Hope you find the game interesting! :)
Bug fixes! (build 299)
- Fixed bug/exploit that made the "Energy Beam Pierce" weapon annihilate any enemy instantly. Now the weapon only deals damage per action / turn.
- Fixed a bug that allowed the player to take toxic damage on the last turn of the jump. I also made adjustments that correct the hull value to "0" if at the beginning or end of the jump it is less than zero.
- Some improvements in the rendering and alignment of the text present on the death screen.
- The game tutorial is no longer mandatory for new players, only recommended using a message.
Special thanks to the player @Fernando47 who reported the bugs!
Thank you!
I would also like to thank everyone who plays and recommends the game.
NEXT JUMP was my first game released and makes me really happy to see people having so much fun with it.
Have a safe JUMP, Bastards! :)
New update (build 298)
Hello pilots!
New update is available:
- Tutorial of the game has been completely revised, now it has a more direct and shorter text.
- All Typos in the tutorial have been fixed.
- New font used in Tutorial, much more readable.
- New Fonts implemented in the game, especially those of the smaller text. These fonts have a design more aligned to the themes of the game and are also more readable.
- Implemented memory-saving system. The game now consumes, on average, half of the memory it consumed before.
Thanks to "Eeve Somepx", who made the Fonts now used in the game.

Steam Achievements and Game announcement!
Hello!
New update for the game is available and we are also announcing a new game:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/963280/Talk_to_Strangers/
Take a look at our game page and our Steam developer page . :)
The update:
Steam Achievements and Local Achievements System:
Steam achievements are now implemented in the game!
As well as an internal system of achievements (which are the same as those of Steam). There are 51 achievements made based on players' requests and observations of how the game is played.
The internal system also keeps track of the number of times something needs to be done to unlock a achievement, and continues to do so even if the achievement has already been unlocked!
Some achievements will quickly unlock for those who already played the game: Overall, all achievements based on factors already recorded before (such as the number of defeated Drones or unlocked ships) will unlock quickly. Others needed to be played normally.
Steam Leaderboards and Runs time:
The game now have Steam Leaderboards! And not just one type of leaderboard, but two:
- One to score the Reputation points (which is the score of the game), with a different list for each difficulty mode.
- And one to record Run time (the lower, the higher the position in the list), also with a different list for each difficulty mode.
Reputation rankings are updated every time a pilot dies or beats a dragon mothership.
Those based on the time of the Run only update when a pilot beats a mothership.
You can track the current Run time in the options menu, which also pauses the time.
Also improved were the way the Reputation of the last MIA pilots is shown and a new list has been added with the times of each Run (successful or not).
The current implementation of the plugin we use does not allow integration of online Steam Leaderboards in-game, but you can check out these on the game's Community page!
Updated COMBO system: Now "Reputation Combos" remain from Jump to Jump and only resets when exiting OUT of the Jump and/or taking a Hit (with shield accessories or not).
This increases the focus of the game in planning and executing each jump when attempting to beat other players' Points / Reputation. And it makes it more rewarding not be hit.
- Improved scanner making the "Danger" text red.
- Made some minor balance changes to enemies creation.
- Fixed many bugs.
- Fixed some typos (thanks for the reports!).
Thanks and I hope you like the update!
Update bug fixes [276]
- Fixed a bug where using the weapon "Energy Beam" could reset the engines to 1.
- Changed the mechanic of the Energy Beam, now it does not temporally reset the engine to "1".
- Fixed other bugs regarding the Energy beam.
- Prevented some exploits using some Accessories.
- Fixed a typo on the Shop interface.
The update for the Mac version should arrive a little later, sorry for that (I'm away from home at the moment). I recommend not using this type of weapon (Energy Beam) until the update arrives.
I will update this post as soon as I update the Mac version.
*edit: Mac builds are live! :)
Any new problems, just let me know!
Thanks for all the support, Rookies!

Thank you!
