The Excavation Update: Part 1 | Patch #19
[p]Hi all,[/p][p][/p][p]This update commences part 1 of the final expansion to Rocky Mayhem, Excavation. This update also involves Prestige Badges for some personalization to your player card, a tutorial revamp and more. [/p][p][/p][h2]Excavation[/h2][p]In Excavation, you can extract materials from asteroids to make money. Each asteroid has it's own pros and cons from the others, and you can choose which ones you'd like to mine, without paying a dime. Of course, there's no guarantee on what you'll get from it, with it being nothing or even a couple hundred dollars! And depending on the toughness of the asteroid, one may take longer to mine than the others. You'll also be able to spend hard-earned cash on buying a drillship to accelerate the excavation process by double, and unlocking this will be permanent for your account. [/p][p][/p][p]Currently part one allows you to excavate 2 different asteroids, basic and volcanic. Part two will feature more asteroid options, more chances to gain money from all excavations, and balances. I plan for Patch #20 to feature these, as well as to be the final major update for Rocky Mayhem. [/p][p][/p][p]![]()
[/p][p][/p][h3]Prestige Badges[/h3][p]Depending on your prestige level, you will now have a new fancy badge under your username on the player card, replacing the ugly "P1" that would sit next to your name. [/p][p][/p][h3]Limited Time Cosmetics (LTC)[/h3][p]In the customisation section at the bottom, there will now be a skin that changes every now and then. Each skin that shows up here will feature cosmetics never seen before, and will be removed from the game when the next one shows up. This isn't really anything major as I am aware the player base is non-existent, so this will be more of just a hobby for me as I love creating different combinations! Every-time a new skin is put in place of another, a small announcement will be made. These skins may or may not return permanently if I see a reason to do so. [/p][p][/p][h3]Tutorial[/h3][p]"How to Play" has received a visual change and a name change. While it'll still list all the details of each mode and what to do, you can now view all abilities and the details of what each one does with the icon displayed next to it. I hope this will make it clearer to new players on how to use the abilities effectively. Here's what it looks like now.[/p][p][/p][p]![]()
