Asteroids ++ News

• Removed twitter from socials
  
• Updated laser description
  

(Note, I am aware that item icons are not visible on steam inventory, it's a server problem and will be fixed without an update very soon)

Previously when trying to unlock DLCs, you could by either buying planets from the marketplace, or waiting for drops, but now I am adding another option and that is straight from the steam store! So...

I am planning to release the following DLCs on steam:

• Asteroids ++ | Pluto (0.99e)
• Asteroids ++ | Proxima Centauri (3.99e)
• Asteroids ++ | The Sun (0.99e)
• Asteroids ++ | Red Moons (1.99e)
• Asteroids ++ | Kepler-90 (7.99e)

(There will be store pages for each)



Now these DLCs are the campaigns that already exist in the game, however buying these will immediately unlock them without the need to complete something or to own a planet (or set of planets) in your steam inventory. Even a download is not required, so all DLCs just get unlocked! A campaign would be unlocked with a purchase as an additional option.

For each DLC bought, users would get a gift based on a purchase (much like if you bought TCC or soundtracks), similar to the Donation Gift, but may be better depending on which DLC is bought.

There would be a bundle called 'Asteroids ++ | Super Edition' (working on the name) which includes all DLCs at a 25% discount (so currently at 11.99e), and this bundle will include all current and future DLCs!

And finally, all of the DLCs will receive discounts from time to time, unlike planets, there will be rotating discounts each month so be on the lookout! These discounts affect the bundle pricing as well.

[h3]But I already own some of the campaigns![/h3]

If you already have the campaigns unlocked, they will stay unlocked and everything is free if you own planets! I am not removing access to anybody and never will, forever! After all it is your choice if you want to buy these DLCs! (and I would appreciate it because it really does help me a ton!) And you can still unlock them for free (because time is money)

Expect these additions somewhere in February! If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Have fun!

[h3]Oh and also[/h3]



Thank you so much for over 100 reviews! It means a world to me that I can prove that this is the best Asteroids game yet! Totally not a biased claim. But you guys are awesome! While I know there are features/bugs that need to be addressed, you guys seem to really enjoy the game and I am very happy about it! Keep going with your love and support!

They are tied to the normal planet drops, except they are 1% chance for a drop, and you can't purchase them from the Asteroids ++ Store, making them much harder to obtain! You get them normally by playing the game, but once the 3rd drop of planets are over, these will be impossible to obtain through normal means. Good Luck!

Added... something???

• Added the ability to shoot with left click, right click to activate ability, and zoom out and zoom in with mouse scroll WITHOUT 'mouse controls' enabled (thanks Zaxtor99® TTV)
  
• Improved loading times when starting the game
  
• Skill tree discounts will apply the moment you start the game
  
• Removed the 'language tool' from the game's folder to reduce file size
  
• Improved weapon items in the steam inventory to include weapon levels
  

(still needs a bit of work, but you don't have to click on items to see their level anymore)
