The Bot Hunter release is near so here's a little update.

In the previous update we have added 2 new magazines: Ripper and Plasma Ball. Now we have made a dedicated type of guns for each of them as well as new shotgun model. You can now notice the enemies holding them so you know what to expect from their attacks.

We have recieved messages pointing out that the game balance needs improving. We made some changes so player's weapon is now overheating slower and enemies are a bit more easier to kill. Let us know what you think of the gameplay now.

To help player in the later stages of the game we added higher tier to some weapon modules.

Speaking of the weapon modules - we have decided to grant access to sandbox game mode in the full version of Bot Hunter. It lets you try out all the different weapons possible to craft in the game.

As you know from the update #5 we were rewriting the Bot Hunter plotline. It is finished and includes a complete questline. Now you will be playing as a bounty hunter for the misterious task giver with an ambition to establish order in the injust bot society. During your playthrough you will encounter 4 unique bosses, each having its own model.

For the other changes:

  • Gamepad improvements: the game is now pausing after disconnecting the controller and while using Steam overlay

  • Fixing the bug causing game crash after trying to use crafting station before unlocking any crafting recipes

  • Gameplay rebalance

  • Coloring enemies health bars with the color of their armor so it is easier to distinguish which weapon color to attack them with

  • Adding a sounds to new projectiles

  • New boss arenas for the other 4 planets (available in full version)

All of the gameplay improvment you can check out now in the Bot Hunter Demo but there you can only play on the first planet. The rest of them as well as the full storyline will only be available in the full version of the game that will be released on April 7th.
