changedFor the last 8 months we have been working on 3 main features: Co-op Multiplayer , a previously unannounced DNA feature , and the new Main Menu .
changedCo-op Multiplayer will be a free app on Steam. Up to 4 players per mission, you and your friends can cooperatively build your defenses and defend the spores against the horde of mutants. The first incarnation of multiplayer will include 3 scenes: Hangar, Orchard, and River, plus the mandatory Tutorial and Main menu. The other scenes from single-player may follow in future updates. In a few weeks, we plan to start multiplayer playtesting on Steam. I sincerely hope those who enjoy it will purchase the single-player version and get a free weapon skin to use in multiplayer.
changedThe DNA feature allows you to collect DNA through successful missions as well as finding them by exploring any scene. They are meant for you to modify the playstyle of the 2 heroes, think Soldier + Tank or Strategist + Support. Finding a balance for these 14-16 abilities is going to be challenging. I apologize in advance for abilities that are "broken". Hopefully, we can include the DNA feature with multiplayer playtesting in a few weeks.
addedWe needed more space for the DNA feature so we made a new Main menu ;). This is a vast improvement from our old "table with 2D menus". The new Main menu will definitely be included in multiplayer playtesting.
addedIn a few months, after playtesting is done, we are hoping to release all 3 features in a new multiplayer app on Steam. We will update the single-player app shortly thereafter.
addedThank you for your patience. We are always trying new things to see which missions, mechanics, or options players want. Please let us know in Discord ( https://discord.gg/xGE78wk ).
