  • Added new save and load feature. Each 10th level the game saves all the progress. This feature is active only in singleplayer game mode.
    Back to the roots...
  • We have disabled the procedural island system. We think that this feature was not as good as we expected. We decided to focus on gameplay and fun part of the game for now.

  • Players can build turrets on drones now. Drones are temporary support AI and will dissapear after a while. The lifetime of the drones are increased from 5 minutes to 10 minutes.
