It's now possible to host a dedicated server. Setting up map rotation etc. is done by editing the DedicatedServer.txt file in the game folder. A standalone server (which won't require owning the base game) will be available soon. Added new miniraptors secondary weapon. It launches tiny minions to destroy things for you. They can be equipped with chainguns, missile launchers or tesla coils. Unlock them by defeating the carrier (radioactive zone wave 10) or dreadnought (electron storm wave 5). AI is now better at shooting/chasing moving targets. Fixed some particle glitches for mac (probably) Added a new bot which uses a shredder, hyperdisc and chaingun miniraptors. MiniMissile primary weapon. Now you can spam missiles even when there's no ammo. It can be unlocked on Anomaly, Radioactive Zone or Electron Storm. Added a heavy dummy to target practice mode. Drill missiles now stick in things more reliably Torpedoes now launch directly forwards. Bombs and mines have bigger explosions.

FAST, CHALLENGING ONLINE CO-OP

Take control of a cyberdragon and annihilate swarms of rocket propelled chainsaws either online or via LAN in this high speed, high skill 8 player co-op twinstick shooter.

DESIGN YOUR OWN WEAPONS

Harvest components from the smoking wreckage of your enemies and construct a vast arsenal of crazy weaponry. Gatling laser guided rocket launchers, bear teleporters and singularity cannons are just the beginning. All this customization isn’t just for show, either. Different weapon and character builds allow for a huge range of effective playstyles.

TACTICAL DEPTH

The space skeleton armada is cunning and merciless – flanking, sniping, cloaking and teleporting are just a few of the tricks the AI is capable of. However, if you learn their tactics you can use your enemies weapons against them. All attacks have full friendly fire, and exceptional players can annihilate entire fleets by tricking them into shooting each other.

MASSIVE BOSSES

After obliterating enough regular enemies, you’ll have to face down screen filling deathmachines like the Killdozer, Bullet Devil and Terror Fortress Omega.

"A beautiful shoot em up with super fast paced and challenging combat."
- Nick Puleo, Co-Optimus

"Want to be a teleporting, mine dropping, laser blade wielding cyberdragon? Or evasive and armed with railgun and chaingun? Or do you want to mind control enemy ships and use your laser like a tractor beam? All those playstyles are equally viable."
- Christian Valentin, Indie Game Enthusiast
