addedThe first major update since the game's early access release, the 2/2 Orb release includes one new map (f16), one new ship type (orb), a new game mode (king of the hill), gem-based progression system, improved AI, leaderboards, and a 4v4 team tournament.
changedLet's start with the f16 ship factory where the mysterious orbs have invaded, requiring you to fight them off either in single player or multiplayer mode, keeping in control of the golden sphere at the middle of the map. Already many players have told us this is their favorite game mode as it encourages non-stop competitive team play in a tight arena. The default game mode on this map is King of the HIll .
changedNext we have the orbs themselves. The orbs will appear on every map if you enable them and start off easier but get harder the more of them you kill. The AI also now moves around and tracks its opponents more carefully. If you get enough gems from your kill counts you can also unlock the orb as a ship type.

The progression system allows you to earn gems from standard in game activities, both staying inside the golden sphere while there are enemies or earning kills.

This figures on our overall leaderboard which is just released but soon will show your overall rating relative to other players in teams, average gems earned and top score in various game modes.

Enjoy! The first team tournament starts today at 2/2 20:00UTC with four player teams and $1000 in prizes.
