Icarus Week 206 Update | New Impact Frag Grenade

Welcome to Week 206.

This week we are adding the Impact Grenade, a new explosive that detonates on impact instead of relying on a timer - making tactical throws quicker and more reliable in the heat of battle.

As a sneak peek at what’s ahead we provide a little information about T5 and the oil extraction loop, broadening how you’ll gather resources and build strategic bases from the ground up.

Next week, look out for the Butchery Bench, a new station that will give you more options for processing and cooking meat - beefing up your survival workflow and culinary flexibility.

Notable Improvements:

• Improved UI for highlighting missions when searching in that mission select screen
• Add Saddles and Tame Beds filters for use on the Ranching Station.
• Moved fillable circle to location where stack is - since stackable items cannot have the fillable trait
• Fix Tusker Mount getting stuck on doorways by resizing/positioning cloth collider

This Week: Impact Grenade

This week we’re introducing the Impact Grenade, now available in the T3 Tech Tree and craftable at the Machining Bench. Unlike the original grenade, it detonates on impact - delivering maximum damage at the point of contact, with damage falling off around the radius.

While it deals slightly less damage than the standard grenade, its instant-explosion nature makes it ideal for clearing packs of creatures. Just be careful: if you’re too close, you might blow youself up.

Upcoming Tech Tier: T5

As we mentioned last week, we are working hard on our next major expansion alongside our usual weekly updates, but we wanted to show you some backstage content as we work on it.

We are adding Oil Extraction and Processing as the Core base for a new tech Tier T5. Oil whether collected from a geyser and processed or generated a cleaner way becomes to core for the new resources which unlocks T5. These geysers will be present in clumps and be added to all existing maps when ready.

Anyone who was in the experimental at the beginning of the week would have has a very early (accidental) preview in the upcoming expansion. Unfortunately it is a little to early for public testing. So keep checking these weekly updates for more information.

Next Week: Butchery Bench

Next week, we’re introducing the Butchery Bench. This new station will allow you to break down prime meats using existing recipes as well as unlock entirely new recipes, enabling you to craft prime meats from scratch.

Your support makes these updates possible.
