Sol Fusion... what if the final boss is lasers?

Real talk about game development: There's never enough hours to make all the things you want to make. When we released the Sol Fusion megacorp tower last year, there wasn't enough time to add the final boss: *absolute tons of lasers*. With each additional update to add the other megacorp towers, there was never enough time to go back to Sol Fusion. But we decided May 2024 would be Lasers Month.
This meant not only fixing all the bugged lasers throughout the tower by hand one at a time, but creating a new boss fight arena with tons of rotating laser sweeps. You can limbo under the lasers to stay alive or take risks to get them to sweep through the enemies. Let us know what's the best strategy!

New Pizza, Same Great Flavor

Since this patch was all about improvement, we took the time to replace some of the Volcanyon terrain to make the new game experience a little smoother. That included replacing the Machiavelli's Pizza server with a better platforming experience and doubling the lava for the pizza ovens. There have been some persistent bugs with the mission system and waypoints and this self-improvement / self-care patch fixed as many of those as we could find. Plus we may have fixed the bug with enemies getting stuck inside servers!

Looking Ahead: Zheglov-Mang

Just like a delicious pizza, sometimes good things take awhile to cook. Zheglov-Mang's trap-filled tower is going to take us a little bit longer to build. Stay ready!
