Rockjack v0.4.1 is now live!
[olist] Powerup spawn logic was overhauled so that the player will see fewer powerups which they can't immediately use.
Added the PowerShot powerup. This will give your shots additional momentum, which will allow you to push back some of those tougher enemies more easily.
Reduced the damage multipliers per skill level.
Enemy sounds are more clearly doppler-shifted, so if you listen carefully you can tell whether they are moving toward you or away from you.
Side-swipe collisions will now be less damaging to the player.
Picking up a cow gives the player a $1000 bonus.
Overhauled the asteroid allocation logic to stretch the late game.
Reduced the multipliers for the thrust augmenter and the fast reaction wheel.
Added Recovered Resources View on the main screen.
Added currency symbol selection to the Options screen.
Improved visibility of diamond asteroids.
Fix some meter display bugs.
Animate the HUD display of shield strength.

ROCKJACK is a new space shooter inspired by the classic ASTEROIDS from 1979, as well as other games in the genre, all given a modern refresh. Fast, fluid, immersive gameplay is our primary goal in creating ROCKJACK!
You're a gig worker in the distant future, scrounging a living as best you can on the interstellar frontier. Short on funds, you've decided to become a ROCKJACK - and signed a contract with the GOX CORPORATION to venture out into the asteroid fields of deep space to mine for valuable resources! Your job will be to harvest those rocks and not get killed in the process. Ancient seeker mines and alien marauders haunt the asteroids and will try to stop you! And if the asteroids don't crush you, or the aliens vaporize you, the interest payments might bury you anyway...
