Sky Break EA v4.2
A new mecha is now available: the bear mecha. It has two variants: head attack or blaster attack from the distance. It has a high level of shield and is hard to stun, but have a low life level. Its attack deals high damage. It can only be found in the ice island.
The tempest is now dynamic, and has an effect on mechas. A new indicator is visible next to the corner map, showing the tempest level. As time passes, the tempest gets stronger. After the first level, all mecha shields are reduced by one. After the second level, all mecha shields are reduced by two and the heavy fog prevents the use of any localization system. To calm the tempest, interact with a weather controller or use an air ionizer.
As we are taking some days off during the summer, we won't be able to work on the game and the next update will come a bit later than usually. We should release the EA v4.3 around August 23. Meanwhile, we wish you a nice summer! New features

Humanity is threatened. A deadly virus awoke, and it is spreading quickly.
The particular flora of Arcania, a planet used to prepare humans for space colonization, may help in the creation of a cure. But it is now abandoned since working mechas turned against humans.
A group of researchers is sent to this planet to find a solution. You are one of them.
But as you arrived, your spaceship crashed…
Your best chance of survival is to hack some of those mechas and use them as allies to defeat the others.
Your character can also improve its capabilities.
You will be able to activate old installations used to ionize the air and stop the tempest within an area. And thankfully an old station above the clouds, left over by humans, provides good shelter.
It is impossible to land within the tempest, but once you have unlocked some weather controllers, you will be able to travel quickly over the map and save a lot of time.
You can also decide to create a greenhouse directly inside your station if you want to grow and farm plants by yourself.
