Hey there Space Engineers! This update is a major one! Here are some features of this update:

• New Endless Mode! After what seemed like eons, we've finally added Revy's ship as one of the arenas for Endless Mode.
• New languages! Now you can play Spacejacked in German, Korean, Simplified Chinese and Russian.
• Major bugfix: Steam Cloud saves didn't work properly when syncing on a different computer. Now they do.

Thanks for sticking around and playing Spacejacked! P.S. Spacejacked is also now available for PS4! Team Rotten Mage is blasting off again!

Hello everyone! It's been a while =) Here's announcing some tweaks and feature addition we've made to Spacejacked. For our most hardcore players, please give us more time before we finish the additional content (thanks!)

Balancing Tweaks to Story Mode

We have spent much time observing the community play the game and found some players to have huge problems getting past the first act of the game. After much consideration, we believe we've identified the problem - the game too heavily penalizes early game mistakes, and damages to any 3 cores requires Metal for repair. Consequently, some players may find themselves in a near-impossible state late into Act 1, prompting some to restart the game from a much earlier day, or worse, give up. To solve this issue, we've introduced an auto-repairing droid that'll, on a "daily" basis, fixes each core a tiny bit, thereby allowing some players to a chance to slowly recover from early game mistakes. It should be noted that the auto-repair droids are exclusive to the first act. Here's a look at them little droids!

Easy Mode

For the players who want a more leisurely pace, consider switching to Easy Mode in-game. Easy Mode is accessible via the pause menu in Gameplay Options. Be careful though, Easy Mode still isn't a cake walk ;)

Shout-out to Beatbox!

Here's to our most hardcore player! A huge thank you! We've added your Alias in our credits screen in honor of your contribution. If you want us to include your real name instead, please contact us at contact@rottenmage.com. Thanks!!

Hi all! We've added 3 new challenges to the Challenge Mode. If you've already completed the Story Mode, all 3 of the new challenges will be automatically unlocked upon booting up the game.
Here are the 3 new challenges:

• Jellyfish Battle
• Utter Chaos
• Mission Impossible (huge thanks to Beatbox for the contribution)

Warning: They are very tough ;) New Game+ is still in the works, we're about halfway there - so please stay tuned for future updates!

Greetings! Even though we're still working on additional features and updates at the moment, there have been a couple of smaller fixes that we feel are worth making live. Increased Focus Laser Attack Radius Before:
After:
Added Quick-start functionality
This minor addition allows player to skip the countdown before a wave - especially handy in Challenge Mode. By default, you can hold the TAB key (or the RB button on the gamepad) to skip the countdown before a wave. What's next? We're working on an alternative play-style option for players who want to have more time to plan and tweak their turret layout before a wave. As for players who are happy with the standard hectic nature of Spacejacked, we are also working on a New Game+. It will take a little longer though, because we're planning to add new enemies for this mode. To everyone who have played and enjoyed Spacejacked, we thank you deeply! If you can spare a few minutes, why not leave a review =)? It will really help us immensely! Once again, thank you and stay tuned for the next update!

Hello everybody! We've just made a minor usability tweak to the game. Players can now load their game from Day 1 instead of having to exit to menu to start a new game, if they want to do so. Watch this space for more updates!
