We are proud to have reached another milestone by releasing a massive update for the early access of Spheriums. We hope you like the latest update and invite you to play it again if you have bought Spheriums and leave a review.

Gameplay, Interface, and Visual Enhancements

• Complete revamp of the level design of Korala, getting the game closer to the final vision of the first world.
• Electromagnetic discharge - Implement a new secondary fire for the magnetism weapon. Hit an enemy to slow it down considerably for easier shooting. Like any secondary weapon, it uses energy.
  
• Drainer Mechs - A new invader with dual bullet shooting is patrolling Korala. Beware!
  
• Objective - Players were often lost at the beginning of the game. We have added many new goals to help the player knows what to do early on in the game.
• Boss - Rework the "Choker" boss on Korala with a better attack pattern, more apparent weaknesses, and a higher difficulty level for a better fighting challenge.
  
• Drastically change the firing speed of an energy blast for better accuracy.
• Control Panel - Add a new visual panel switch to help the player recognize a machine and how to interact with it (Dimensional gate, crafting machine, recharging power-pack station).
• When hitting him, the elemental Mexodin shakes the camera and pushes the player a little bit.
• Any weapons can now destroy poison puddles & Choker bombs.
• Show how to use a weapon after crafting a weapon implant with an informative visual.
• Reduce the needed resources drastically to do the first inventory storage upgrade.
• Update the liprite resource with a better visual (new mesh and material)
• Show missing shortcut in key mapping UI.
