Bravers updated demo

We want to say "Thank you" to our Bravers community for the feedback we got about the demo version of Bravers. We have worked hard to prepare an updated demo version for you to play. And today, we are happy to announce it is available on Steam for everyone.

Build points

We like creativity, but we also believe having 5 turrets is not the same as having 5 storage blocks.

Even if you have enough resources, you cannot build a ship with 10 turrets and go for revenge. Each block now has its own cost in build points. You receive building points with levels or through skills and perks. So plan accordingly.

Save system

We know you have been waiting for it. Now you can save your game at any time and then resume later on.

Do not forget we have some sort of permadeath system in place. Whenever you killed, the save will be deleted, and you have to start from the beginning. It is not a bug. It is a feature.

Key bindings

Another requested feature. Now you can assign your preferred keys to any actions in the game. Want to move forward with "S" and backward with "W" - now you can.

Two new enemies

Be careful. Fire Spitters and Pirates are not the biggest problems anymore. There are 2 more enemies around waiting for the Brave captain.

One of them already looks dangerous, but wait for him to start shooting (or better not). Another one is hard to spot, but trust us - you will remember that moment.

New ship block

We added a new block to the demo for you to try different game strategies. Being simply an armor block, it may change your game style completely. There is no need to tank with your engine anymore.

But even with lots of resources, you cannot build a ship surrounded by armor blocks. Remember that build points story?

Rendering and Visuals

We fixed the FPS issue. We changed the Unity version (that was a bumpy ride). We completely changed the rendering pipeline and the way we work with assets. As a result - 300+ FPS (we even had to cap it) and a new look of the scenes. Enjoy.

Equipment and Perks system

Now you can equip your crew members with items. Maximum of 2 items allowed per crew member. It will give you some bonuses, to make your life easier. Try using binoculars, for example.

Sometimes your crew members will get perks. Those are mainly random and can be positive and negative. Remember, you can still throw any crew member out of the ship.

Help System

We added more information to the in-game help menu. Do not hesitate to look through if you are new to the Bravers world.
