Backer Update!

Hello there, Agents!

As you may have noticed, there was a small Backer Update for Tower 57 on Steam.

Here's what we've updated:

  • game now starts at the train station, not on the train - we believe it's a better, faster way to start the game and introduce the basic mechanics
  • added few tutorial tips at the beginning
  • a lot of balancing stuff - game should be easier and more intuitive now - let us know what you think!
  • now you can switch between characters during game - you can do that in special areas
  • upgradable weapons added!
  • two first levels and the hub area are available
  • local coop is available for testing purposes
  • some minor tweaks

Remember that game is still in alpha state - errors, bugs and crashes may occur. Please let us know about them in this discussion, if possible. Hope you'll enjoy the changes, though!

Note: if you had the game installed before - old files may cause some issues with the new build. Be sure to go to games directory in Documents folder (\Users[your username]\Documents\Tower57) and delete all the old files.

Enjoy!
