Asterogues News

Hi all, this is a small patch aimed at fixing some bugs mainly. There are also two new minibosses that can be found in the early areas to try out.

Additions:
2 new minibosses!
Braniac now has custom items (that can also be found at the Fortune teller)

Balance:
Orion can no longer find Toxic Bullet, since it was so terrible on him.

Fixes:

• Multiplayer- should now be back up and running!
  
• Fortune Teller- fixed a bug in this room where Braniac and rerolling would softlock the game
  
• Fixed a bug where chests could softlock or offer empty slots later in the run
  
  
• Keys should now properly discount in the HP shop, reducing the cost by 1 HP
  
• Laika's shop dialogue now properly offers all 3 options (reroll, key, quit)
  
• Rerolling in the shop now uses a ticket if it is in your inventory
  
• Shop tickets now allow items to spawn of any tier (was causing a bug where the shop level was too high to offer items of the ticket type)
  
• Fixed bug where the Earth's moon would glow and get giant
  
  
• Casual mode- should now retain all newer items added in the last patch between deaths.
  
• Casual mode- keys and rerolls now are retained between deaths.
  
  
• Some enemies that weren't triggering on-hit effects, like the Armoured runts, will now do so properly.
  
  
• In ultra-widescreen, fixed the background not stretching the full length of the screen

Hi everyone- there’s a new update dropping right now!
Here’s a breakdown of what’s in the new update:

-New playable character Orion!
-New world- the Moon Base!
6 new room types to play with, and new expansions to shops!
Keys are a new mechanic that'll switch up how you play your run!

Difficulty- the game was frankly too hard, and has been rebalanced- a hard version of the game is still available with the hard mode toggle!

Runs improved- The worlds are shorter, and runs now include every world, so you can fight all of the planets in one run- or, you can take a detour!

Enemies- A rework of how enemies spawn, making things both easier and more fun. New enemies now available in various zones, and a new planet boss!

Items- New active item charge system that works off damage as well as kills, so now items feel more involved for boss fights- plus active items can be held in the inventory and swapped between! A rework of ice and poison to make them into fun item routes! A few new items, with another item drop around the corner!

General overall polish with ui, music, and cutscenes! Various bugfixes, improvements to different resolutions and hopefully performance!

Thanks everyone for your feedback over the past few months since EA dropped. I think the game has grown a million times better than it would have if I had worked privately up until full release- and I still have a lot more to add before the game is finished. As always, please share your feedback with me on Discord!
I hope you enjoy this new version of Asterogues!
