Greetings to all you diligent AIs out there, welcome to Update 0.9.1!

This one has some Ear & Eyecandy, aswell as more bugfixes and because we love it so much, even more balancing!


We've also watched a lot of lovely streamers playing our game over the last week, which helped us to see the game more through your (A)eyes (Get it?... okay I'll stop already).

Using this feedback, we've implemented some small QoL stuff and added/rewrote some tooltips / info texts, that hopefully make the game a bit more approachable.

For example:

We've added a Copy & Paste function for the base building, so no more tedious building of the same production lines!

We've set the Railgun Tower to target "Highest current HP" by default now, as this is usually the role you would give it.

We've added a "close" button for the tutorial missions, so it now won't take up so much screen space, when you are doing a mission that's still far away from being completed.
(Looking at you "unlock outposts & fleet management" mission!)

There's still a lot more feedback that we took away from this and we try to implement it step by step over the next updates.


If you also want to give us your feedback, feel free to join our Discord or our Steam Discussions!



Alright, you'll probably know by now how these updates are structured. Let's get into it:

Features


Level 6 now also got a small cosmetic update:

Before

After


Full Feature List of this update
  • Copy and Paste function for the base building.
  • New ground graphics for level 6 (Purtauri).
  • Added more quests.
  • Added a "close" button to the tutorial. This will hide the tutorial tasks on the left, aswell as any connected tutorial arrows for the current task. After hiding, an Icon will show up in the lower left, where you can show the tutorial again.
  • Polished the recipe modification UI a little bit and rewrote the "How to" section, in hopes that this makes it easier to understand what's happening on the modification screen.
  • The Railguntower now targets "Highest current HP" by default.


Balancing



We did another round of nerfs for level 6 (Purtauri) as you needed to grind around ~200+ Skillpoints to get this done with a normal beacon, which was way too much and frustrating.
Together with some equipment rebalancing and buffs, it should now be beatable with some minor preperation.

Please note that we've also changed ingot recipes: All Ingots except Iron and Copper now require coal!
To make up for it, the dropchance and amount of coal was slightly increased across all enemies and levels.

Quests

  • Aluminium and Steel Quests now also reward 2 Skillpoints each
  • Increased automated Steel needed from 25 to 50
