Terraforming Earth changes
We are proud to introduce the latest entry on the List of Things That Make Terraforming Difficult:
Turrets!
Be very afraid.
Bullet Hell Puzzles
Our latest expansion, Turret Trouble introduces a ton of new puzzles and hazards. In the spirit of the previous set of foes, Mobile Turrets and their stationary counterparts make the levels more challenging and require careful planning to make sure that our heroes safely get to objectives and reach the exit in one piece.
Annoying as these enemy robots might be, you also really need them to solve certain obstacles. You need Mowers to get higher and you need the Drones to fly over things. Likewise, you'll need the Turrets to... well, you'll figure it out :)
Quality of Life
Turrets are the major attraction of this update, but we've also improved the experience in many different ways and polished the game in places we didn't even know could use some extra polish. This includes tweaking with controls to make Opi and Spiri more fun to drive around, better gamepad experience and a whole new intro sequence that teaches new players how to use the Factory and the Mission Control screens.
The first three missions are now selected by hand to make sure players have time to get used to the controls before diving into the deep end of the procedurally generated pool.
Players who are flying solo will hugely appreciate that our heroes are now protected with cloaking devices when standing still. You don't need to park your robots carefully before switching to another one, freeing up a ton of mental resources so that you can concentrate on the puzzles.
Coming Early Next Week
Turrets will make their debut next week. If you are eager to meet them before the official release, hop onto our Discord server to learn the secret cheat code that unlocks them right now!
Cheers, Andras and the Lost Robots team
