Asteroid: Pre-SEASON v1.1.5 Patch Notes

Hello travelers, Here are the Asteroid: Pre-SEASON v1.1.5 patch notes!

  • We fixed an issue with the cursor: prior to this patch it did not correctly follow the position of the mouse pointer or the right analog stick (when using a controller) once it reached the edge of the screen, locking the cursor in that position for a short time.
  • Minor bugs fixed.
COMING WITH THE NEXT PATCHES
  • A graphic restyle of the main menu is foreseen.
  • A modernization of the controller control system is planned, allowing the movement of the sticks at 360 instead of the only 8 directions available and improving the use of the control buttons.
  • New ships are coming for purchase in the Shop.
  • New Events are coming.
  • Bug fixes found in development and reported by users.
We hope you will continue to enjoy Asteroid!

Trick or treat? Spooky Festival makes its debut in Asteroid!

New Solo Challenge Event!


Spooky Festival makes its debut in Asteroid: Pre-SEASON with game version 1.1.4 from October 14th to November 7th 2022! Collect pumpkins, skulls and zombie heads to earn Spooky points to exchange for Halloween-themed rewards!

New cosmetic items: here are the Banners!


Banners are new cosmetic items that can be obtained from Events by completing missions and purchasing them from the Shop. With the Spooky Festival Solo Challenge Event you can get 2 Halloween themed banners! Banners are displayed every time you open the menu or when you join an online lobby and can be easily changed from the Garage!

Icing on the cake: a global test for Asteroid Online is coming!


Asetroid Online is Asteroid's online multiplayer mode scheduled to launch later this year. In this mode it will be possible to play with a friend or a stranger by connecting in the same room to explore space together, fight in the Black Hole Raid to get rewards, compete in the PvP Arena, exchange items and much more. In 2023, the possible number of players in the same room is expected to increase from 2 to 4 players. We will also aim to create an MMO room shared with all players, but for now let's start thinking small! The global test for Asteroid Online is coming this November. We invite you to follow us both here on Steam and on all our social networks such as Twitter, Discord and Instagram to find out when it will be available to the public.

Asteroid: Pre-SEASON v1.1.3 Patch Notes

Hello travelers, Here are the Asteroid: Pre-SEASON v1.1.3 patch notes!

  • Added "Return to title screen" button accessible from the game menu. This will allow the player to easily return to the title screen without worrying about having to close the game. We took the opportunity to solve the problem related to the Options, previously not accessible during the game session and which could only be consulted from the main menu. For the moment it is still like this due to some compatibility problems with some settings: to change them during the session, just go back to the title screen, change the Options from the main menu and resume the adventure.
  • Added system alerts regarding game updates and server-level maintenance.
  • The "Survey" function has been added to the extended menu. This feature will allow players to receive free rewards by completing short user experience surveys. The surveys are fully localized in the English language. In the future, exclusive surveys may be proposed for specific geographic areas.
  • The social icons of Alestore Inc. have been added to the main menu that refer to Twitter, Instagram, Facebook and Discord.
  • Minor bugs fixed.
KNOWN ISSUES
  • We are investigating a cursor problem. It would not correctly follow the position of the mouse pointer or the right analog stick (when using a controller) once it reached the edge of the screen, locking the cursor in that position for a short time.
COMING WITH THE NEXT PATCHES
  • A graphic restyle of the main menu is foreseen.
  • A modernization of the controller control system is planned, allowing the movement of the sticks at 360 instead of the only 8 directions available and improving the use of the control buttons.
  • New ships are coming for purchase in the Shop.
  • New Events are coming.
  • Bug fixes found in development and reported by users.
We hope you will continue to enjoy Asteroid!

Asteroid: Pre-SEASON v1.1.2 Patch Notes

Hello travelers, Here are the Asteroid: Pre-SEASON v1.1.2 patch notes!

  • Fixed an issue with the Shop: prior to this patch, items were not changing daily as expected.
  • The loading screen has undergone some changes. A slideshow is now visible showing news, Events and other key information related to the game during initial loading when Asteroid is launched from the client. The loading bar has been moved to the bottom right.
  • Added the Nautical License accessible from the game menu by clicking on the profile banner at the bottom left. From here you can view player related information such as the Pilot (username), adventure start date, game time, enemies eliminated and more. The section is constantly updated and we intend to give players the opportunity to customize it.
  • Improved the resolution of visual damage counters that appear when an enemy is hit.
  • Minor bugs fixed.
KNOWN ISSUES
  • We are investigating an Event related issue. The "Star Collector" Global Challenge Event would not correctly count the stars collected by players, resetting or completely changing the counter number shared with all players.
  • We are investigating a cursor problem. It would not correctly follow the position of the mouse pointer or the right analog stick (when using a controller) once it reached the edge of the screen, locking the cursor in that position for a short time.
COMING WITH THE NEXT PATCHES
  • A graphic restyle of the main menu is foreseen.
  • The social icons of Alestore Inc. will be added to the main menu with related links to Twitter, Instagram, Facebook and Discord.
  • The "Survey" function will be added to the extended menu. This feature will allow players to receive free in-game rewards by completing small user experience surveys.
  • The Options, currently available and modifiable only and exclusively in the main menu, can also be viewed in the extended menu during the game session. Note: initially some of the settings such as language and control mode will not be editable from the extended menu, and will therefore have to be changed from the main menu anyway.
  • New ships are coming for purchase in the Shop.
  • New Events are coming.
  • Bug fixes found in development and reported by users.
We hope you will continue to enjoy Asteroid!

We found a video recorded by a traveler...

During these days we have found in our signals a recording made by what is referred to in the video as a "traveler". We've done some careful analysis, but we still can't figure out who sent the message. [previewyoutube=ygGDodhPRm4;full][/previewyoutube]

Asteroid: PRE-Season is AVAILABLE NOW!

[previewyoutube=965D1lliNfI;full][/previewyoutube] Hi, I'm Alessandro, the developer of the game, and I speak on behalf of the entire development team at Alestore Games. We are pleased to announce that Asteroid: Pre-SEASON is now available to the public and is free to download on Steam with in-game purchases for 64-bit Windows and Linux operating systems! Asteroid has been in development since 2018, when we were still beginners with software development. In short, it was a bit of a gamble, a kid who was 12 at the time and now 17, saw this game grow with him, along with the dream of being able to create an indie video game studio. This dream is becoming a reality every day, and in addition to Asteroid we are preparing many other projects, some already announced and others not. In any case, we want to ensure lasting support for Asteroid, offering players constant free updates to keep the game and its community active. We are really happy and proud of this result. We hope you can't wait to get into the game! That's all for now, however expect plenty of free announcements and updates in the coming days! For more information on this, please keep an eye on our brand new Twitter account, Instagram and Discord official server.

"Asteroid: Pre-SEASON" Announcement


Dear travelers, Asteroid: Pre-SEASON is the start of the season of Asteroid: The Burning Planet without including some of the features expected at launch such as access to the planet Vuur and the Story mode. It will then be possible to play freely to prepare for the arrival of the new season by carrying out Black Hole Raid battles, Black Hole Raid Max, quests and more. This decision was made following some technical problems in the development tools that will be resolved shortly. Furthermore, this will allow us to work and improve the quality of the Story mode and the planet Vuur at the launch of the game. At the same time, we have no intention of postponing the official release of the game. Therefore, this also serves as a global test and to give the possibility to play even to those who had not participated in the past beta tests. Although this is a "test" season, your game progress will still be maintained from Asteroid Pre-SEASON up to Asteroid: The Burning Planet and subsequent seasons. Missing features will be added gradually with free updates. If you have already purchased the Asteroid - Expansion Pass DLC, you will still receive the bonuses and content provided by the purchase. Asteroid: Pre-SEASON will be released on August 26, 2022. The functions NOT accessible at launch will be: - Story mode - Access to the planet Vuur - Wish - Superspace (as it is unlocked during the progression of the Story mode and is used to easily get to a planet already visited) - Celestial Gift - Controller support and touch screen controls (These two features will be added in a free update shortly after the release of Asteroid: Pre-SEASON) - Asteroid Online (online multiplayer mode coming by 2023) All other features announced and confirmed in both trailers and press releases will be available starting with the launch of Asteroid: Pre-SEASON. For more information on this, please keep an eye on our brand new Twitter account, Instagram and Discord official server. Thank you for your understanding and we apologize for any inconvenience caused. We would like to give a first taste of Asteroid to the whole world without further postponing the work. See you in System 97! ~ Alessandro (director of Alestore Inc.)

Asteroid is an open world action adventure RPG set in space.

A world without limits

The universe is infinite and procedurally generated. Explore every corner of the galaxy to find treasures and precious resources, but also planets and enemies never seen before!


Story mode

The universe has changed: someone is trying to steal a mysterious power given by the gods to help a past civilization survive. Free the planets of hostilities and find out what is happening. During your journey, you may encounter many people willing to help you out, upgrade your ship and equipment, or even pay you to do some quests.

Asteroid's story mode is in constant development and each planet presents its own narrative arc.
With the addition of other planets, there will also be the introduction of a new chapter of the story mode.

Updates and Seasons

We plan to support the game with constant updates and Seasons, with new content to play, events and customizable ships!
Seasons are major updates that introduce new planets and chapters of story mode, in addition to the content mentioned above!
The first Season, Asteroid: The Burning Planet, will launch on august 26, 2022 and it will include the lava planet Vuur.

Fight fierce bosses in Black Hole Raids!

Black Hole Raids are boss fights to be done alone or with friends* which confer valuable rewards such as Flact, Lunar Dust and Aquanium Gems.



During the course of your exploration, you may come across a Black Hole - enter it to access a Black Hole Raid.
Black Holes differ in shape, color and size: depending on these parameters, the difficulty and rewards can vary, so always keep an eye on them!

*At launch it will only be possible to play alone. We are working to make the Alestore Online Play service for Asteroid active as soon as possible, but for the moment we expect its possible release during the course of 2023.

Customization

Being stylish is also important in the Z9 galaxy!
The Item Shop offers a variety of spaceships to purchase* to show off your gorgeous look, and if you are not satisfied with the proposed selection, don't worry: items change every day!



*To purchase the items in the Item Shop, it is necessary to have Aquanium Gems, a currency that can be obtained by playing for free or through in-app purchases with microtransactions.

Events

There will be new events with rewards every month, so always keep an eye on the Steam update page for Asteroid, the official Discord server and the Events section within the game!

Online multiplayer

We intend to make Asteroid an online experience by allowing users to have fun with friends by playing in the same game world and participating in events.
The Alestore Online Play service is in development for Asteroid and we can't wait to release more information, so we recommend you follow the Steam updates page for Asteroid and the official Discord server.
We expect the service to launch in 2023.

...And more!

Even more surprises await you in Asteroid, play and enjoy!
