PAX Aus is approaching very, VERY quickly. This is such an incredibly busy period as I'm frantically organizing the event - from printed material, chasing down extra TV screens, coordinating with press - not to mention preparing a PAX build... I think I need to lie down. BUT! How can I rest without updating Armed with Wings Rearmed!?

Smash some rocks!
Why attack enemies when you can hurl tons of rocks at them instead? This is one of the coolest new features I've added - it's also and idea that I've had bouncing around in my mind for a while. It's great to see this implemented and I can't wait to hear your feedback.
Large boulders now drop x3 rocks when destroyed.Level 9 introduces new Stone Pillars that drop x1 stone upon impact. You can strike these pillars 4 times before it's destroyed.
Bigger Level 9
When Rearmed launched into Early Access, Level 9 was one of the shortest levels. This is no longer the case! I've expanded upon the level greatly - it features tons of enemies, lots of rock pillars and a nifty bit of ladder maneuvering.
Bugs Bugs Bugs!
I've scrubbed through the feedback forums, and fixed tons of bugs and issues people have been having. Thank you to all you players who've been posting all the feedback! Honestly I wouldn't have been able to discover some of these rare edge cases. We've now got a build that is more stable and bug free than ever!
There may or may not be a new build until November as I'm gonig to be super busy with PAX. I'll do my best to make as many updates as I can!
If you find any bugs, issues or just have some feedback - please post in the forums both here on Steam or on the Official Sun-Studios Forum.
