Hey guys! It’s time to go grab Update #4, the “Get your Butt to Pluto!” update!
Why’s it called the “Get your Butt to Pluto!” update? Well, that’s because there’s never been a better time to get your butt to Pluto and kick King Kevin’s uh...butt. Although, wait a sec - he doesn’t have one. Because he’s a giant fluorescent pink disembodied mutant head.
Anywho. The game now has a real ending, complete with sweet new visuals and sounds! No more “temp screen with some text on it” shenanigans! No siree. So get your butt to Pluto and bask in the glory of...A REAL ENDING.
And that’s probably not even the most exciting thing in this update. We’ve made some pretty meaty changes to combat tuning and difficulty. Long story short, the game is still tough as nails and requires you to build a pretty sweet ship. BUT! Combat now feels more tactical, more “fair.” This is due to changes to how weapon range increases with level. It used to be that weapon range would increase quite a bit as they leveled up, and you’d end up getting blasted to pieces by higher-level enemies before you could even get in range to fight them on even footing. This effect has now been drastically lessened. The range differences between individual weapon types now have much more meaning. Of course, this being a pretty huge change, we’d love to get your feedback. So please let us know what you think in the forums.
Oh wait! That’s not even the most exciting thing in this update! I almost forgot: the options menu has some new audio, video, and control settings! Ok fine, so maybe that isn’t the most exciting thing, but it’s totally necessary and something that’s been lacking for quite a while now. It’s great to have it working in-game finally!
There’s a bunch of other smaller changes and bug fixes in this update, and we’ve also cut down the install size of the game. This should make it quicker to download, and easier on your hard drive!
This update is our biggest yet, and thus took a little longer than usual. Apologies for that, but we think it’s been worth the wait so that we could make these changes and properly finish up the game’s finale.
So have fun and build rad spaceships! We’ll have more news on the general future of the project really soon.
Cheers!
