[h3]Features/Changes[/h3]

[h3]Fixes[/h3]
  • Updated engine to 2024.6.1, which hopefully fixes the issue where coins would repeatedly play sound (no idea how this started happening, it's likely the engine)

Asteroids ++ 1.1.4a

- Fixed weekly planet displaying negative time remaining
- Added "Highest Leveled Player" and "Most Credits Acquired" in global stats

Asteroids ++ 1.1.4 - SANDBOX MODE

This update brings quite a lot to the table, sandbox mode, new utility, changes to idle conquering and quality of life improvements!

[h3]Sandbox mode[/h3]
Spawn in and test out asteroids that you own in your inventory! This mode will be expanded to have an infinite combination of player loadouts in the future.



[h3]NEW UTILITY, Ship Spikes![/h3]
Ship spikes is an utility that deals damage to asteroids that you come in contact with. Each level improves it. Combine it with repair kit or shield for a promising result. With it comes a skill tree which will improve the utility if you have dash upgraded



[h3]IDLE CONQUERING CHANGE[/h3]
You can now idle conquer while having recruitments or clone in your loadout, which makes this a buff for both of the weapons since it is less limiting. I'm yet to test this since it could turn out to be too good.

[h3]Other[/h3]
  • Changed a lot of player code which brings more stability, but it could cause unexpected crashes so if you get any, let me know
  • Removed unused songs + changed some sounds (like the grade up sound) to be stereo
  • Fixed crash with the mothership and orange asteroids where they could spawn a bullet trying to target a non-existing player
  • Updated utility graphics for the accuracy, health and magnet.
  • Removed unused code
  • Small changes to the store page of the game
  • Added 'Weekly Planet' as an option in the Asteroids ++ Store
  • Added new recruitment names
