Not seeing the update?
Steam doesn't usually inform the player right away of the update, they tend to wait until you restart your Steam client or until a bit later after the update has come out. So if you want to get the update right away you can do the following:
- Right-click the game in your library and select properties
- Go to "Local Files" and click "Verify integrity of game files"
- The game should immediately start updating!
Update 5.0
This update brings in a brand new map for the Infinite Waves game mode as well as several fixes for existing maps.
New Map
I wanted to do something a bit different with how I designed this map. The map is very open leaving a large amount of space for players to shoot enemies in-advance as they come, but only a limited area for actual building.
Final Stand
The enemy has broken through the frontlines entirely and is now on a rapid offensive attack. Make a last-minute stand to defend your army as it retreats to a more defensible position!
Other Changes
Balancing
- Slightly redistributed spawn rates for the final wave indexes (Made final 2 units on wave indexes 7/8/9 slightly less common & made so 2nd to last unit of a theme has 3% chance of spawning per roll on wave 6).
Fixes
- Fixed invisible wall on Broken Pass preventing player's from killing AI on the wooden board on Broken Pass
- Fixed several out-of-bounds spots on The Gate where players could place buildables that no attacker could destroy
- Fixed out-of-bounds spot on Broken Pass where players could place buildables that only ranged attacker's could destroy
Conclusion
For this update, I had considered taking the week off due to the medical complications of last week. Because of them, I had to take a few days to recover & attend various appointments which also made me have to catch up on contract work.
But it didn't sit right with me for the game to go 2 weeks in a row without an update, and especially one without content. So I tried my hardest to get at least one new map out for this one, as well as fixing some of the currently most commonly reported glitches/bugs.
I'm very happy so many people showed their love & support regarding what happened medically. Discussing it with my physician he informed me he is unable to pinpoint a classification for what happened, I'll be drawing blood to check for any heart problems over the weekend, this is likely the last time I'll mention it in a Steam announcement so any future updates will be on the Discord.
Sincerely,
Blake Gillman
