New Test Build Update
Today’s game development news are mostly associated with extension to the first mission. Your first objective now is to destroy energy generators in a space station. The station is hidden inside an asteroid. After the destruction of the generators, you have to run away quickly, since the whole station will explode! Sector for the first mission also now contains new mother ship.
New or updated features:
- HUD notifications for damage, incoming enemy, solar flare, low fuel.
- New faction-specific prefabs for Russia, China and Fourth Reich.
- Prefab and missile explosions now damage all objects nearby (area damage).
- New server code – you need to connect to our server only when loading a mission or checkpoint or saving/loading your sector in the editor – other than that, you can stay offline.
- Many optimizations, minor improvements and fixes.
