Features:

Three new ships:

Shield, Sword and a Secret ship, unlockable at events or defeating a mothership.

New game mode, "Reputation Bets":

Join illegal gamblers who bet their Reputation points on uninterrupted jumps. The pilot have a huge amount of Scrap to equip the Ship and try to beat a target Reputation. Each time you try to hit the current Reputation, it increases. Be failing or succeeding. Every move counts, every defeated enemy is precious.
This game mode is only playable after defeating at least one mothership (on any difficulty). Everyone who has already defeated one has the unlocked mode.
The list of names of the gamblers is a collection of names of the best (real) players of the game! So if you posted a video or screenshot with your score there are great chances of your name being in there! :)

Easy, Normal and Hard difficulty modes:

In response to requests, there are now three different difficulties. Each of them changes mainly the amount of "energy" that the enemies have, in addition to some other minor details.
The "Hard" mode is only playable after defeating at least one mothership (on any difficulty). Everyone who has already defeated one has the unlocked mode.
New mechanic to amplify the "Failure Spectrum": If your ship gets hit by a 4 dmg blaster and have only 2 hull it will have the hull reduced to "0" instead of exploding. From "0" any damage will obviously blow it up.

Improved interface:

The ship's scanner has been completely reprogrammed and designed. Now it shows in an organized way all the elements present in the Tile, including the amount of Scrap and Energy! The Scanner can also be turned on and off just by clicking on its icon or using its current shortcut.
New DANGER indication: when you move the mouse on a Tile that has any element that damages the current ship (taking into account the different collision sizes) a Skull Symbol will flash. This works even with the Scanner disabled.

Many minor improvements and bugs have been fixed. If you encounter any problems please report on the forums. I hope you enjoy all the hard work I put into this update! :D

NEXT JUMP: Shmup Tactics LINUX [142.33 M]

NEXT JUMP is a love letter to shmup's [Shoot 'em up or space shooters], read in a slightly different manner: In turn-based battles!

Your mission, our mission, is very simple:
The dragons are fleeing with all our Elixir supply. Stop them!
We have an advantage: We are FASTER. Our engines are capable of doing "Juxtaposition Ultra Movement Positioning", or JUMPs, as we call it.
It will not be easy, as the Dragon drones can invade our Jumps, attacking us inside while traveling faster then light. These drones are predictable and always act by following pre-set patterns, but too many drones within the JUMP can be certain death!

It's a Tactics SHMUP!
A excellent Coffee break game.
Be a pilot of the Bastards Federation: A group formed by the Elves, Humans, Dwarves and Orcs who used to live in peace, sharing their love for all Beverages.
Your mission: JUMP! Chase the Dragons and stop them from running away with all that is most sacred to the Bastards by jumping from sector to sector, facing hordes of enemies in turn-based battles!
Each Sector is a Board! Each given “JUMP” represents a new combat board generated procedurally, simulating combat situations only seen in SHMUPs!
Pick from four playable Ships, all inspired by classic weapons: The Ballista, Dagger, Hammer and Staff.
Equip and Upgrade your ship with different weapons and accessories that change the combat dynamics!
Not only inspired by the classic Shmups and Bullet Hells, it’s also influenced by tactical games like Final Fantasy Tactics, Jeanne d’Arc and Roguelikes like FTL and Crypt of the NecroDancer.
Like the classic games of the past, it has a complete MANUAL, accessible within the game!
