Hi defenders,
Today's update adds some exciting new features to Banshee Force. A new tower has been added to the game named the "Auto Missile Laser". This tower will automatically target incoming missiles with its laser turret and blast them out of the sky. The tower has a 15 second cooldown and 800-meter range so it is pretty powerful for swatting down missiles when you are not paying attention. In the future when multiple cities are being attacked this might be the only thing standing between you and your cities.
In addition to the new tower we have tested Banshee Force with the Oculus Rift VR headset and touch controllers. The game plays well with either the HTC Vive or the Oculus Rift through Steam VR. We are officially enabling support for the Oculus Rift in room scale with the touch controllers.
Lots of other little bug fixes and improvements were added including support for a missile counter on the right controller so you know how many missiles you have left in all towers and cities.
Patch Notes:
- New Tower - Auto Missile Laser
- Added Support - Oculus Rift w/ Touch Controllers
