RIFTS IN REALITY
Rifts in Reality is here! Strap yourselves in for new ships, new upgrades, and new secrets, all themed around a strange cracking in spacetime.

Happy flying,

Update Release Time
Ready for the new update? So am I! Almost. I'm looking to have everything wrapped up and ready to download by 6pm EST.

See you then!

EDIT: I need a few more minutes to tie some loose strings together. I'll keep you posted on progress.

August Roundup


Launch was amazing. You all rock. Let's recap what's happened over August and talk about the themed update coming in October.

Community Achievements



  • Esty89 ripped the game apart for hours on Twitch. He hasn't figured out the altars yet though. I know he'll get there!
  • Esa got a huge score and willingly ended his run before running out of lives. Spoiler warning, Esa knows all the secrets.
  • Rock Paper Shotgun included RASHLANDER in their Guilty Pleasures roundup.


What I Have Been Doing?



  • You can see in the Bug Hit List many of the fires I have been stamping out. The game is much more stable and less reliant on good RNG than at launch. Thank you everyone who told me about a bug they found.
  • Aside from bugs, I have also made adjustments to improve the overall experience. I've improved mechanics in the Loop, improved navigation throughout menus, added features to the Twitch Integration (like chat-centered research upgrades!), and made the Daily Highscores visible through the game menu.
  • I've snuck features, secrets, and research upgrades into the game because I just can't help myself.


I Mentioned an Update?



  • YES! Now that things are chugging along and relatively disaster free, I can focus on adding new
  • **exciting*** content. Expect the next update to have new obstacles, opportunities, secrets, buildings, areas, and upgrades--all grouped around a central theme. Rifts are opening in reality, and everything is getting...wobbly.
  • September will be quiet on updates so that come October first your Steam library has an EXPLOSION of cool new stuff to crash into play with!


Thank you for reading, for playing, and for being so incredibly cool.

All Systems Go!
Finally time to hit that big green button. Thank you all for your patience, the weather today looks perfect for a launch. All systems GO at 12 EST sharp.

I will be very much around over the next few days, so please come say hello in the Discussion Boards. Post your strategies, piece together secrets, form rivalries, and be excellent to each other. I will be listening to and considering feedback as I race off to beef up current features, respond to bug reports, and finalize the October 1st update, "A Rift in Reality".

Strap yourselves in, it's gonna be a fun ride.

Ryan


Launch Delay
If you're reading this you were probably hoping to get your hands on RASHLANDER today. And boy do I want to hand it over. I had to make a tough call yesterday and decided to push the launch date back to August 6th.

There are a bunch of reasons for this but essentially they all boil down to "Ship Quality", "Don't Crunch", and "Listen to Good Advice".

Come back to the launch pad when the weather's better and I promise you a great show. I can't wait to let you all play.

See you in a few days!

Ryan
