Waves of Steel v0.34 release notes

This release adds two new missions. The first is a standard story mission and takes place after "Hunter, Hunted". The second is a bonus Halloween mission, and must be unlocked by first beating "Quetzalcoatl". If you've already beaten that mission, you'll need to re-complete it (using the "Win Mission" assist counts). Feedback on both missions is welcome! Gameplay:

  • New ships: Admiral Hipper, King George V, Novgorod, Town, Bismarck
  • New weapons: tethered mines, fireworks launcher
  • Two new chibi decals, of Quinn and Sidra
  • Added a new ship system, related to the Halloween content
  • Several new achievements
  • Several new portraits of the cast
  • Point-defense weapons now attempt to spread out their fire across all nearby targets, instead of all focusing on the closest target
  • If you attempt to fire and none of your guns are able to fire, then you'll get a brief text flash to tell you why: out of range, out of ammo, or dead angle
  • Weapons that do not require lock-on to fire will now position their reticles over the target; this means that their reload status is easier to determine
  • Add some VFX to the dodge special
  • The camera now avoids clipping through terrain
  • Air-deployed torpedoes aren't quite as huge as they used to be; plane torpedoes and rockets deal less damage
  • Reduced cooldown on engine overdrive specials
  • Tweaked the appearance of mission targets on the radar
  • When ships spawn into the mission, they will flash on the radar for a few seconds Bugfixes:
  • Hopefully fix a bug where the player would be unable to target ships that were deployed by a Super Typhoon (for example, in the mission "Lost Sheep"). If you encounter this bug again, please send feedback using F7 in-game!
  • The Deutschland cruiser has been demoted to tier 3, as was always intended
  • Fix a bug preventing the player from targeting targets that are positioned exactly at the middle of the map
  • Improved the behavior of homing projectiles; they should be less likely to hit the water directly in front of their targets
  • Fix the player still being able to target the submarine form of the Apotamkin after the battleship form has entered battle
  • Fix a bug preventing some mid-combat weapon config changes from being picked up
  • Fix a bug preventing the weapon config UI from reliably coming up mid-combat
  • The weapon config UI sorts weapons by what group they're in
  • The description of the crane part now notes that cranes do not stack
  • Fixed some rendering issues with projectiles that use trail effects, especially the Heavy Light laser and railgun
  • Improved performance of missions with lots of shore guns in them
  • Fix a couple of stray black lines in the German flag
  • Fix point-defense weapons going at the bottom of the weapons menu in the ship designer
  • Fix some bad portraits in the tutorial mission
  • Fix some issues with anti-projectile point defense weapons not working

  • Across the globe, tyrants are seizing power! Their innumerable military forces seem impossible to stop, rolling across all organized resistance like a wave of steel. But their reach is not quite limitless. In the seas and oceans of the world, resistance holds strong...for now. Take command of one of the few remaining free warships. Resist, liberate, and stay ahead of the enemy's grasp to find the source of their power...

    Waves of Steel is a fast and accessible naval combat simulator. Your lone ship will need to take on hundreds of enemy ships, planes, and submarines across the single-player campaign, and even colossal superweapons! A flying battleship, and a gun made out of a volcano, you never know what awaits you in Waves of Steel!

    Between missions, use the parts you've scavenged to customize your vessel in a flexible but straightforward ship designer. After all, you'll need all the firepower you can get to take on the next threat!

    Features:
    • Extensive singleplayer campaign split into small pick-up-and-play missions.
    • Powerful ship designer that allows you to freely place parts on your ship's deck, along with customizable flags, paint jobs, and decals. Build your own destroyer, cruiser, or battleship!
    • Dozens of playable ships based on historical designs.
    • Hundreds of ship parts with distinct artwork and capabilities. Use naval artillery, anti-aircraft guns, missile launchers, and even more advanced weaponry - like railguns and lasers - to take down the enemy!
    • Story-motivated missions with a small cast of heroes and villains. Circumnavigate the globe in your fight against tyranny!

    Accessibility:
    • Rebindable controls
    • Adjustable volume for music, ambient sounds, and other sounds
    • Adjustable game speed from 10% to 200%
    • No requirement for held buttons; weapon fire can be set to hold or toggle
    • Any weapon can be set to autofire, allowing the player to focus on sailing the ship
    • Customizable UI allows adjusting radar colors and transparency for ease of reading
    • Easily-accessed in-game assists such as invincibility, infinite ammo, and the ability to skip missions
