Delay on 0.2.0 Update

Dear pilots! Version 0.2.0 is coming soon! Lately we have been extremely busy. We had to think about a lot of things for the rest of the game while working on the feedback from the players - that's why this update will arrive late. So here is the list of the improvements of this patch (currently planned) :

Controller integration : It is now possible to navigate in the menus with the controller!
New server : It was about time! A US server will be deployed, with more smoothness and less lag for North American players.
Server choice: We decided that it was better to let the players choose the server on which they play - you will be able to change the server on the selection screen.
MacOS is now supported.

Bug hunting season is always open (your feedback really helps us) :

English translation corrected
Pilot powers (shield recharging)

What we are Currently working on (it won't necessarily be in this next version, though) :

Preparation of the ranked mode, design of the environment and rewards, management of the matchmaking via player classification.
Adding a single-player campaign mode. We can't say more right now were taking inspiration from things we like in other games ;)
Redesign of the ships, laser cutting ! We'd like to add the possibility to create your own ship by combining different parts in unique combinations. It's all up to you!
Modification of the hangar screen, we'll have to change everything to turn it into a real workshop!
Complete redesign of all screens and menus, as we didn't think it was intuitive / user-friendly enough.

Thanks for your support and see you soon in the arena.

Choose your pilot:

In Pongarena you are free to choose your pilot, each of them has unique talents and will influence the way you play.
Some pilots are a better match with some ships, create your own combinations to outmatch your opponents.

Your ship, your rules:

Do you prefer a fast and aggressive gamestyle? Or you tend to be more defensive?
Or maybe, you prefer to use all the available power to crush your opponent?

Each ship has a different gameplay, and between each extremes you will find more balanced ones for those who want to be careful.

Overclock your ship:

You found your favorite but it has some weaknesses? Or you want to make a specific thing stronger?
Use chipsets to boost a specific statistic of your ship, you can use up to 3 different chipsets at the same time to get your secret sauce.

Musical universe

All the game is rythmed by the original creations of LukHash.
He defines his music as a “fusion of the numeric 8 bits sounds combined to a sophisticated electronic music, with modern sounds, and an aesthetic from the 80’s”.
Discover one of his last album “Better Than Reality” in Pongarena.
