[p]A new update for Battle for Asciion is now available.[/p][p]Version 1.305 introduces new audio customization options, a visual terminal-style overlay for widescreen displays, the addition of the fourth ship from the community design contest, and several fixes and tweaks across the game.[/p][p][/p][h3]Audio Mixing Options[/h3][p]Many players asked for more control over the game's sound mix, especially after the addition of autofire, which naturally increases the frequency of shooting sounds.[/p][p]We've listened to that feedback.
You can now adjust BGM and SFX volumes independently from the PAUSE/OPTIONS menu.[/p][p]This allows players to better balance the sound effects with the music and enjoy the excellent chiptune soundtrack composed by WYZ in a way that suits their preferences.[/p][p][/p][h3]Optional Terminal Overlay[/h3][p]As many old-school players know, most classic games were designed for 4:3 displays, which means modern widescreen monitors often leave empty space on the sides.[/p][p]To address this, we've added an optional terminal-style overlay that decorates the edges of the screen and recreates the look of an old computer terminal.[/p][p]This feature can be enabled from the PAUSE/OPTIONS menu.
By default, it is disabled.[/p][p][/p][h3]The 4th Ship Has Arrived[/h3][p]The Community Ship Design Contest has concluded, and the winning design has now been added to the game.[/p][p]Players can now choose between four different battle ships from the ship selection screen.[/p][p]Thank you to everyone who participated and shared their designs.[/p][p]You can see the full contest thread and results here:
