Arsenal - Major Update

New Bonuses

The game now includes 6 new bonuses, which raises the total to 10.

It was initially planned to have 4 added but I felt like some more ideas were worth the extra development time.

So here are the 6 new bonuses and what they do :

Game Configurator

Each time new content is added into the game, there is a risk players don't like a specific new thing and would rather keep playing the game without it.

It is now possible with the new in-game configurator : disable anything from picking phases, building phases, blocks, bonuses, and play the game YOUR way.

It also allows for fun new ways to play the game, like playing with only 1 type of block, or only destructive bonuses, and this will keep expanding even after Early Access as we keep adding new content.

You can find the game configurator in the Settings panel.

Next Major Update

The next major update that should be available before the end of 2023 is Yums Book.

It will include a collection system, cloud saving, and achievements.
