Fixed dozens of typos (in over 150,000 words!)
Changed the icon for Ship mods from S to Z (for Zephyr!) so it's not confused with Suit mods
Updated a bunch of illustrations
Allow mid-campaign difficulty changes
And…releasing today…
Deck Management
This was by far the biggest complaint about Battle Suit Aces: your ever-growing roster of pilots and their mechs made it hard to craft the perfect strike team of pilots, drones, and command cards. Starting today, you now get to choose which cards in each category join you in battle. You can bring 10 pilots, 10 drones, and 5 command cards. Now, you'll be able to pull off tighter card combos while being a bit more careful about which cards to use to tank inbound damage. Let us know what you think in the discussion forums or on our Discord! https://discord.com/invite/qpPUwHcMBk
Reviews
Please keep adding your positive reviews here on Steam. They help us out immensely and encourage us to keep improving Battle Suit Aces! If you're looking for help with what to say, check out these wonderfully positive reviews from The Escapist, Loot Level Chill, and Game Grin:
Escapist https://www.escapistmagazine.com/reviews/battle-suit-aces/
"The battles are colorful, explosive, and easy to parse, and the UI is slick without getting in the way. The card designs are also gorgeous."
Loot Level Chill https://lootlevelchill.com/reviews/battle-suit-aces-review/
"Game of the Year contender that mashes up card combat, army building and a whole lot of heart."
Game Grin https://www.gamegrin.com/reviews/battle-suit-aces-review/
"Battle Suit Aces is a must-have for any fan of the mecha genre or card games, and if you’re in both camps, you’re in for a treat!"
What's next
For starters, a way to play with the massive number of cards we made in a fresh, replayable way sure would be neat. We'll have to set our rogueish minds to the problem…
The art team is going to continue polishing many of the thousands of illustrations in the game, especially those that shipped in a rougher state than we had hoped. As a small team self-publishing a massive game to Steam and two consoles, we ran into some turbulence.
We've got some other things under construction as well, but we'll keep them under a giant tarp in the Hangar for a bit longer.
As always, thank you to everyone who has played Battle Suit Aces! Please keep spreading the word!
