Ion Fury 1.02 Update is out! 10% Discount!
Finally! Yes it took some time, but we're FINALLY ready with the eagerly awaited 1.02 update for Ion Fury.
You read that right. Not 1.01, but 1.02! We jam packed so many goodies into this patch (Achievements everyone!), that patch 1.01 (Boxed copies), simply wasn't enough for this release.
Alongside the Patch, we're also doing a SALE of Ion Fury on 10%!
So if you didn't manage to grab the game at launch, NOW is the time!
Last but not least, here's a big change-log for you all to dive into.
Enjoy!
v1.02 changelog
New/changed:
- Steam achievements are here! When you launch version 1.02, saved gameplay stats from version 1.0 will be evaluated and any achievement already completed will be unlocked automatically.

- Added flight sound for homing missiles fired from enemies
- Added extra sound effects for flying skull drones
- Decreased max medkit carry amount
- Large medkit now only gives +20 HP on Maximum Fury skill

- Fixed possible crash or degraded performance after shooting mirrors repeatedly
- Fixed degraded performance after firing thousands of shots in a single map
- Fixed counting enemy deaths from the environment that could prevent reaching 100% kills

- Fixed being able to activate radar on the stats screen at the end of a zone
- Fixed the weapon display sometimes getting "stuck" when opening grates with the use key

- Fixed grenadier enemies being invulnerable to burning damage
- Fixed player sometimes dying after the end credits
- Fixed various possible progression blockers and unintended environmental deaths throughout the game
- Fixed a few secret areas that either didn't trigger properly or could trigger more than once
- Fixed maps sometimes getting their states reset when backtracking in zones 5 and 6
- Fixed end screen transition after final boss
- Fixed far away explosion sounds sometimes being too quiet
- Fixed weapon reload animation canceling
- Fixed linked up "HeskelCast" screens sometimes going out of sync from one another
- Fixed Bowling Bomb pickup always switching away from the Electrifryer, even if automatic switching was disabled
- Fixed audio clipping when killing many sections of a centipede enemy at once
- Fixed other misc map issues: texture misalignments, effect glitches, etc

Ion Fury Big Box News!
First, the good news - The Founders Edition boxes are currently being shipped to two distribution warehouses (one in the US, and one in EU), from where each copy will be sent out. Another few weeks and hopefully you'll have a juicy Founders Edition in your hands. You'll get an email notification once your copy has shipped from the distribution warehouse!
Second, less good news - The custom-designed Bowling Bomb USB drive for the Regular Edition Box, has been delayed a few weeks, The mold is complete (It looks kickass!), but due to production difficulties which have now been resolved, it's unfortunately been delayed.
All other items are packed. Latest news from the manufacturer is that the disks will be shipped to us within 4 weeks.
We will keep you guys updated once we have more news to share!
