UPDATE FEATURES[/h2]
[h3]
🔹 Salvo for skyship cannons[/h3]
The cannons on the player's ships have been replaced by salvo fire; now, air battles look much brighter and tactically more exciting.
[h3]
🔹 Impulse Shield[/h3]
Reflects projectiles at the enemy.
[h3]
🔹 Ship's forward guns[/h3]
The ship now has separate forward guns.
[h3]
🔹 Reworked skyship boost[/h3]
The boost has a significant initial impact. It uses energy that replenishes automatically.
[h3]
🔹 New enemies[/h3]
[h3]
🔹 New enemy cruisers[/h3]
- Double Treat - equipped with a giant cannon;
- Allin - an impregnable flying fortress.
[h3]
🔹 Destructible armor on enemy ships[/h3]
Some enemy vessels are equipped with armor that can be destroyed gradually. Also, those vessels have weak spots: if you hit that spot, the enemy becomes more vulnerable.
[h3]
🔹 Improved enemy balance and AI[/h3]
In addition, they have updated behavior - aerial enemies now attack at proximity and interact in squads. New types of flying Swarms have also been added.
[h3]
🔹 Air currents[/h3]
Speed up map navigation or use the air currents in battles.
[h3]
🔹 Increased space between islands[/h3]
More space for air battles
[h3]
🔹 New music manager[/h3]
The music now depends on the environment and other conditions, such as the player's health. Also, the manager doesn't just switch tracks but turns the appropriate music layers on/off, which makes the music flow smoothly.
