changedSwapper 5 can transform back and forth between two battle modes: Tank and Sniper. In Tank mode, the Swapper 5 has a rapid fire cannon great for taking down swarms of small asteroids. The Tank mode has tough armor but is not very agile. In Sniper mode, the Swapper 5 has a mid-range highly accurate sniper shot and gains a lot more agility, but sacrifices armor.

v1.04: Two New Ships to unlock: The Razor and Swapper 5. Razor costs obsidian and the Swapper 5 is a great starter ship that only costs dust.

Swapper 5 can transform back and forth between two battle modes: Tank and Sniper. In Tank mode, the Swapper 5 has a rapid fire cannon great for taking down swarms of small asteroids. The Tank mode has tough armor but is not very agile. In Sniper mode, the Swapper 5 has a mid-range highly accurate sniper shot and gains a lot more agility, but sacrifices armor. Tapping the special button will swap between modes.

The Razor is a small agile ship with fast firing twin laser cannons. When holding special, the Razor will use side-to-side thrusters rather than turning! The Razor is a fantastic ship for advanced users. With the additional maneuverability, its small size, as well as a center of rotation at the rear of the ship, it can evade danger like no other ship can.

We also made a number of tuning changes and bug fixes:

  • Some shots now have far less effective homing: Laser, Arrow, and Flames.

  • Heat transference of asteroids has been greatly improved.

  • Alternate Pause and AI keys have been swapped (now on R3 and L3 respectively). (Alternate buttons are there to support some legacy controllers.)

  • Homing no longer locks onto lava and glowing asteroids

  • Homing should prioritize enemy ships in versus mode now

  • Dust counts up faster when the player picks up a LOT at once

  • Assisting an ally results in greater starting health

  • Lightning Ball now sets off mines.

  • New Restart option in the pause menu, especially useful for versus mode.

We recently were interviewed by Team Ninjen Gaming! You can watch the video over on YouTube wherein the kids talk about their favorite ships and some upcoming content while we all try not to get crushed. Watch the interview!

- Keep blasting, pilots!
