We're beyond thrilled at the reception of our pixel art fever dream of a game. Please consider nominating us for Outstanding Visual Style at this year's 2020 Steam Awards. Between the over 500 frames of hand drawn animation for each of our heroes and villains, the painstakingly handcrafted maps for each of our unique planets, and last but not least, the hours of technical wizardry evoked to make that unique 2DX look of our art, we truly feel we have a shot at this accolade, especially with YOUR help! Thank you for your support and enthusiasm. We have big plans for Star Renegades, and we're thrilled you're with us for this ride!

Renegades! We're super excited to give you our first major content update! This update unleashes new challenges in the way of Entropy difficulty levels, tracks your run's stats and calculates a score, presents a new renegade called the Dragoon whom you'll have to rescue to unlock, and as always, contains a host of quality of life and balance changes.

This is just the first of many major content updates and if you like this, you'll LOVE what we've got cooking for the upcoming winter holiday update! ːJ5T1Nː

[h2]Improvements & Fixes[/h2]
• New Renegade: The Dragoon - his last known location was on Dagan in a Warmonger factory. Track him down and rescue him to recruit him to our cause.
• 5 New Entropy Levels - Entropy Levels are incremental difficulty levels beyond Extreme meant to raise the difficulty with increasingly challenging mechanics
• New scorecard - tracks your stats and provides a score at the end of your run. You'll also be able to view scorecards from previous runs from the Main Menu (only available on new missions started on 1.1)
• Achievements for beating Extreme and the Entropy difficulty levels
• Faction dungeons are now opened after defeating the faction enemy on the map
• Renegade flurry attacks that target random enemies no longer show any damage in the prediction
• Fixed bug with combos showing different damage prediction based on who was selecting the attack
• Health, Shield, Armor steal attacks now steal armor even if the attacker has full health, shields, or armor
• New option to toggle auto-run in the overworld
• New option for fast camping animations
• New option to suppress all renegade and adversary overworld idle banter
• New options to disable dynamic shadows and post-processing effects for better performance
• Level up animation sequence is now skippable
• Fixed bug with combos that kill an adversary not granting a Dynamic Duo reward

[h2]Balance[/h2]

• Aegis, Empath, and Marksman now have decreased DNA levelling requirements
• Valkyrie, Enforcer, Commando, Juggernaut, and Spectre now have increased DNA levelling requirements

• Enforcer's Circular Reasoning card's Affection gain reduced to 3

• Buffed Machinist and Warhound to have more health, armor, shields, and damage
• Fixed bug with Vash Kalthoris' Blitz II not being instant
• Bleeding no longer stacks with lesser levels of itself
