Hello!

The new Aylon Cruiser is now available to unlock and play.
A new mechanic and cards are also introduced:



The new Boost mechanic allows you to stack Boost points to use it later.
Boost points only last until the end of the combat or until you use them via a card mechanic.

Since there are only 4 cards using these mechanics, some changes might be coming to existing cards to allow for more mechanic interactions.

Along with small bug fixes, the Ion Storm environment effect is coming next week.


Thank you everyone and stay safe.

A new big content update is coming and small updates will be dropping every week until the end of the month.

First there will be a new player ship selection screen, where you can see a brief description of the ship, deck composition and base stats:



This is the abbreviated list of new content coming in the Gravitas update:

• Achlys is the 6th system you can visit, but you will need to find the hidden warp gate to get there...
  
• New ship, the Aylon Cruiser, coming next week.
  
• Environment hazards: Nebulas, Ion Storms and Asteroid Fields.
  
• New enemies, a new boss and more cards and equipment
  

Don't expect all the new content to drop this week, as the new ship will be coming later next week, and the environment effects will also drop gradually in the next 3 weeks.

The Aylon Cruiser is the 4th playable ship but you will need to do some searching before you can unlock it.



The update will also bring fixes to some known issues.

For now expect the 6th system to be available later this week and the other new content slowly coming in the next few weeks.


Thank you and stay safe!

Hi!

The Rendezvous Update brings new encounters, UI improvements, new cards and equipment.
Other small content updates will also drop in the coming days.

[h3]New cards and mechanics[/h3]

The new Synergy mechanic allows you increase the card effects if you have another card in your hand with the same word in the title or synergy wording. It can also be applied to mechanic names or card rarity:


For example, if you have Plasma Affinity in your hand, the card itself will count as one 'Plasma' card in hand, but if you have another card with 'Plasma' in the name, it will also give the effect on number 2.

With 'uncommon synergy' it counts if you have any uncommon cards in hand and 'Ignite Synergy' applies to all cards with the Ignite mechanic in your hand.

Other new cards (some art is temporary):


With 'dual cards' you can choose which effect you want, so they become more versatile but not as powerful.

[h3]New encounters[/h3]


You can now encounter big space habitats, selling cards, equipment and also repair facilities, card scraping options and refueling.

The distress signal in the system map will also give new encounters and options.

The casino station is not yet available but it will be online in the next few days.



[h3]Card Changes:[/h3]

• Ammunition Spares now has a 'Scrap card' effect
  
• New cards (shown above)
  
• New Equipment cards: Ram Upgrade, Emergency Charger
  

[h3]Gameplay Changes:[/h3]

• Hardcore Mode (will probably be balanced a lot in the coming weeks)
  
• You can now repair 10HP or more in the space stations
  
• New encounters: Space Habitat, Space Wreck, Crate 'Radar Scan' result
  
• If you run out of fuel, you will lose 30% of your credits in exchange for 5 fuel
  
• You can only find one Temple Ruins per system
  

[h3]Other bug fixes and improvements:[/h3]

• SFX system during combat has been improved. Let us know if you are still have sound issues or performance related issues.
  
• New Music Tracks!
  
• New UI for the equipment tab
  
• 'AI Supremacy' card sound issue
  
• Fixed an issue with the ship moving in the map while you are still in other encounter window.
  
• Other minor issues
  

I will keep adding new content in the coming days since they need a bit more testing.

Thank you!
