For the Warp
For The Warp is 5 years old!
To celebrate our anniversary we started yesterday with an 80% off discount.
We just added a new branch called 'console-version' that features the... console version of the game!
Yes, the console version is a distinct version but we decided to include it here mostly because of the better gamepad support, but lacking some of the features of the steam version.
Just a disclaimer if you plan to play it:
- Better gamepad support
- Runs better on older or slower hardware
- Save games and progression is different from the main game, you won't lose your previous saves if you go back to the 'regular' version.
- Does not have Steam achievements (we might fix this later)
- No 'Warpopedia'
- Does not have the new ship from the latest update
- Some minor differences in balance/difficulty
To play this version:
Right click the game in the library > Properties > Betas > Beta Participation (drop down) > select 'console-version'
Also, people recently asked for more translation options.
We did have some old incomplete translations to Portuguese, Russian and other languages that never were officially released.
The plan is to fully translate them and make it available in the coming months.
Thank you for your support!
Surprise Update: A New Ship!
We just added a new ship with this surprise update!
The Arcane ship makes more use of the boost mechanic to unleash a powerful black hole onto your foes.
The ship is also unlocked by default so you can try it whenever you want.
Some other things regarding this update and future updates:
- This update will only be available on PC and arrive later on consoles.
- Full gamepad support and other improvements will arrive in a future update, since we will bring the console gamepad support to the PC.
- There are no more planned updates after these ones
- But we might just keep adding new stuff just because...
Thank you everyone for the support!
Patch 1.1.5
In this patch I bring back the simplified Chinese translation option and fixed some previous issues.
Let me know if you have any problem in the steam forums.
- Simplified Chinese version added
- Increased some gfx effects
- Minor stuff
Thank you!
Hotfix: Rolling back to previous version
Since last week several players had soft locks or crashes after the first boss fight or other parts.
This temporary rollback will fix these issues.
But the latest 'simplified chinese' translation option will only be available in the test branch.
Simplified Chinese now available
Let us know if you find any issues or missing stuff in the translations.
Thank you!
hotfix 1.1.1a
This patches fixes some minor issues and difficulty:
- The 3d boss ability will now trigger correctly and not too early.
- Because of the bosses abilities, the 3rd boss became a bit too difficult so we reduced their hp stats.
- Minor fixes on some cards
There is still a pending issue where the game seems to lock up on a 'crate event'.
But you can easily press ESC, go back to main menu and continue de game.
Another hot fix will be pushed as soon as the issue is resolved.
Thank you!
Update 1.1.1
I decided to push a small update now, with a planned bigger update before the end of this year.
Since a lot of players complained about the 'boring bosses' here are the new changes:
- Some of the bosses now have special abilities! There are 3 new abilities, depending on the boss.
- Minor changes to drop rates and how some 'new' cards show up
- Other minor fixes
That's it for now, thank you everyone!
Update 1.1
This is the 1.1 update with a couple of new things and some minor fixes.
- A new ship, the Vulman Bruiser!
- New station, the Casino Space Station
- 2 new audio tracks!
- 1 new card, more equipment drops
- Other minor fixes
Also expect an upcoming small update adding Controller Support and improved controls for the Steam Deck.
You can now spend all your hard earned credits in the Casino Space Station and win all sorts of random cards or just lose all your credits!
The new Vulman Bruiser ship will be unlocked by default so everyone can just try it out, just scroll to the last ship in the list!
This wont be the last content update coming this year, so expect something later this year!
Thank you!
