. Apologies that it took us a couple of hours to do so, actually — we had the fix done about an…
This one took us substantially longer than we thought it would, but that’s mainly because I wound up going down a rabbit hole of performance improvements. Which is great news! There’s a whole host of mainly-CPU-related performance improvements all through here, with everything from chunk-gen (particularly key in multiplayer) to actually when you’re running…
This one is the first of what we expect to be two releases for today. The main reason we’re pushing this one early is that it has such major CPU usage enhancements in it that we really wanted to get that into the hands of folks as soon as possible. But it also has a…
This one has yet another batch of bugfixes, but also four new/revised features: 1. Actual glass in windows, with periodic cracks and everything. 2. Healing Touch now not only works in multiplayer, it’s a lot more useful in how it works in multiplayer and solo. 3. Skelebot Guards are now Skelebot Grunts, and way less…
