Super Mega Update Adding New Content!

Super Mega Space Blaster Special Turbo has received some great press and player feedback since launch. This update adds some new content and make a number of improvements & fixes based on player feedback.

We've added a number of space backgrounds to the various modes in the game to give a bit more variety to the game. Players have been saying some of the text is a little difficult to read especially on 720p displays and on the Nintendo Switch in handheld mode. We've added a new font to certain pieces of text making it easier to read at lower resolutions. Players often found the ammo difficult to tell apart from the asteroid fragments due to its similar colour. All ammo is now a vibrant yellow making it much easier to differentiate from the dull grey space rocks. There was an issue in co-op where when a player re-launched, they would flash for 6 seconds but wouldn't be invincible. This has been fixed, now when you re-launch in co-op you'll be invincible for 6 seconds. Below is a more complete list of fixes and improvements in update 1.0.4.

Improvements & Additions:

  1. A number of space backgrounds added.
  2. Ammo colour changed to yellow to help differentiate it from asteroid fragments.
  3. Certain ships tweaked to give better gameplay.
  4. Survival mode tweaked to give fairer difficulty curve.

Fixes:

  1. New font added to improve readability of text especially at lower resolutions.
  2. Fixed co-op re-launch invincibility.
  3. Corrected some wrongly priced space blasters.
  4. Corrected various typos.

I hope you're enjoying the space blasting. Don't forget to leave Steam reviews for the games you enjoy, it really helps us smaller developers. Thanks for reading and see you in space. Happy blasting!ːsteamhappyː
