todays update to 1.0.7 bring: - enabled resizing of window, without going fullscreen - the UI focus circle in the tutorial automatically disappears now after 7 seconds - fixed bugs in the training, where the game would sometimes not start and end correctly

Good news everybody! ASTEROID FIGHT is released to 1.0 on April 10th! Early Access helped us a lot with identifying bugs, building requested features, letting the community decide on which new items should be implemented, growing a small community, optimizing infrastructure, holding tournaments and playing lots of matches. Thank you all for your support! 1.0 is finally bringing a lot of features and changes since we originally started into Early Access:

• ASTEROID FIGHT will be released as Free to Play! Multiplayer games live from participation and therefore we wanted to lower the bar for new players to get involved. To cover the server costs we are introducing an ingame upgrade shop for convenience features. Convenience features can be purchased with REFINED MINERALS + COSA (COins rewarded for Special Activities). REFINED MINERALS can be purchased with real money or COSA. COSA can be earned through different activities like winning or losing ranked matches. We wanted to reward participation, so you don't need to spend real money to get the convinience features - with COSA you can earn them through playing as well. All players already owning ASTEROID FIGHT will get enough INVENTORY SLOTS for their arsenal as well as PRESET SLOTS.
• performance improvements
• better match making, so ASTEROID FIGHT is ready for a bigger amount of players
• UI improvements
• player skins
• new special abilities
• an exclusive ingame soundtrack made by Matteo Schiavinato

• We are giving a discount of 90% on ASTEROID FIGHT! Starting right now, ASTEROID FIGHT will be available for only 1,19$!
• All new players purchasing the game before the switch to F2P will get REFINED MINERALS worth 4$!

Today we release a new special ability item: the RESOURCE LINK! -> Connected asteroids & share their ressources instantly. This item really changes the gameplay possibilities. It's a "builder-item" that lets you focus on setting up your production as fast as possible. Dont't forget to pick this one up together with your "Zelos Ray"!

In celebration of the launch, a special time-limited dark skin for the Scout will be available in-game! This hull skin will only be available during the first week - so make sure to grab it before it’s too late!
With the EA release today we are moving to version 0.9.28. These are the news and updates we want to share with you alongside this important step for ASTEROID FIGHT:
Servers are up and running! Servers in the USA, Europe, Asia and Russia are ready for you!

Every map demands another strategy and has a unique emphasis on one of the game mechanics:

• The ARENA

  
  3 lanes, 3 energy nodes. The center of the map is a constantly contested spot. This is the classic map with lots of asteroids and strategic possibilities. Thin passages from the center to the outer regions only let through small units.

• The CANYON

  
  One lane, where you build up pressure while you’re pushing the front more and more to your opponent! The map reminds of tower defense. Warp highly recommended! :)

• The CHAMBERS

  
  4 x 4 + 1 center chamber = 17 chambers that you can occupy. The master of the chambers will dominate the map! Tic Tac Toe with asteroids!

• The VESTIBULE

  
  Fast-paced, open map for in between matches. Don’t blink or you might lose this one! ;)

• The SCOUT

  
  Medium agile and medium strong commander. Good allrounder!

• The EXPLORER

  
  Very fast and agile - but weak - ship!

• The HEAVY

  
  Slow, but strong unit with additional energy!

• Cloak

  
  Make yourself invisible for a limited amount of time.

• EMP

  
  The EMP stuns units in its range.

• Homing Missile

  
  Strong, controllable missile.

• Proximity Mine

  
  The proximity mine will detect and explode (with a short delay) when enemies come into the detection range.

• Railgun

  
  Highly energized rail beam that damages all units in the beam.

• Repair Droid

  
  Repairs your ship on activation.

• Time Bender

  
  Bends the time so affected entities in the effect radius will experience a distorted time. Depending on the item values, the time bender will slow down or speed up the time.

• Utility Fog

  
  Small nanobots that repair your ship and ships in your surrounding.

• Warp

  
  Instant warp the hero to another position.

• Zelos Rays

  
  Improves worker efficiency by +20% (lvl0) in your surrounding.

• Mod

  
  Modifies different values of your ship.

• Plasma Cannon

  
  Highly energized particles to heat up your enemies.

• Rockets

  
  Six deadly rockets are launched per batch.

• … a lot more to come during EA!!
