Asteroids ++ 1.2.0 - NEW CAMPAIGNS, DAILY LEVELS, NEW SHOP ITEMS, NEW ASTEROID!

Features and Changes


I am probably going to forget to cover something, so I am going to try my best to mention the best features.

NEW CAMPAIGNS



Added 3 new campaigns are added, Red Moons (2 satelites), Kepler-90 (8 planets) and the Teegarden Family (3 planets) The game has significantly more content than ever! (Note: Inventory items are required for these campaigns to be played)

NEW ASTEROIDS



You don't want to touch them. These new asteroids are also added in Sandbox

NEW MUSIC


New Music was added when black asteroids appear, check it out in the soundtest or on youtube! (Or just buy a soundtrack to support the developer) [previewyoutube=xxu9kNzawHU;leftthumb][/previewyoutube] [previewyoutube=trA63A1Bm-U;rightthumb][/previewyoutube]

DAILY LEVELS


Asteroids was always about who can be the best player. Play a randomized sector with randomized weapon loadout with randomized asteroids! How fun! Rewards in daily levels are credits, the reward is higher depending on how hard the daily level is, the difficulty on a daily level also matters greatly (realistic gives a lot of credits) You can now enjoy daily content and compete with players every day! Play through very short levels!

PLANET DROPS


The 2nd drop of planets is officially done! You can no longer buy planets from the store, the 3rd drop is coming very shortly after this update, I will be revealing them in a future news post.

CRAFTING



A new menu was remade for the steam inventory so I can put things in like crafting. This isn't still fully complete as I need to add more items, but we have a nice foundation in general now

NEW SHOP ITEMS


MINI ROCK-PODS (Weapon)



Cost: 50, Procedural Cost: 31

WAVE CRUNCH (Utility)



Cost: 75, Procedural Cost: 20 These items add a nice dynamic to the game and there is also skill trees for both of the shop items

GAMEPLAY CHANGES


TIME LEFT INDICATOR



Ever wanted to know when the wave ends? In 1.2.0, the small ship that shows the wave counter will move towards the next wave number. Once it's close enough, that is the indicator of the next wave.

WAVE SKIP REWARD


Instead of giving coins instantly upon wave skip completion, it will now spread them out in a level. This is more of a balance change to make the magnet seem more unique to player loadouts, but at the same time lower the cost of the Convince utility because it was too damn expensive! I'd like to hear your opinion on this change because it is a pretty significant one.

HARDMODE SHOP DISABLED


I've disabled the shop in hardcore (and daily levels) because there is an exploit to avoid death during hardcore by just going to the shop during gameplay. You can still prevent death by going to the title screen, but all collected coins won't be saved, which was possible previously.

OTHER


  • Sector completion coin reward now depends on what grade the player got
  • Shield Regen while idle is now healing 50% more instead of 200%
  • Updated recruitment names
  • Improved loading
  • Improved sector generation
  • Ship Spikes Cost: 75 > 50
  • Updated steamworks api, in the future, timelines will be included
  • Fixed timestop for the mothership boss (thanks BrawnyVolt)
  • Added a new achievement

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
  • Frequent Free in-Game Updates
and so on...

This game is FREE TO PLAY! If you think that you are ripping me off, well, of course you are! So, what are you waiting for!
And remember, you can never end Asteroid genocide!
