Asteroids ++ 1.1.6 - NEW WEAPON - HOOK

Release ++ 1.1.6


(Note... linux isnt updated because there are issues with it, also quad damage is still busted on the final boss)

NEW WEAPON: HOOK


  • Release to throw, hold to pull! The hook will automatically hook in asteroids, dealing damage, and then pull coins when the hook has reached full capacity. Each level gives an additional hook which gets faster, deals more damage, and can carry more coins. This weapon is supposed to be more of an idle weapon and note that it is extremely expensive.
  • There is also skill tree available for this new weapon!

NEW GAMEPLAY OPTION: Max Asteroids


  • This has been added to address performance issues, maximum amount of asteroids can be present on the screen (256-1024, infinite will be added later), while lower numbers may make the game easier, it will take longer to beat sectors if its limited. Only use if the game performance isn't great
  • In the future, if the limit is set, asteroids wont spawn from bigger asteroids (large, huge, triplet) but instead placed in queue for normal spawning if there is too many asteroids for performance reasons, unless the setting is set to infinite.

Other


  • Rockets will only seek enemies if it's in range (Nerf), only made to make bigger sectors a bit harder since rocket was broken in them. This also applies to UFO rockets though.
  • Recruitments will only seek and shoot at enemies if its close in range (Nerf, but this is only made to prevent lag)
  • Skill tree changes: Increased level requirement for all skill categories:
Weapons: 2.5 Levels > 3.5 Levels Abilities: 3.5 Levels > 4.5 Levels Utilities 4.5 Levels > 5.5 Levels In general there is a bigger grind but if you are level 50 you shouldn't really worry about it too much.
  • Weekly planet is now perfectly in sync with all players Oh yeah, final thing, and big nerf here:
  • Wave skips will now award 5$ per wave instead of 10$

Fixes


  • Fixed issue with hard planets saying it's always "June"
  • Fixed issue where its possible that the game will say that you've played before but the player launched the game for the first time
  • Improved recruitment AI so that they better avoid large and huge asteroids (havent tested with triplets, mothership or final boss)

Known issues


Machine Gun doesn't work if UFOs with machine guns are present The game could still crash on campaign, it's much harder to track from where since the common bugs have been fixed, thanks for reporting! If you have any bugs to report or features to request, click here

  • Asteroids ++ is the best Asteroids clone you will ever play in your life.


    The Year is 2450.

    Humanity has expanded their technology and improved in Rocketry. There was nothing out of the ordinary until disaster struck!

    A moon one light year away exploded and has spread asteroids all over our solar system, this is where YOU come in!

    You play as one of the captains who will control one of the spaceships! Go from planet to planet and get rid of the Asteroids!



    When starting the game, you randomly generate sectors in planets based on set seed.

    Inside the shop, expect to buy and customize parts for your spaceship. There are 36 weapons, 24 abilities and 12 unique abilities, which give over one million possible combinations for your loadout.

    Each weapon is unique.
    • Shoot homing rockets that lock onto the biggest Asteroids, or have recruitments collect money instead of you doing it!
    • Stop time with the Timestop ability or DROP DOWN A F______ NUKE
    • Upgrade your speed upgrade for the spaceship so you can be so fast that your spaceship pierces through Asteroids!

    In the game you'll face different types of enemies.
    • Yellow Asteroids split up into more smaller ones than usual
    • UFOs mimic the player's weapons and will try to use them against you.
    • A Snake is a long row of Asteroids rolling up to the player!

    There's simply so much things happening at once!



    Endless Run is a gamemode in the game that acts like a Roguelike version of the game!

    Beat a sector, then choose between 3 powerups, which can be a permanent upgrade, a new weapon, or something that buffs you but nerfs your character at the same time.

    Compete in an online leaderboard and try to survive as long as possible as the upcoming waves get harder and harder to conquer!

    There's so much replay value!



    Welcome to the Asteroids ++ Universe!
    In here you create your own solar systems, planets and sectors!

    • Click on a desired tile
    • Edit how many waves you want
    • What types of enemies you want
    • Restrictions to weapons, levels and starting cash
    • Or even customize how your own planet looks!
    Heck, make your own Solar System with virtually infinite player-made planets! And then share it through the Steam Workshop!



    There's loads of more content!

    • Seasonal Campaign Additions
    • Weekly Planet Events
    • Daily Levels
    • Fun in-game Cheats
    • Rich Story through Computer Logs you find
    • Player Customization
