Flew back from Honduras yesterday, it was amazing! Swimming with dolphins, monkeys crawling on my head and big spiky dogs. It's nice to re connect with nature.
And I just looked at the sales figures and the 2 weeks birthday sale was a really good surprise, selling far more than any steam sale ever did. So thank you for the birthday gift :)
That super motivated me and I just finish tending to a few support requests I received for those 10 days.
-Now the Mac version works, I had turned on mac store validation by mistake
-I added FXAA, so now antialias should be faster and look better, also added a setting for that if you want extra fps.
-Lowered the shadows PCF # and removed PCF on many of shaders that didn't need it, this should gain you a few FPS
-Optimized the shadows draw distance so people setting Quality to low will run at a faster framerate
-Finally, foliage setting properly persists.
So give it a shot, it's in the publicbeta branch, if all is good I'll push it to the main. Have a great day.

McDROID - The Swan Song DLC
A super frantic Arcade Tower Defense, McDROID starts gently then progressively challenges your trigger finger and your wits (and your sanity) as you multitask like a robotic-spider-doggy-thing: running, shooting, building base, herding, healing, harvesting, repairing, planting, upgrading, researching, frying giant snail-hammer-thing with a giant-tesla-on-your-back (it actually happens).
Defend your shuttle against a variety of alien species as they mutate, corrupt the ground or even turn your crops against you. Load up on, play solo campaign or join in up to 3 people in survival arenas and take the battle to the enemy. If it gets too crazy, turtle up behind your defensive perimeter and assume direct control of the turrets.
Crash landing on their home planet, McDROID the robot and her brother Shuttle find everything too quiet, their sentient Planet is now mute, lobotomized by something evil. As they venture on a quest to heal her hearts, they encounter various strange critters and must use creative strategies.
Features:
- (Batsh!t crazy) story campaign where each level uncovers a new game mechanic and research blueprint, and where you heal a planet.
- Hard as nail Survival Levels with persistence: your towers and economy stay with you from death to death, but also bomb trees, unfortunately.
- Persistent Research. Do you focus on improving your lasers first or branch out into bliss engine as you climb through the research trees?
- Drop in/Drop out Co-Op: if you're overwhelmed in single campaign, have some robot-buddies join you.
- Persistent base building: Complete a level on Normal and you can play on in Challenge and Nightmare modes. Your base and economy will carry over but will have to withstand much deadlier attacks!
- Unique towers that create powerful synergies such as boosting power of automatic robots or teslas chain linking.
- Space age cartoon graphics.
- Not 40s, not 50s, not 80s but 60 rock!
- Harvest the only sensible resource of the future: Unfeasibly large strawberries.
- Achievements awarded for tasks ranging from tricky to insane.
- Find the decals and paint to customize your McDROID, they are scattered about.
- Supports Xbox 360 controller
