WIP: 0.8.0 New Energy Launcher Parts



Hello everyone! We're back with another small update this week, it's like we're doing this alternating between something to talk about and something small every time aren't we? Nonetheless, today's a showcase of the new energy launcher parts coming in the 0.8.0 update. We hope you'll like how they look, and see you again next week!

WIP: New Energy Launcher PHOTON



Hello! We had a short and small update last week so this week's a bigger one! Here's to the showing of the last new energy launcher for the upcoming 0.8.0 patch, the Photon! There has been quite some speculation on how this energy launcher with a peculiar name will work, so speculate no further, we're here to shower you in its glory, or lasers... mostly lasers...



The PHOTON shoots extremely fast in a wide area ahead of the M.A.S.S. unit, blasting them with lasers no matter where they are in the area of effect. It's also an instant use and allows the M.A.S.S. unit to quickly continue moving, whether to retreat or move in and assault enemies caught in their firing array.



Here's a sideview of how fast the PHOTON shoots out their projectiles. They can only be used when you have full ammo though, so pad those EN Recharge stats if you want to use them continuously! That's all for this week, stay tuned for more, it's not much now until the 0.8.0 is ready for everyone to play with.

WIP: Profile data and other features update



So... you remembered when we mentioned we're working on the profiles and save data thing in the AMA? Well, we're almost finished with it, and we're ready to show them to you.



Here is a short clip of how it will work. Each save data will have its own profile and progression, and most importantly, each profile can save up to 32 m.a.s.s. units so if you're lacking in space, you can replay the game, relive the story, and get 32 more slots to create M.A.S.S. units.



Now, some of you might have had an accident of misnaming your PMC, or you just like to change it due to some head-canon. Fear not, the PMC name change system is here, for a cost of 100,000 credits. Hey! You're making Reina do some extreme paperwork here, pay up!



And finally, a feature to help you learn how you fare in M.A.S.S. Builder, or maybe use them to show off and compare progress with your friends, the mission records. These are data collected from the start of the game, separated by difficulties. It shows the times you've completed them, the fastest completion, times played, times failed, times restarted or abort, and in challenges, the waves you've completed as well.

We hope these features will satisfy some of your needs, we'll see you again next week.
