This one is really just a maintenance release. There are a couple of balance tweaks that players requested, and we fixed a bug from the prior version that had busted tutorials. Enjoy! This is a standard update that you can download through the in-game updater itself, if you already have 4.000 or later. When you…
This one is one that I think players will find very exciting. It’s not as massive as the prior one, but it does include a number of key fixes and two major new features that have been asked-for. The first is… a new mission type! At long last. This one is a “battlefield” sort of…
This one is filled with some really cool stuff that I had no hand in. Keith has been really adding in some neat new features with this one, as well as a lot of housekeeping stuff. First off, there’s a lot of balance stuff in here. AI superforts won’t be so annoying to deal with…
This one is… massive. Actually, that’s a bit of an understatement. I’m not sure that this is our largest single beta release ever for any of our games, but it’s certainly our largest one that was done in just a week. Consequently, even trying to summarize what all has changed is really difficult — so…
This one contains two new enemies: Will O’ The Wisps, and Crashed Land Speeder Robots. One very fantasy, one very sci-fi. The swamp, the junkyards, and the thawing ice age areas definitely feel a lot more rounded-out now, although of course there’s still more enemies we want to add with time. This version also completely…
Been working on a variety of things today, but among them was a third piece of concept art. I feel like this one emphasizes the sci-fi side of things more than the second one, but I’m not sure I actually like this one better than the second one; the composition and the colors aren’t quite…
This one comes only two days after the last release, which suddenly seems fast. What happened to our daily release schedule!? Well, mainly it’s that we’re working on slightly larger features that take more than a day to implement each time. Or in the case of this specific release, a lot of medium features. There…
I’ve been working on doing some new concept art today so that we’d have a better boxart image than the old one, which has been feeling embarrassingly lame lately. Here are the first two that I’ve created, and I plan to do at least one more in the next week. The second one at the…
This one comes very near to finishing the GUI rework, which has been my main focus for about a week. There’s essentially a little bit of cleanup left to do, and then one last control (the “grid view”), which is only used on a single screen (the commodities inventory). I think that you’ll find the…
This one is continues the menu/HUD/text work from yesterday’s release in a fairly visible fashion, and it continues the multi-part monster work in a less-so fashion. Multi-part monsters are working quite well, but now we’re doing all sorts of fun other things like making it so that you can shoot a gun on the machine…
