Ground Breakers

Hot fix Campaign Save - version 2.1.17

Thanks to our community members' help, we were able to pin point and fix the campaign save bug that happens after you destroy 1 enemy on the campaign that has more than 1 enemies.

Thanks for your continued interest in Ground Breakers, we are still trying to improve it.

Official Update 6 - Version 2.1.15 Bugs fix

Just look at the title, this version is just some critical bug fixes. Because critical bugs are urgent, and need hot fix.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

New version detail

1. New features:


  • None, this is a bug fix patch.


2. Tweaks and Balancing:


  • Buff Minig0d, mostly heat cost reduction, skill cooldown and range tweak.
  • Store battle log's open status (so you don't have to toggle it each times you play the game).
  • Reduce the quality of unknown officer (right now some of them are better than re-known officers and that's not intended).


3. Fix bugs:


  • Fixed a bug on scenario when you cleared all 8 floors, it fails to show the floors again.
  • Fixed wrong chip icons in the Delegate Scenario reward.
  • Fixed a bug happens when you craft a robot in the campaign and switch to unit scene, the game will fail to show the full list of robots you have.
  • Fixed a bug when you can't exit the auto mine's formation setting screen if you clicked on the "Formation" button multiple times too fast.
  • Fixed a minor bug when the game shows wrong officer avatars at the end of the officer list if the list is too long.
  • Fixed a bug when action point doesn't get reduced after hiring a re-known officer( the one that said some blah blah blah when you hire them).

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

What's next?

More Polishing works and new features.

Hot fix resolution - version 2.1.12

A player helped pointing out the bug with resolution changing results in disappear UI and the game didn't un-pause after the option window closed so this is our top priority to send a hot fix.

Aside from that, I'll list all the change that worth being mentioned here:

  • Fix the audio volume setting and some other options didn't get saved.
  • Fix rollur's AI sometimes try to roll to a nonsense position.
  • Balance the Hijacked game mode, you can now use another robot to stand next to the hijacked one to take the hijacker from him/her/apache. In the easier battle, the enemy in this mode will also only have 4 robots max since having the hijacked robot is already a big disadvantage.

Official Update 5 - Version 2.1.01 Auto Tasking

This version bring changes from the beta branch to the official version, you could read the feature below:


Experimental Build - Version 2.0.14 Multiple Profiles
Experimental Build - Version 2.1.0 Auto Tasking

And more!

Aside from sending a team to the infinity mine, you could also send another team to fight a scenario opponent now for chips and other stuffs.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

What's next?

More Polishing works and new features.

Experimental Build - Version 2.1.0 Auto Tasking

This is an earlier deployment of auto tasking where you can just send a team of robot to salvage the infinity mine and get the parts while you're doing something else. Or just getting low quality parts for the robots that you haven't crafted yet while mining higher quality parts.

It's a beginning part of a bigger function that will come out sooner or later.



Stay tuned!

Profile list will still stay in the experimental build for further upgrade.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

HOW TO PARTICIPATE ON THE EXPERIMENTAL BUILD: Just switch to beta setting on the steam client (right click on the game/beta).

Keep in mind that the experimental build has new features so once you switch to it your data will still be fine but you can't switch back as it's not backward compatible

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. Tweaks and Balancing:

  • Infinity Mine Bosses will now always carry some debuff resistant chips to prevent water leak abuse.


3. Fix bugs:


  • Fixed a minor issue with the camera while the ground is breaking.
  • Fixed a bug when the skill Extended Dagger could kill the boss in 1 hit.

What's next?

Delegate scenario battling. More Polishing works.

We will keep improving the game.

Experimental Build - Version 2.0.14 Multiple Profiles

This version is only uploaded to the beta branch and not the default one.

We are experimenting with multiple profiles. Basically players could choose a new profile and replay from the beginning. Initially we want to backup player progress to both the steam cloud and hard disk but the way we did thing make it really hard so the steam cloud will have to be delayed further more. Losing progress is a really serious problem so we will keep improving profile save/load process.

Also Ria has changed her appearance.

The data problem is sorted out

We have to disable cloud save until we make sure it won't affect player data. Sorry if it cause you any trouble and if it already had, lets us know and we will try to come up with some solutions.

Happy gaming!

Don't open ground breakers until further update

Steam client update may have messed up with the cloud save somehow, some players who previously using local data experienced data loss.

Pls don't open ground breakers until we completely remove steam cloud support. Your data will be safe even with steam cloud enabled earlier but we will no longer support steam cloud.
