A huge thank you to everyone who’s been playing, sharing feedback, and leaving reviews. Your support truly keeps us going. Be on the lookout next year for even more content updates.
Alongside a wide range of bug fixes and improvements, here’s what Update 3 brings to the game:
New Character: K-02
Freshly assembled and not yet battle-tested, this mech comes equipped with 800 base HP and a unique dual-mode system. By pressing the ability button, you can switch between two operational states, allowing the mech to adapt to changing combat situations.
In order to unlock it you must: Clear the Space Station at least once, then follow the SOS signal in that level and complete the activation process
Power Save Mode:
The default configuration, designed for stability and survivability. While active, the mech gains 25 additional Defense, making it better suited for holding ground and enduring sustained fights.
Overclock Mode:
Overclock Mode will grant you more fighting power at the cost of increased vulnerability to enemy attacks. You'll deal more Damage, move faster and weapons will have reduced Cooldown. But your Defense stat will also be reduced to 0, leaving you very vulnerable.
Activation requires full ability bar and lasts 10 seconds.
You can cancel this mode before the 10 seconds are over. Every time you switch back to Power Save mode, the Mech will discharge accumulated energy, which will push enemies away from you.
New Environment Tiles
All 4 maps now have a new environment tile. You can now randomly find these special energy syphon stations, which will always have XP Cube Attractor at it's center. Finding them means you can attract all XP Cubes that you left behind in the level.
Localization
New texts from this update are only available in English for now. Localization for Update 3 is still in progress and will be added in a follow-up patch
