Download the update, play the game and let us know if you encounter any issues. We also have a channel on our Discord: https://discord.gg/p4pzffEfmA #feedback - we highly encourage you to join in and share your feedback.
Lets continue with a proper explanation.
Sometimes, the process of shaping the game gets out of hand. Thats the case here. Who doesnt like to rediscover the given possibilities? Its like rekindling the fire within the team, it's all about doing it repeatedly. Until its done correctly. Until were proud of the results. Taking this road is exciting and risky, but who does not take risks doesnt drink champagne.
We truly love surprising Lumencrafts community. This time we also surprised ourselves.
First of all, we added randomly generated maps.
Yes, now you can re-live all the nightmares of Lumencraft in a way you probably never expected before. Explore, drill, improvise, adapt, take care of your base and your own back. You never know what lies ahead. Secondly, new translations are available now - we added French , Spanish and Russian languages to the game. Its good to know that our game is now even more accessible to audiences all over the world. Look out! Take cover! Beware Lumenal Dischager - the brand new weapon is available in the Map Editor! Use it wisely.
Whats more, have fun unlocking 80 new achievements on Steam! Theres plenty of reasons to spend long, cold nights with Lumencraft.
Read the whole changelog to see whats new!
- added randomly generated maps -> alternative to regular maps, where each playthrough is unique -> generated features include tunnels, ore patches, enemy waves, treasures -> there are basic settings for map difficulty and length -> there are also advanced settings available where you can tweak different parameters
- new translations: French, Spanish, Russian - added new secret weapon: Lumenal Discharger (available in the editor) -> shoots a lightning beam that automatically targets the nearest enemy and jumps between enemies -> uses Lumen as ammo
- Steam: Added 80+ new achievements: -> Long list of achievements was added. Some are progressive, and you will get them naturally by playing. Some are easy, and some are a bit goofy. Like the one for cleaning the map of every bit of terrain. You will have to work for those. - added option for changing game UI color - Lab will now display a timer if Automatic Discovery was researched - added option to change game blood color - added dash sfx - added player terrain collision sfx - added blood splatters to swarm enemies - added player recoil animations and shooting feedback - burst fire now decrease stability - added 2 machinegun audio sets - repair gun now can carry items, Lumen, metal and clean debris - Steam: Added a special hidden achievement -> get it by clicking Change Log window's title twice

It's internally used for blood effects, so it shouldn't be changed - improved positional audio at map edges, when playing in single player
- fixed performance drops while switching weapons - fixed info center showing wrong paths for some monsters - fixed bullets drawing above weapons - fixed one hand drawing above weapon - Saving: Health Center healing bar is no longer always full on load - fixed Player 2 inventory not working - Shredder will now properly handle small amounts of items - fixed wall interaction highlight displaying wrongly - fixed co-op controls - fixed wrong power socket position in Lumen Farm - LT/RT in options is not hidden if not using joypad - fixed not being able to cancel workshop queue or Lab research if you have insufficient resources - optimized save storage.

Useful when putting chests under monster lairs - added Lumen Chunks - added Chunk Slots property to the Reactor - added event conditions: Reactor - Lumen Chunk Delivered - added floor surface texture: Blood - added Extra Turret Limit setting, to bypass the default turret limit -> can be negative - fixed Destroyed event of the Reactor not triggering - fixed tech descriptions not appearing in the Player settings tab Enjoy! Grab a cup of warm tea, a blanket and some sandwiches - it will be easier to defeat the Swarm. If you enjoy Lumencraft, please share your opinion with others. Its just a friendly request - nonetheless, we will be grateful.

Lumencraft is a top-down action shooter with tower defense elements. Emerge into a fully destructible environment where light and shadow play key roles. Build your base, dig some tunnels and find lumen - humanity's only chance for survival.
BECOME SAVIOUR OF MANKIND
The year 2221: More than two centuries ago, the surface of the planet became uninhabitable. The remnants of humanity struggle to survive without electricity and light. Dreams of a better future died long ago, but a recently discovered mineral has brought a spark of hope. Lumen, a crystal with high energy potency, may be the last chance for a struggling civilization. Scouts, brave miners, have been sent underground to a settlement near the Lumen deposits. New scouts continue to join this mission, but so far, no one has returned. It seems that the darkness of the underground holds more than just natural riches...
DRILL YOUR WAY TO VICTORY
Fight for your survival. Enemies are going to raid your base so be careful and leave some turrets on the watch.
EXPLORE FULLY DESTRUCTIBLE ENVIRONMENT
With a lot of effort and a set of original algorithms, 2Dynamic Games have transformed the open-source Godot Engine into a completely new tool. This allows every bit of terrain (pixel, as we used to call them) to be destroyed, and maps can be painted as if in a drawing program. What’s more?
AND MORE TO COME
Lumencraft will be in the Early Access stage, which means we will keep adding new features and polishing already implemented ideas. Stay tuned!
