Void Scrappers News

A new pilot has been spotted! The new pilot will be released soon, but is already available on the experimental branch. An announcement will be made when the pilot is live for everyone.

Note: If you fulfill the unlock requirements for the new character, you will still need to finish a run to trigger the unlock.

We've also implemented a new weapon, which is included in this build as well.

Feedback and bug reports are welcome!

Note: Testing the experimental branch will make your save file incompatible with the default branch, so it is recommended you back up your save file before testing.

it is also advised that you switch back to the default branch when you are done testing, as new unstable builds can be uploaded to the experimental branch without prior notice.

You can now buy multiple permanent upgrades at once by holding left shift or L-trigger on a gamepad. This is unofficial functionality.

Added support for gamepad 8BitDo SN30+pro on Mac.

This build also includes the weapon controller system overhaul. This should mean the following benefits:

Weapon icons in the bottom left of the game UI should no longer disappear and reappear at random

The icons should always remain in the same order

Weapon cooldowns should be more predictable
