Happy Holidays, Masteroid players.
I have just pushed the first content update for Masteroid, version 1.1.1, to Steam. Your game client should update automatically very soon.
I really appreciate everyone that has purchased the game and taken time to review it. Your feedback directly drove this first content update!
Here are the new things in v1.1.1:
- You can now see your current status on the pause menu. This was the #1 most requested feature!
- Stations now have "level 0" missions to improve the early game flow. You can take a mission at a station even if you haven't gained reputation with that faction. However, no missions are available for negative reputation.
- Station prices now vary over time. Both repair costs and resource values will change periodically.
- Gaining reputation with a faction may give you access to a new sector!
- Camera zoom was too high. Warping to a new sector no longer resets to a really high zoom level and max zoom level has been decreased slightly
- Right click moves, double right click cancels move orders only.
- Left click targets, double left click cancels targeting orders only.
- Station indicator is slightly smaller
- Weapon balance has been slightly tweaked, however this will only affect new games started after this update*.
Thanks for playing. I'd love to see screenshots of your ships and sectors!
Sincerely,
Justin
