Hi everyone!
Tower Factory v0.4.1 is now live!
The highlight of this update is a brand-new feature: Fast Forward. You can now speed up the game during a run, perfect for those moments when you’re waiting to gather more resources or just want the action to move along a bit faster.
This is something many of you have been asking for, and after giving it a lot of thought, I believe it truly benefits the game.
Alongside this new feature, overall performance has been significantly improved, on both GPU and especially CPU.
A few days ago I published an updated roadmap leading up to version 1.0. In the next update (v0.4.2), I’ll be adding an in-run save system (Save & Exit) as well as global save slots that you can switch from the main menu. That way, you can start a brand-new run from scratch without needing to delete your current progress.
In the meantime, I’ll be reading your feedback and suggestions both in the Tower Factory community forums here on Steam and in the official Discord server (you’re all invited to join!)
That’s all for now. I hope you really enjoy the new update,
Gius Caminiti
CHANGELOG
Fast-forward: You can now increase the game speed during a run using the buttons below the time UI or the keys assigned in the settings menu.
Nights until boss are now shown in the Dark Fortress menu.
Fixed an issue that significantly worsened performance compared with version 0.3.
Added further performance improvements, especially on the CPU side.
The boss “Emperor Frostbeak” now summons one fewer minion.
Slightly tweaked the enemies that appear in some level's boss waves so they better match the boss (difficulty should be the same).
The level name now appears in the pause menu.
