Incoming Upgrade Update (v0.6.0)

[p]The next update will be on November 27th and will completely replace the current upgrade system in-game. Full details of these changes are actively being discussed in Discord. If you wish to get earlier access to this in the test branch, you'll need to drop me a DM.[/p][p]The aim of this rework is primarily to remove the requirement that players have to unlock weapons to use them. In addition to this, it should vastly reduce the restrictions on specific playstyles and make tanking builds far more viable.[/p][p][/p][p]Although there are level restrictions on these upgrades (from left to right), this is simply to stop new players from being overwhelmed by the amount of upgrades. Once level requirements are met, you can move points about freely and spend points in any of the first 6 upgrades in each class.[/p][p]Once you have put 20 points into a primary class or 10 points into a secondary class, you unlock the final class ability (on the right) for free. These class abilities include additional slots, a second Utility Slot, a new (bigger) Dreadnought ship class and much more.[/p][p]Some of the upgrades that have been moved have been increased in power to make them more meaningful, and although I'm still balancing these changes, it's already feeling like an improvement.[/p][p][/p][h3]Sector 4[/h3][p]This next update will be the final rework before more content, so after that (and likely all through Christmas). I'll be building the content for the final sector. This is obviously a huge job, and as it will conclude the story element of the game, I want to make sure I get it right. Once that is all in place, I'll be working on my endgame systems for infinite farming and progression.[/p][p][/p][h3]Echoes of the Void Bundle[/h3][p]Sometimes I just run into a game I really like during Next Fest. Void Miner is one of those. I've completed the demo twice, and I'm still enjoying the full game, so I've thrown up a bundle with them. It's very fun and I would highly recommend checking it out.[/p][p][/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p]
