Price update
Hey all, I've tried to run a bit of fun promotion by poking fun at Microsoft, but due to how Valve handles pricing, my attempt to drop the price by base 1$ pretty much upped the price for most regions by a bit. So like, okay... I have no time and energy to keep the prices updated

Thank you for 200 reviews!
Hi all! I just wanted to thank everyone for taking the time to write all these wonderful reviews over the years, which allowed my game to reach a staggering 94% Positive rating! I will be forever grateful for this! I guess it's a good time to share some plans for my plans for Sec

Hi all, dropping another QoL update!
Change list:

Vendor in Rift region now sells crafting items in large quantities.
Holding [control] button or on controllers now allows buying and applying full stacks of crafting items.
You can now move during the Machine explosion cutscene and end the mission early.
Fixed: Limitless inventory mode would not remove inventory restrictions in story missions.
Fixed: If the player has XP to level Ascension more than once, leveling up Ascension level for the first time does not award Ancesion Reactor.
Fixed: A crash that occurs when the game state is restarted.
Fixed: A crash that occurs when switching to the Portuguese language.
Have fun!
And don't forget to review the game, we're only one away from 200!

Hey all,
The yearly support/QoL patch is here!
The key feature of this update is limitless inventory: If you trust your PC to handle it, it is now possible to disable the inventory limit and play with dozens of inventory pages.
It does come with loading times with sorting and selling hundreds of parts, but it may be a good alternative for some.
Have fun!
Change list:
Added limitless inventory mode to the settings: Removes 3-page limit for the inventory.
Updated credits and intro to show V3663L, my new studio / artist name.
Numbers above billion are now shortened to, for example, 1B instead of 1000M. The same applies to trillions.
Absolute Deterioration decayed fragment reward is now capped at a maximum of 6600 fragments per attempt.
Attempting to level up Ascension level now consumes all available experience and instantly converts it to levels.
It is no longer possible to modify locked parts.
The 'Sell all' function at vendors now affects relics as well.
Removed several cheated entries from the leaderboards.
Potentially fixed: The game doesn't boot immediately when launching on Steam. Updating the Steam SDK version appears to have helped.
Fixed: Infinite Sustained Barrage when combined with Channel.
Fixed: Modified threat level 3 minions do not count towards True Champion achievement.
Fixed: It was hard to see how much ether the player has in battle HUD due to a display showing 4+ digits.
Big thanks to Entity, Sector Six's top player by Absolute Deterioration waves cleared for providing feedback that led to these changes!
If you wish to be similarly involved, you can head to the Discussions or join the developer's Discord server.
Also, I would like to draw your attention to the fact that we're only 4 Steam reviews away from 200!
If you haven't reviewed the game yet, this is a great time to do it!
Anyway, I got to go back to my newer projects now.
Thanks a lot for playing Sector Six - it's been almost 6 years!!! - and until next time ^_^

Update! QoL, auto-fire improvements, relic fixes

Hey all,
The promised update is live!
Here are the changes:

Ascension Reactor is now generated at item level 90.
Reliquary Diode item now sets relic level to your current spaceship level.
Auto-fire is now toggled by holding [Control] + pressing an ability key.
Auto-fire status is now saved between missions and game sessions.
UI now indicates which abilities are on auto-fire.
Added information about auto-fire to the manual.
XP is now distributed faster (A.K.A. XP bar now fills faster).
Gaining over 10 million XP in a mission will no longer cause lag + it is distributed instantly.
3 inventory pages are now the new default.
Node + Strike attack visual effect has been toned down.
Fixed: Pause menu 'controller cursor' was not usable.
Fixed: Broken Infinity UI shows "NaN".
Fixed: Setting instance severity via Infinity Instances increases altered part chances globally.
Fixed: Entering New Game+ via Time Rift mission does not reset instance severity.
Fixed: Mission overview shows incorrect difficulty rewards when viewing a story mission.
Fixed: Alloy container ether/armor on kill boost was not updated when the container was removed.
I have also added a bunch of new character avatar optimization options!
See the new possible avatars above - there are many more combinations, of course.
(Avatar can be changed at any time via settings, no need to start a new game!)
It's a small thing, but I wanted to add something new for long-time buyers.
Note:
In case of critical errors, the previous game version is available via betas.
Library > Sector Six > Properties > Betas > Enter: fallbackbranch > Select: Fallback branch
Please report any errors, this update has touched some of the very old code, and consequences are hard to predict and test.
(Also, the Linux version of the game will be updated within the next few days)
Anyway, thank you very much for everything and...
Until next time!

Hey all, Happy new year! It is sort of a custom at this point to write something about my plans for the upcoming year. First of all: The patch I hinted at once is finally in development. Planned changes: - Ascension Reactor fix: It will always be generated at item level 90. - to

Price change
Hi all, Just a quick update on price changes: I've changed the base price from $9.99 to $9. For non-USD currencies, I've tried to keep the prices similar to the base price - the results may vary. Also, I might have mentioned a game update for Sector Six, but seeing as there are n

Hey all, just a small update - version 1.5.6c - for Linux. Version 1.5.6 used to crash for some users because of a debug command I forgot to remove. Also, it was slower. I can't tell how much exactly, but quite significantly. I am only 90% sure that the new version will work, so
