Athena Crisis 1.0 is launching today! We are shipping a major feature today called “Invasions." Please read below for more details!
If you're an Athena Crisis fan, please consider buying and reviewing the game today. If you haven't wishlisted it yet, you can find it right here on Steam.
Here's what's new:
Invasions
Invasions are a unique feature that turn the single-player experience upside down and make the game even more fun. The crystals that were previously only talked about in the story are now actual items in the game that you can obtain or buy using Stars in the new in-game Shop.
Power Crystals are helpful, but also dangerous.
If a campaign map is too challenging you can activate a Power Crystal to receive an attack bonus, but doing so will open your world to invasions. A friend can then join you for coop gameplay, but others might invade to hinder your progress or take over the AI of the main opponent directly.
At the end of a game with an invasions, the winning factions receive “Chaos Stars”, which supplement stars you receive from winning campaign maps to buy more items. The shop also features skills, portraits and soon unit customizations that you can unlock using stars.
Tutorial
Athena Crisis now comes with a complete tutorial with 9 maps. The last map even ties into the Prequel Campaign’s story and answers a few questions that were left unanswered – until now!
What else is new?
We polished every aspect of the game to get it ready for release. We adjusted the color of water in each biome, rebalanced various skills, completed the Spaceship biome, added hints for radial menus, fixed tons of bugs and we are launching a number of secret campaign maps this week.
If you haven't tried Athena Crisis yet, you can play one map instantly on athenacrisis.com.
