Powers! Victory! Discord!
Atomic Space Command Update Fall 2017 - Release 0.9.3.5 We have a huge deal for you this Fall, Cadets! The Fall 2017 Update brings some big new features that makes Arena gameplay more fun & intense and enables automagical (as long as you have Discord installed) bickering with your friends as you operate your amazing space vessles!
FEATURES

Discord Integration - 21 million users can't be wrong! Install Discord and Atomic Space Command will drop you into a VOIP chat with your game automagically.
Commander Powers - Lebeouf and Moon Mutant X-55 now have awesome powers that operate in-game. LeBeouf's "Super Runaway" power will teleport your ship to safety and the Moon Mutant X-55's "Psychic Terror Zone" scares the bejeezus out of enemy crew nearby!
New Arena Victory Rules - Now, instead of Spice Points, you need merely destroy all 3 of the enemy's Spice Mines... while protecting your own! First player with zero spice mines is the loser.
Updated Crew Control UI - You can now see your crew on the World View, and drag-drop them onto exterior ship parts to keep the buffin' going!

BUILD NOTES

LeBeouf character model now-in game!
Fixed issue where team colors were not being assigned properly
Increased Planet Shield size
Fixed issue where crew would not hurry based on Alert Level
Save Flight Control Scheme to user preferences
AI Fixes and tuning
Disallow docking on planets that belong to the other team
Install Discord!

Release 0.9.2 "DEVIL STAR" Halloween Update
BUILD NOTES
With Atomic Space Command Release 0.9.2 "DEVIL STAR" we bring you some Halloween fun along with our first big update! You'll find scary retro-scifi space stuff mashed up with a bit of occult in the tradition of schlocky 50s horror films like Devil Girl from Mars and This Island, Earth.
FEATURES

New Commander: MOON MUTANT X-55. This denizen of the Devil Star
System 666 will serve you, Overlord, for the right price! You will find its weaponry stats... pleasing.
New Arena: System 666. Five equidistant planets orbit a 5-pointed singularity of terror!
Stay on Target: HUD targeting and UI improved for blaster turrets (circle reticle), and fixed blaster (square reticle).
Criticals! Blasters cause 3X damage when square-cornered crit indicators are held on target long enough - you will see the reticle corners turn red.
Computerized Minions! AI options added to solar systems for build speed difficulty and number of AI cutters.
Stay on Target Part Deux! Added targeting system keys for closest target and target cycling.
Hellspace! New UI Artwork including Halloween theming.
Have It Your Way! New Settings screen with Display Options, Audio Settings, Input Keyboard Mapping, and Keyboard Default Layout illustration.
Try Not To Die... And Learn! New and updated Tutorial Videos.

Many other fixes.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ATOMIC SPACE COMMAND LAUNCHING ON STEAM EARLY ACCESS Indie co-op spaceship arena action strategy game to be released on September 30th, 2016 SAN FRANCISCO, September 12, 2016 – No, You Shut Up! Games, the game development studio where ninjas point accusatorially at you ALL THE TIME, will self-publish Atomic Space Command on Steam Early Access on September 30th, 2016 for $19.99. The title will be available in English only on PC, Mac and Linux. Executive Producer Marty Caplan said, “Steam Early Access is the perfect place to publish our next game in its early stage. Atomic Space Command has seven months of solid development behind it now, and it’s time to put it in front of the kind of gamers who can appreciate a work in progress and help us refine it.” The game will include the following features:

The basic systems are complete for networked players to build a multiplayer ship in a hangar together
A versus Solar Arena with two sides of up to two ships, with each ship having up to four players
Ships have systems like weapons, helm, shields, power and crews that must be managed
Planets have build points and a selection of installations to build on them
A basic AI system flies team-aligned fighters and smart mines around the Arena
Single player mode with 6+ completable missions
And much more!
Atomic Space Command is everything you ever wanted in a space-ship-building and arena-combat-with-friends game! Build, crew and conquer with co-op multiplayer ships in a solar system arena to become the Atomic Overlord – or at least, try not to die! Atomic Space Command is a humorous, tongue-in-cheek take on a new competitive sci-fi team sport where dozens of players manage planets, route power to weapons, thrusters & shields and fight in fleets made from their collectively built ships. Set for release on Steam Early Access September 30 2016, Atomic Space Command is THE last word in retro-futuristic cooperative spaceship combat.
