Hey everyone! it has been quite a while over two years already! While Beat Invaders is a finished project for me, and I continue to work on my new game, Engraving, it is still a project that I love dearly. There were a couple of bugs that bugged me (pun intended) and some things that just broke down with services that I used that were taken offline (Dailies/Weeklies). Originally, I planned to fix those bugs and release a minor patch. But then I had way too much fun! So, this months development time was poured completely into Beat Invaders. If you find new bugs, I would love to hear about them via the in-game Feedback tool or on the Beat Invaders Discord server. I really hope you will enjoy playing the new version of Beat Invaders as much as I did making it!

Beat Invaders 3.0 - Patch Notes

Highlights

• Season 3 started: Leaderboards are fresh and clean - I will post the top scores of the last season in the upcoming days.
• Hyper Lone Wolf game-mode was added: This was requested a couple of times by the community.
  
• Added slight Vertical Movement: General gameplay change - Delivery HQ installed the Convoy Control Protocol into every Ship. This will allow the Ship to gain a bit of vertical movement, which Convoy Freighters will react to. Talented pilots can use this to employ new defensive or offensive tactics.
  
• Route Effect System: Whenever you jump to a new System, you can alter your run by adding Route Effects. These stackable, optional effects will make the game a bit more challenging while offering bigger rewards!
  
• Steam Community Items: Trading Cards, Badges, Backgrounds, and more!
  
• German language: I finished my work on the translation integration and added German as a second language. If you want to play Beat Invaders in your language, reach out on the Discord and help me with the translation!
• Missions menu: In this new menu, you get an overview of your Achievements - and maybe a good idea of what to do on your next run!
• 7 new Achievements!
• Three new Meta Upgrades: You can now equip up to three Hacks, repair your Freighters, and store up to three Specials - very common community requests.
• 5 new in-game Ship Upgrades!

Improvements

• Improved appearance of Upgrade Icons. Added Rarity labels and made Rare upgrades easier to recognize.
• Damage Numbers: With more damage influence from different Route Effects, this helps to get more information about the damage you deal! You can enable it via the options.
• Added Attract mode: This starts the game automatically in demo mode after idling in the main menu; you can enable it via the options.
• Added a Shield display over the health UI when your ship is protected by the Shield provided by Defensive Refactoring.
• Added a template to the Feedback Reporting tools bug section.
• Added Option for low Screenshake; previously, you could only enable or disable it.
• Added Option to confine mouse to the game window.
• Improved Hack Selection screen: Selected Hacks are now easier to recognize, and the layout was rearranged for consistency between screens.
• Improved Options Menu: Restructured to make it easier to navigate and look less cluttered.
• Reworked Dash charge UI element to make it easier to read.
• Clicking/Selecting a profile in the profile selection screen now directly changes to this profile.
• Added Icons to profiles to make it easier to recognize which is active.

Balance

• Increased enemy life with increasing wave count.
• Boss: The Hammer now shoots additional projectiles.
• Meta Upgrade cost becomes more expensive with increasing levels of the upgrade.
• Increased the maximum amount of Dash charges that you can get via in-game Upgrades (3 > 4).
• Added level up options to Evasive Attack (launch 1 additional missile per level, up to 4 in total).
• Immensely buffed damage of Ultrashield shards (400% + bonus based on absorption + wave count bonus).

Bugfixes

• Fixed double inputs with external controller on Steam Deck.
• Fixed broken Daily and Weekly leaderboards, making the achievements available again!
• Fixed bug where additional Upgrade Levels were awarded after loading a game with the Cutting Edge upgrade equipped.
• Fixed typo in Repair Bot description.
• Fixed a bug where "Meta Upgrades" button glow did not update after changing profiles.
• Fixed a bug where "Meta Upgrades" were not sorted correctly.
• Fixed letters in the Upgrade screen appearing in incorrect colors.

It was quite some time since the last patch! I just read in the community forums that dailies/weeklies were broken. This was because I used an external service/api to supply that information to the game. I updated the game to work with a different service now - So dailies and weeklies are now available again! Another small bug that was reported in the community forums was that the screenshake setting is not saved properly - this should now work as intented! There are still known bugs about certain controllers and double inputs. This is unfortunately an engine issue and will be fixed in the next release of it. I will update the game and release another patch as soon as this happens. Hope you enjoy the game! Raffaele

Hey everyone!
I will be showing Beat Invaders on the Game Developer Conference 2023 as a part of the Godot showbooth. I would love to see you there to chat! As part of the preparations for the show, I also implemented a feature that was suggested on the Steam forums, a "Attract Mode". Attract Mode starts after idling in the main menu for about 10 seconds (just the main menu, not upgrade screen or ship select etc.) and is of course an option that you can enable or disable in the game settings. I also added a couple smaller, gameplay/visual updates! The next patch will be coming after the GDC - so in about 2 weeks. By the way:

The game is on 35% discount at the moment, so grab it while the plasma is still hot!

[ 2023-03-17 08:50:57 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hey everyone! Patch 2.2.33 was just set live! Thanks to feedback on the Discord and a new way of testing, I found two more bugs in the game that decreased performance on longer runs.

[ 2022-12-05 10:27:21 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hey everyone! Patch 2.2.32 was just set live! Thanks to feedback on the Discord, I was made aware of some bugs that I fixed right away .

Patch Notes

• Meteoroids did not get cleaned up properly when leaving the play area, this resulted in auto-acing the Meteoroid event and other issues.
• Spreadshot: Spread upgrade did not display the correctly calculated damage.
• There was a performance problem with the Spreadshot ship class that was leading to decreasing performance on longer runs.

[ 2022-12-03 20:04:25 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hey everyone! 2.2.31 was just deployed. It has only minor changes.

Patch Notes

• Meteoroids in higher event waves have received a boost to their health.
• Meteoroids have a damage modifier depending on where on the play field they are.
• Meteoroids no longer damage each other when they overlap.
• Smaller changes to the effects when hitting Meteoroids.

[ 2022-12-03 12:11:15 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hey everyone! I just uploaded a new patch! 2.2.3 is mostly a bug fixing and balancing patch, but it also has some new things for you! Thanks again to Hugo from the community for a lot of feedback for this patch and the rest of the community for reporting bugs and problems.

Patch Notes

Balancing was reworked

• All ship classes have adjusted damage output values and should now be competetive! I'm still looking for feedback to adjust balancing in the future, shall there be the need for it.
• Adjusted Hyperbeam damage to wave be useful in higher waves.
• Adjusted Hunterswarm missiles to be useful in all wave counts and have high enough damage to cause chain reactions again.
• Meteoroid health was adjusted to match the new damage output.

Changes

• Coins now come at different colors representing different values. (Gold = 1, Green = 3, Purple = 10)
• Pods: Double Up now changes the appearance of your pods.
• Added a "boost" effect before starting a new wave.
• Added different sound effects for each ship class on the ship select screen.
• Added a new button for "Details" in the Upgrade Screen, now it will be finally usable on a gamepad.
• Changed how a lot of stats are displayed in the detail view (e.g. Ship Speed is now also an absolute value, not just a percentage change)
• Reworked how the Magnet powerup works, it now has a much stronger pull on tokens, but it also can "lose" grip on tokens if they leave the magnet area.
• Railgun Ship class has received an impact effect on Meteroids, making it finally possible to move Meteroids with the Railgun Ship.
• Pulse Blaster: Charge Boost is now Epic rarity
• Spreadshot Ship Class: Main weapon now acts much more like a shotgun and has a increased bullet count by default.
• Certain Graphic Options that had no effect on the Steam Deck are now not displayed anymore when playing on the Steam Deck.

Fixed Bugs

• Destroyed Freighters are now not displayed anymore after continuing a run.
• Run savegames do now properly get deleted on the Steam Deck.
• Some of the new achievements weren't properly awarded, now they work!
• And a LOT more bugs...

I hope you have fun with the new Patch!

[ 2022-12-02 14:13:17 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hey everyone! another patch is live and with this patch, there is finally a Demo waiting for you if you haven't yet played Beat Invaders! Another new "feature" is a new trailer - I finally took the opportunity to use some of the footage I collected during the recent patch development to refresh the old trailer. It didn't really do the game no justice anymore. So check it out and let me know what you think in the comments. Let's jump right into the changes!

New Features

Skip Track list

WIth this feature you can add up to four tracks to a list of songs that won't be played anymore from that point on. You can edit the list in the options menu.

New Special: Auto Tracker

Activating this Special will give your projectiles homing capabilities for a moment.

New Upgrade: Pods - Double Up

Adds a projectile to your pods - that means each round will fire one more shot - Missiles and the Attack Pods. This can be leveled to level four which gives your Pods a lot more power making Pod centered builds more interesting and viable.

New Achievements!

13 new Achievements are waiting to be unlocked!

Detailed Upgrade Menu Stats

This was requested more times than I can count: The ability to show in detail what an upgrade does for you. Now you can press the detail button and get all the information about what you will get from an upgrade!

Outline Effect

Fans of a more Comic like look can try the new Outline Effect by activating it in the Options menu.

Tutorials

I added a series of small tutorials that will explain the basic gameplay mechanics of Beat Invaders. Some mechanics were always very obvious while others, e.g. Enemy Shield Link weren't. I hope this will help new players learn the game quicker!

Changes

Attack Pods manual fire

Attack Pods are back to manual fire mode - At some point in the past I changed it to auto-fire. But it felt a lot less powerful to press the shoot button. Not that all charge-up times (Railgun and Pulse Blaster) have been reduced, it's more fun to shoot it manually.

Automatic Settings on the Steam Deck

For Players that did not have played the game so far on the Steam Deck, it will select good settings on the first start up automatically.

Special Info in Upgrade Menu

The effects of a Special were not explained anywhere. Now you will get a small box during the Upgrade Screen when you have a Special in your Special Slot, explaining what the Special will do for you on activation!

Repair Special repairs Convoy

In the past, the Repair Special only repaired your ship, with an amount that could be improved from the "Special Power" upgrade. The Repair Special will now also repair your convoy ships, making it more valuable.

Performance improvements!

The game should, in general, have a noticeable better performance on most systems (including the Steam Deck).

Rebalancing

I had the feeling that the higher waves were a bit too easy, oftentimes the screen was cleared before the action could even start. This was adjusted and to make up for it, point rewards for some enemies were increased.

Smaller Changes

Token pickup has a new sound, Tokens got a new look, the Player ships got a visual upgrade, You will now have a level up indicator on the ship... and a lot more!

Bugfixes

And of course, this new patch also has a lot of bugfixes, especially for some bugs related to continuing saved runs.

[ 2022-11-22 22:14:11 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hey everyone! Thanks to Hugo from the Beat Invaders community I was informed about a bug that needed hotfixing. While I was at it, I also took another look into performance issues and optimized performance some more. Because the Spreadshot class had some massive performance issues on very high upgrade levels there was also changes to that ship class. Changes in 2.2.1

• Spreadshot Upgrade: Shot Amount is now capped at lvl. 30
• When Shot Amount is capped, a new Upgrade is unlocked: Spreadshot Damage. This will directly increase the damage of each projectile.
• The time it takes to ramp up Spreadshot: Focus Fire was increased, the time it takes to reset the effect was decreased.
• Spreadshot: Focus Fire now has a visual effect on the projectiles.
• Performance increases.
• Fixed a bug where area damage decreased performance over time.
• Fixed a bug in the Spreadshot Class where sometimes performance would decrease over time.

[ 2022-11-02 20:34:36 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hey everyone! With this patch some new features made it into the game.
I knew for quite a while that some runs can really take some time. And there is nothing worse then having to cancel a run just because of running out of time to play.

In-run saving

Now it is possible to leave a run and continue it later from the last successful wave.

Profiles (Save Slots)

Another feature that is especially helpful when multiple people play on one machine are the Profiles (Save Slots). You can now select from three Profiles that will track progress individually.

Tutorials

I also know that some game mechanics were never really explained very well - for example the Enemy Links. To help with that I added a series of small in-game tutorials, highlighting and explaining the different core mechanics. If you are a Veteran, you can of course disable the tutorials in the game options.

Performance Boost

The games performance was improved. This will be especially noticable on the Steam Deck and in scenes with a lot of enemies. This should also help a bit with the battery drain on the Steam Deck

Railgun Class rework

Before this patch, the Railgun class felt a bit on the weak side. Especially the game design around the Attack Boost was a bit weird. Fire Rate was an upgrade that really only helped for Attack Boost while Charge Level did not help a lot there. This left players at a decision on upgrades that always felt a bit meh.
The rework did the following:

• When having an Attack Boost, the charge rate is doubled and the shots are automatically released when fully charged.
• Fire Rate was removed from the Upgrade Pool.
• A new Upgrade was added to the Pool: Discharge (The first hit of the railgun explodes, dealing 30% of the charged damage. - Upgrades increase the explosion size.)
• This Upgrade will also help with horizontal clear speed.

Smaller Changes

• Hyperbeam can now be chained (using a Hyperbeam while a Hyperbeam is active will restart it.)
• Spreadshot Class: Spread Upgrade now also increases Damage.
• A bug was fixed where sometimes it was not possible to use a Repair Bot even though it should have been.
• Smaller bug fixes.

[ 2022-11-01 18:16:35 CET ] [ Original post ]

I just deployed another quick patch, it fixes a visual bug that was introduced with the last patch. It also rebalances two things that I was looking into for quite a while. Bugfixes

• Turrets on the destroyer had no Texture and were displayed as white.

Balance changes

• All ships received a slight increase in their base speed.
• Enemy projectiles were slightly slowed down.
• Destroyer turrets now reward an Upgrade Token on destruction (Shield Tower reward three Tokens)
• Destroyer turrets now take longer to reload on normal difficulty

I hope these changes make the game more enjoyable!

[ 2022-10-02 09:08:16 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hey everyone, after seeing some new players play the game live, I noticed that the color of the Upgrade Tokens in game can be very misleading. I changed it to a blue color now and added an additional trail to make it look more like some "energy ball" that you can collect. I hope this change will help new players to not run away from Upgrade Tokens. Also, the upgrade menu between waves was slightly adjusted, pressing two times in the same direction to select an upgrade is no longer an option as it often lead to players choosing an upgrade without reading or even wanting to select the upgrade. Now it is mandatory to press the accept button to select an upgrade - A button prompt was added to the screen. The Upgrade screen was also increased in size to allow for a bigger font size - it was especially small on the Steam Deck. Apart from those changes, a bug was fixed on the Railgun Ship class when the main gun was charging while an Attack Boost was activated. I hope you enjoy the new changes and it's not too confusing for Veteran players! Good luck in your runs! Raffaele

[ 2022-10-01 15:54:13 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hey everyone, thanks to everyone that used the feedback feature of the game to send in suggestions and bug reports. It weren't many, but I finally found time to tackle them! Here are the most recent changes:

• Rebalanced the Railgun Class, the charge time is now much more consistent and shorter in higher Charge upgrade levels.
• Increased the width of the Railgun projectile.
• Made the Railgun feel more powerful (sounds and visual effects).
• Fixed a bug when the Convoy was not going to cover behind the player when activating an Attack Boost right after another Attack Boost ran out.
• Slightly reduced the overall glow effect of the game.
• Ship Meta Upgrade cost was overall reduced, some perks were slightly increased in cost - this will reduce the "grind".
• Fixed a translation file error in the Controls menu (rebinding controls popup).

[ 2022-09-24 14:23:32 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hey everyone, first of all - sorry for the last days. There were two patches, especially 2.1.4 that were far from perfect and introduced some new bugs. But thanks to user using the new "Feedback" feature, I was able to quickly identify the bugs and patch them. One issue is fixed in this patch: The Drone groups were not "bouncing" off the screen edge anymore. One change is also done to the balancing: Drone groups will now also spawn on easy difficulty. I will try my best to improve the patch quality in the future!

[ 2022-08-05 12:01:53 CET ] [ Original post ]

This is a hotfix for a bug that was introduced with yesterdays 2.1.4 patch. The bug caused a crash-to-desktop for a lot of users. I hope you can now enjoy the game again!

[ 2022-08-04 06:59:58 CET ] [ Original post ]

After a couple of smaller hotfix patches, here is a patch that introduces a new features and fixes two problems that were reported.

• Game now has a "Feebback" button in the menu - you can send feedback and/or bug reports using this tool!
• Fixed bug: Mouse Position sometimes having an offset after changing resolution/fullscreen settings.
• Fixed bug: Sometimes a wave is not finished because an enemy is stuck off-screen.

Thank you for playing!

[ 2022-08-03 19:20:48 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hello Everyone! it has been quite a while since the last patch - I am very sorry about that. This game is a solo developer hobby project of myself and my life has been a bit full lately. Thank you for your support and patience - This patch fixes a lot of bugs, most importantly for the highscore hunters out there: It's now possible to score higher than 2.1 billion. This also meant a migration of the leaderboards. You will probably not notice the change right away as the old scores have been migrated to the new leaderboards, but it could be that a couple of old scores are missing or that some new scores that happened between updating your game to 2.1.0 and the old version are not in the updated game. Sorry about that, but it was a breaking change and I tried to manage it in the best possible way. There are also a couple of new features and a looooot of balance changes! I hope you enjoy the update and have a lot of fun!

Patch Notes 2.1.0

Features and Improvements

• Ship Classes are now Pilots and have received artworks for each.
• New Game Mode: Speedrun Mode (Run ends after wave 40, time is measured)
• New in-game Event: Enemy Destroyer
• Weekly and Daily were changed to Normal Mode (was Hyper) to make it interesting for more players.
• Weekly Mode can now be replayed.
• 6 new Achievements.
• When rolling new Upgrades, there is now a chance to get Lucky Rolls. This will have rare and epic Upgrades. After a boss battle, there is an increased chance for such a roll.
• The delay between dashes has been reduced and the invulnerability time increased - that makes it possible to "chain" dashes to get a longer invulnerability window.
• Players Missile visual size is now dependant of the damage.
• Leaderboard Points are now rounded to the hundreds, that allows much bigger High-Scores. The old values in the Leaderboard were adjusted accordingly.
• Railgun Class: Reworked shooting visual effects.

Balancing

• Attack Boost length decreased from +2s to +1s per level of "Special Power"
• Spreadshot Class: The ships speed was increased slightly.
• Spreadshot Class: Focus Fire upgrade now increases rate of fire instead of decreasing it.
• Railgun Class: Changed Mechanics.
• Railgun Class: Width Upgrade has an improved visual effect and overall increased effect.
• Railgun Class: has a slightly reduced damage bonus against meteoroids.
• Railgun Class: has now a much more fixed overall charge speed to maximum charge only increasing a little bit per charge level.
• Railgun Class: Fire Rate also influences the Time needed for the first charge to load.
• Railgun Class: Charge Speed influences this overall time needed to fully charge, not the time between single charges.
• Railgun Class: The influence of the maximum Charge Level on the rapid fire mode in Attack Boost has been reduced and capped.
• Pulse Blaster Class: Reworked the charge speed of the main weapon (charges faster overall, get's a charge bonus after each 15 levels of Charge)
• Pulse Blaster Class: Amount of Additional Projectiles from Attack Boost is now limited.
• Pulse Blaster Class: The speed reducement from Fire Rate is now applied permanent and not only when firing.
• Pulse Blaster Class: More obvious effect when full charge is reached. This results in a quicker charge up time on higher charge levels and a lower charge speed on lower levels - making the mechanic easier to understand.
• Pod Damage is now increased from the "Pod Salvo" Upgrade (instead of decreased). This should make upgrading the pods much more viable.
• Enemy Transports and Meteors will now spawn together less frequently.
• Enemy Drones will now not appear if there are very few enemies left.
• Enemy Tanks do now shoot with a pre-set delay per row - making the patterns easier to avoid.
• The damage of the Hyperbeam was increased per level of "Special Power".
• Enemy Mine Carriers do now drop a Token and an extra Token if the Mine is destroyed while still attached.

Bugfixes

• Fixed a bug where sometimes upgrades were re-rolled multiple times when receiving level ups during the upgrade screen is open (most noticeable when the rare sound appears but no rare upgrade is visible)
• Enemy Repair Shield Ship: Fixed a lot of bugs. Now works as intented.
• Fixed a bug with "The Hammer" moving out of the play area.
• The mines in wave 21 were reduced.
• Health of Enemy Cargo Transport was increased in higher wave levels.
• Health of Enemy Cargo Transport Boxes was increased in higher wave levels.
• Damage of Enemy Shooter was increased by 1 per 2 loops (loop 1+2: 1dmg, loop 3+4: 2dmg, etc.).
• Damage of Enemy Artillery was increased by 1 per 2 loops.
• Fixed a bug where multiple Hunterswarm Missiles would hit the same target altough it is already killed.
• Fixed a bug where multiple projectiles were consumed when an enemy was overdamaged.

[ 2022-07-13 18:28:09 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hey everyone! Todays patch has mostly bug fixes and a slight difficulty adjustment. One thing that happened in this patch and is still "invisible" are preparations for localization. The first language that will soon be added is German, my native language.

I am looking for people in the community to help with translating the game into their language. If you want to help, contact me on the Discord server!

Changes

• The difficulty of Normal and Lone Wolf mode was adjusted - it is a bit easier on the beginning of a run.
• The increase of the Mine damage was lowered by half. (Was +1 per loop, is now +1 per 2 loops).
• When the game will lose focus (e.g. by Alt-Tabbing out), it will automatically pause during while playing.

Fixes

• The Leaderboards can now display names in non-latin characters.
• The Repair Ship area of effect had a bug in it's visuals.
• The "Bandit's Lucky Coin" was displayed as "Defensive Refactoring" in the Leaderboards. It's now corrected, old registered scores will still display this incorrectly.
• When the last played difficulty was "Lone Wolf", this was not loaded correctly when starting the game.

[ 2022-05-07 12:38:43 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hey everyone, sometimes, reality shifts away from a plan. And while you can just accept this and continue, in my case I want to react to these changes. A price increase on an already released game is rather unconventional - Beat Invaders is not an Early Access game where it is much more common to increase the price of the product with added content. And that Beat Invaders is not an Early Access title was, in hindsight, a mistake from my side. I noticed I didn't want to leave the game in the state it was originally released. It wasn't super buggy or boring, but it just felt incomplete to me. So - a lot of the problems have been tackled in 2.0 and I am sure I will continue to add new content to the game as the community and player base grows. But I am at the point where the price of the game does just not represent what a buyer is getting and this puts the game in a bad spot. I have been contacted over and over with opinions that the game is way too cheap. That it can also be received as a low-end product because of the low-end price. As a result of really thinking a lot about it and also talking about the topic with friends - the price of Beat Invaders will be increased. As a player that already bought the game, nothing will change for you - of course!

The price that Beat Invaders is available right now won't be that low in the close future. I just felt it would be fair to write this news before increasing the price to give everyone interested a fair chance to grab it at the current price.

Between mid and end of May, the price for Beat Invaders will be raised - my plan, for now, is $9.99 (7.99 / 6.99)

Thank you very much for your time and support!

[ 2022-05-06 10:05:02 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hey everyone!

• Slightly increased Spread of Pulse Blaster's Charged volley.

Fixes:

[ 2022-05-06 02:03:23 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hey everyone! There is one request that is brought up over and over: "Friendly fire is annoying" "The game would be better without the freighters" "It's impossible to protect the convoy" I want to give everyone a chance to enjoy the game, so I added a new Game Mode.

Lone Wolf - Game Mode

From version 2.0.4 on you can select "Lone Wolf" game mode and play the game without the Convoy Freighters in Normal Mode difficulty. This new mode also has it's own Leaderboard, so show your friends and the world who is the greatest at surviving without any protection from the freighters! Apart from this change, 2.0.4 mostly has bug fixes and minor adjustments for the Steam Deck.

Debug branch

I got several reports of game crashes after the 2.0 update. Some of them are really hard to find. So if you notice game crashes, it would be great if you can switch to the "debug" branch in Steam if you are willing to help. You will find logfiles of the game in the folder: C:\Users\your_user_name\AppData\Roaming\Raffa\BeatInvaders\logs It would be great if you can paste those into the "debug-feedback" channel on the Discord Server!

Patch Notes - 2.0.4

• Optimizations for the Steam Deck (Camera Angle and Position, System Hack selection)
• Change: The Ultrashield Special now charges up with each enemy hit. This increases it's size. After running out, a charged up Ultrashield will release a volley of projectiles.
• Fixed a bug that caused a crash to desktop.
• Fixed a bug where "The Hammer" boss was moving out of the screen.
• Fixed a bug in the Railguns "Overcharge" Upgrade - it now works correctly!

[ 2022-05-04 13:24:20 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hey everyone! It was reported that the new 2.0 was crashing on startup on Windows 11. This hotfix solves this problem! Another change that was really important but needs your attention: Cross Platform cloud saves should work now, so switching between your Steam Deck and PC should work. (You have to shut down the game on a platform to have the progress on the other!)

If you have been playing on Windows and the Steam Deck before, please be aware that you now have to choose which Cloud save you want to continue!

Again, thanks to the great community on Discord for the reports and feedback!

Patch Notes - 2.0.2

- Fixed a bug that crashed the game when starting on Windows 11. - Enabled cross-platform cloud saves. (Please make sure you select the correct Cloud file when being prompted for the first time if you have been playing on the Steam Deck and PC) - Capped Upgrades are not showing up in the Upgrade Pool (Fire Rate e.g.). - Increased the difficulty on Minefield events. - Increased the area where Hunterswarm Missiles are removed. - Fixed some visual glitches and problems. - Fixed a bug where too many Projectiles caused a crash. - Fixed a bug where the game could be started before the System Hack screen. - Fixed a bug where the camera glitched a bit after a warp jump. - Increased the character limit on the local Leaderboard.

[ 2022-05-03 17:28:55 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hey everyone! After a very intense and long playtest beta it's finally here: 2.0! Originally I planned on calling this version 1.x, but the changes are so big and enormous that it is a new big version.
If you are interested why these big changes were neccessary, you can read this post that goes into the problems of 1.x in more detail.

At this point I want to say a BIG, BIG thank you to the Beat Invaders community on the Discord server. There were a lot of beta versions and a lot of the changes for 2.0 are based on community feedback!

I don't want to waste any more of your time, so let's jump right into the Details. There are not all fixes and minor changes listed here, that would make this post completely explode. It is best to just play the game and see what changed!

Added Features

• 11 new music tracks by "Approaching Nirvana"!
• Beat Invaders is now officially verified for the Steam Deck!
• One game loop (wave 1-40) is now devided into four Sectors - each with unique color, atmosphere and environment.
• There are now Daily and Weekly challenges with their own respective Leaderboards.

Hey everyone! Today I want to share some of the new features and changes that will come to the 2.0 update that will come to Beat Invaders soon.

One important thing before we get to the meat and potatoes.

There will be a beta test and if you are interested in taking part it would be best to join the Discord Server! Follow the link in the game or just click here.

Challenges before 2.0

Talking to a lot of you I found out some problems with the state that Beat Invaders is at the moment: [olist]

Runs are too similar to each other.

There is no feeling of progressing through a world.

The game is too easy. [/olist] Of course there are also some bugs, balance issues and general feature wishes - I will talk about those in the last section of this post.

Runs are too similar

This seems like one of the main problems - and I totally agree. Beat Invaders was not planned as a big game where you could sink hundreds of hours - that is also reflected in the price. But I still think runs should feel individual and offer suprises. But what makes a run different from another? In my opinion it comes down to two things: Opportunities and importance of decisions.

Ingame Upgrades

At the current version, upgrades are purchased during a run by paying for them with collected tokens. After each wave you are offered three random upgrades. Each upgrade has a base cost of 3 Tokens and the price is increased by each purchased level per upgrade. This results in less decision making because a good player earns so many tokens that, most of the time, all three upgrade choices can be purchased. Also cheap upgrades can just be picked up due to the low price at a later point when the player earns much more Tokens in a run than in the beginning. This design will be overhauled in 2.0. In 2.0 each Token that is picked up will act as an experience point and fill up an experience bar towards the next level. The way the Tokens act as a currency in the Meta Upgrade Menu will not be touched, but more on that later. When you earned a level up, you will be offered three random upgrade options (just like before) and can select one of those per level up. After selecting that upgrade, the offered options will instantly be rerolled. So you have to make a decision which of the three you are going to pick up.
Experience levels will also be earned much faster in the beginning of the game to help you get much quicker into the action than before! Another change to the run upgrades are that there are just many new options, some of those have preconditions that must be fulfilled for them to be added to the upgrade pool. Speaking of the upgrade pool - Upgrades now also have a rarity attached to them with a higher or lower chance for them to be offered as one of the three upgrades.
The new Dash Charge, Evasive Attack or Ship Health upgrades (just examples of new upgrades that will be included) will appear with a lower chance than e.g. Ship Speed. The main weapon upgrades are now also more individual to each ship class. Some upgrades will also have negative impacts and need to be carefully considered. For example, the Fire Rate upgrade for the Blaster class will slow your ship down while firing. This can of course be countered with increasing your ship speed - But it's not as much of a "no-brainer" as it was before. In the current version, it takes quite some time until your ship can feel really powerful and some upgrades are really only noticeable after a couple of upgrades. This will also change a lot in 2.0! As you could quickly rack up certain upgrades before (due to the option to purchase multiple upgrades per wave) I had to balance them to a pretty high level - Level 20 was the "soft cap" for ship upgrades. In 2.0, the soft cap is at Level 10. That results in each upgrade having a much more noticeable effect. Another change will be made to the way you can heal up your ship. Right now you can purchase ship heals as part of the normal upgrade pool. This lead to an interesting choice for players as you know the price for the heal will increase with every purchased heal. I liked that idea of limited supplied for heals but I still didn't like the idea of healing as an upgrade. Healing was now moved to a separate Ship Module, purchaseable in the Upgrade Menu: The Repair Bot.
This can be used once per charge in-between waves. The amount of charges can be increased to a certain point via the Upgrade Menu, but you can also get additional charges as upgrades form the upgrade pool (but they are rare, so it can be a tough choice). Eventually, Repair Bots will also be dropped in-game, but I am not sure on that at the moment. The beta test will solve the decision for sure.

Menu Upgrades

The Upgrade Menu design was already overhauled in 1.0.8 - and the reason behind it was mostly preparations for 2.0! In general, the way the Upgrade Menu works won't be changed, you will still get the Tokens you earned in-game as a currency outside of the game to purchase upgrades in the Upgrade Menu. In 2.0 you will get more options for upgrades and those upgrades will sometimes have preconditions. So you will only be able to purchase e.g. the new upgrade Hunterswarm Launcher if you have Dash and Missiles upgraded. This will help new players to not be overwhelmed with choices in the beginning and give more seasoned players unlocks to work towards.

Ingame Specials

If you already played Beat Invaders a little bit you probably noticed that sometimes you can shoot a fat Laser Beam (known as the Hyperbeam) or get an Attack Boost that will increase your Fire Rate and make you invulnerable. Right now these additional Skills known as Specials are automatically activated on pickup. This lead to some frustration with players picking up a Hyperbeam just for it to be wasted on the last two remaining enemies. In a past Update, this behaviour was changed so the Hyperbeam was only fired when you pressed the fire button - but it could still lead to frustrating moments when there are two enemies left and you have no other way of getting rid of them but to fire. This whole system will be overhauled and expanded. In 2.0 you will get a new, dedicated button to activate Specials that you picked up. In the lower right corner of the screen there will be an icon, showing you if you have currently a Special picked up that is ready to use.
Your ship can only hold one Special at a time. So you sometimes need to choose to use your Special at a certain time to pick up a new one or actively decide to let a new Special pass your ship to keep your current Special for later use. There will also be some new Specials and the current two specials are overhauled a bit. New Specials include a two-bar Heal, an Invunerability Shield, a Token Pickup Magnet and maybe more!

And more!

You can look forward to new Event Wave types, new Enemies, and new Encounters that will spice up each run!

World Progression

In 2.0, the game will be split up into four Sectors:

• Novis Alpha
• Aeris Station
• Tartarus Colony
• Nox Nebula

Each Sector will feature a unique appearance and, if everything works out on a different aspect of 2.0 (eventually there will be a cool suprise), a unique playlist. Sector 2, Aeris Station, will also feature a new boss encounter at the end of the Sector - So fighting your way into the Tartarus Colony won't be easy! The goal for the future will be to have one boss encounter at the end of each Sector - but this will take a little longer and I am looking forward to have more cool content updates for the future! I hope this change will give you the feeling of progressing and moving through a universe instead of just being stuck in a long, uniform tunnel.

Difficulty Level

At the moment, the difficulty level seems too easy for a lot of you. I hope to improve this with a balancing changes. Those will include a rebalance of certain ship class upgrades, e.g. adjusting the overall power of the Spreadshot class. But it will also include rebalancing enemy health and aspects like player health from the upgrade menu. Playing a bit rewards enough Upgrade Tokens to upgrade Player Health to pretty crazy values. This in combination with the ingame heal/repair Upgrades can be enough to make the ship very tanky - to the point where you can just take hits and don't need to really care a lot about it. This will be tackled by introducing a cap to this upgrade in 2.0 - You will still be able to upgrade your ships maximum health via rare ingame Upgrades - but this will level the playground for players to stop the "grind" to a bigger and bigger high score. Another balancing change will change how the prices in the Upgrade Menu work. They will have an exponential growth in their price from upgrading them and will also increase the prices of all other upgrades. That will result in having to think more which upgrade to get at which point to get the best out of your Upgrade Tokens. Some of the Upgrades will also receive ingame Upgrade counter-parts to further enhance the ability - for example: the Dash ability now works using charges. These charges can be increased to a maximum of three with rare in-game Upgrades to give you more manouverability. You can get the first charge and unlock the ingame Upgrades via the Upgrade Menu. Further charges will only appear in-game. A balancing change to enemies will include just buffing them more regulary with more health as sometimes, waves were evaporated in mere seconds, especially in higher levels. The ship classes will also get some more changes.
The Pulse Blaster class was often seen as the weakest one because of the single shot. Even though Piercing is a powerful upgrade - it just couldn't cut it against the Spreadshot class or the insane penetration and crazy rate of fire on an Attack Boosted Railgun class. The Pulse Blaster class will get an overhaul of the Width upgrade, now called Charge. The Ship already starts with a Charge Level of one - meaning when you will not fire, your main weapon will charge up and fire more projectiles when you release the trigger. This can be further upgraded to fire more projectiles, charge up quicker or make them more powerful when fully charged. There are also epic Upgrades that will make the Blaster class a ship to be taken serious when compared to the Spreadshot class. The Railgun class is another class that was often overlooked - of course it will also receive some more balancing changes and powerups. And an epic Upgrade that will give the ship offensive capabilities while charging up the main weapon - which is something many considered as a "too-big" trade off to play the class.

Feature requests, Bugs, General things

Of course, a lot of other things will be changed, too. A lot of those have been requested in the community. One of the most requested features was the Global Leaderboard. In 2.0, the High Scores menu will feature a new global top score board. I thought about this for quite a while, but at this point I am sure it will benefit all players. The performance in general will get a big boost, especially in the late game when a lot of bullets are on the screen - I completely refactored how bullets are handled in the game and it allows for much, much more stuff going on without any performance hit.

And of course: THANK YOU for all the reports here on Steam and on the Discord.

It really helps to identify those problems and most of the reported bugs are either already patched or will be patched in 2.0 - I hope you have a little more patience for some of the problems (Meteoroid waves, Fullscreen in some Linux distributions and some more).

Closing words

This was quite a long post - but still not everything has been said about 2.0! There are still some really cool things waiting to be talked about or shown off. I hope you are as excited as I am. And again: There will be a beta test and if you are interested in taking part it would be best to join the Discord Server! Follow the link in the game or just click here.

Patch 1.0.83 - Patch notes (Minor Patch)

Changes:

• New players will now receive an Attack Boost when starting a new game.

Bugfixes:

[ 2022-03-20 10:42:05 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hey everyone!

these are going to be longer patch notes, so tighten your ships seat belts, put on your headphones with some nice beats and lean back. First, the two biggest feature updates
New Upgrade Screen
New Controls menu with customizable controls There were bugreports and feedback on the community hub and via the official Discord server which I invite anyone to join to get some updates while I work on new features or just give me direct feedback! Here is a Link to the Discord Server. THANK you very much for helping me with detailed reports - those make finding those nasty bugs much, much easier! This patch is not just including bugfixes and features. My original intent was to do so - but to be honest, seeing videos of people reaching wave 300+ that were in a pretty broken state made me sad. Altough this patch introduces balancing changes, the leaderboard will not be reset for the moment! My plan is to reset the leaderboards with the next patch - as the next patch will introduce new, gameplay changing - features and new upgrades. This will also give me a chance to do more, smaller balancing fine tuning until the reset.

If you are actually reading this, let me know in the comments:

A) Would you like to see the leaderboard being completely reset. B) Have some way to look at legacy leaderboards when a reset is happening or a "season" ends? With all of this said, let's continue with the patch notes and have fun with the new version! Cheers Raffa

[ 2022-03-20 02:17:08 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hey everyone!

As it was pointed out in the Community Hub by players, it was often happening that Drones, either in Drone Waves or as smaller groups, moved so much to the side that the multiplier was lost. This is, of course, not the ideal behaviour - so this was fixed alongside with more fixes and some small balancing changes. There was also another important change! For many players it was frustrating to completely lose the multiplier - and in some circumstances it can happen pretty quickly. That caused the feeling that the run was already lost and worth nothing. To counter this, the multiplier will now decay instead of instantly reset. You will now have two seconds where the multiplier decays until it hits zero. Cheers Raffa

Patch 1.0.7 - Patch notes

Features and Changes:

• Added the Multiplier decay - The Multiplier will now degrade over two seconds.
• Pressing 'B' / 'Square' on the gamepad now skips the upgrade screen.

• Drones will not exit the play area and will also always spawn inside the play area.
• On Easy Mode, it will take longer before the first Drone or Meteroid waves appear.
• Performance was increased a bit overall.

Balancing:

• Ship Class Pulse Blaster: The main weapons "Penetration" upgrade will now deal bonus damage to Meteroids based on its level.
• Ship Class Spreadshot: The main weapons homing ability was removed.
• Ship Class Railgun: The main weapons charging is now more obvious and emits a distinctive sound when fully charged. The railgun will also deal bonus damage to Meteroids.
• Ship Class Railgun: The beam width was increased.
• Shielder Enemies will take longer to recharge their shield skill.
• Optimized the homing capabilities of Micro Missiles and Hunterswarm Missiles
• A Meteroid will take longer to destroy itself on ramming things.
• The players Convoy Freighters will be able to apply much more pushback the a Meteroid

Bugfixes:

• Fixed a bug where Meteroids rammed each other, sometimes resulting in Meteroids flying outside the play area.
• Fixed a bug where Convoy Freighters did not get their upgrades after the Boss fight.
• Fixed a bug where Drone Waves were over before all drone groups were taken down.
• Fixed a bug where the Railguns ship was sometimes not hitting correctly.

[ 2022-03-14 04:32:30 CET ] [ Original post ]

Hey everyone!

this is just a minor patch to squish some bugs. If you have an eye for details, you noticed I changed the version format - This will stay this way from now on I hope you enjoy the game! Cheers Raffa
