I am thrilled to launch the second major update for Sky Cannoneer today, bringing local multiplayer to the world of Emoria!
Battle Games
This first iteration of pvp comes in the form of local multiplayer via the new Battle Games. In this mode, you and a friend can choose from all Techs, Superpowers, Forts, Boosters, and Summons, then clash with each other to see who reigns supreme!
And, while it's implemented as local multiplayer, the mode is designed to support Steam Remote Play Together for online pvp, including seamless support of multiple players on the same keyboard (whether virtually shared or on the same machine).
Input Rebinding and Gamepad support
This update also includes the first pass at an input remapping system, allowing you to customize your gameplay experience. This extends to the brand new gamepad support added in this update!
Lots More!
As usual, the update also includes balance tweaks, polish updates, and bug fixes. Check out the full patch notes.
I'll be keeping an eye on pvp balance as well as making sure to fix any issues that crop, so let me know what you think of the new mode! Also, please leave a Review on the Store Page if you're enjoying the game -- it really does help. Thank you for supporting Sky Cannoneer!

Multiplayer surprise and Weekend Sale!
Hello, Cannoneers!
Sale Weekend
First of all, Sky Cannoneer is 20% off this weekend. The game has received multiple updates, including new game modes as well as many quality of life updates, balance changes, and bug fixes. So check it out! I would love to welcome more Corsairs to our Haven Battalions.

Multiplayer
Now, like I mentioned in the previous Roadmap Update, multiplayer is coming to Sky Cannoneer very soon. As in, this month! It will support local pvp, and will be playable over the network using Steam Remote Play Together.
I also have an additional surprise for you guys. The original plan was to start off with the basic gameplay and layer on the additional techs and other gameplay elements in future updates. However, after investigating the feasibility, I will be able to include full support for all of Sky Cannoneer's extra twists on the classic formula, with all techs, superpowers, summons, forts, and boosters fully unlocked and available in pvp! Here is a sneak peek:
Thank you
I can't wait to get this update into your hands and maybe even get crushed by play some pvp against you guys. As I mentioned before, this update will also include key rebinding, and I'm investigating whether I can get gamepad support into it as well, but that will depend on how everything else comes together.
