Hey All, Thank you to everyone who has been giving feedback and reporting bugs across Discord, the Steam forum and reviews. The reception since launch greatly exceeded my expectations and it's great to see so many people enjoying the game already. 0.1.1 adds some new buildings, more features to captains, a new gameplay mode/difficulty and a bunch of QoL features and bug fixes. As the update is still a work-in-progress it will be on the beta branch for now. So feel free to provide feedback and report any bugs you come across on the [url=https://discord.gg/MBDTj7Zenk]Discord[/url]. Some of these changes are experimental so they're very much subject to change. To access the Beta right click on From Glory To Goo in your Steam library and then click Properties -> Betas, and select "testing - Beta Branch". Note that this version may be unstable and you don't have to try it yet. It should released fully in a week or so. [h3][b]New Buildings[/b][/h3] [list] [*] Sensor Array - Reveals a wide area around it. [*] Depot - Sends construction material to nearby buildings. This both speeds up construction and helps construct buildings far away from your main base. [*] Bridges - A 2x2 tile that can be constructed on Pit tiles and acts as a connector. Allows you to create new choke points or expand to new areas. [/list] [h3][b]New Modes[/b][/h3] [list] [*] Endless Mode "lite" - After completing a map, endless mode for it will be unlocked. Waves will spawn every 30 cycles and gradually increase in difficulty. There is no win condition, so just try to survive as long as possible! A higher intensity and standalone endless mode is planned for future updates. [*] Survivor Difficulty - If you complete Conqueror difficulty on any map Survivor difficulty will now be unlocked. [/list] [h3][b]Captain Rework[/b][/h3] There was too much reliance on Captains picking high damage skills to break through the level 5+ range. To help fix this, any enemy killed will now grant a small amount of experience to your captain. While killing enemies with your captain will still grant more experience, sharing experience with other units should now make leveling feel more consistent. Additionally, weapons often felt like a lost upgrade slot as Captains can only use one at a time. Now these will be rewarded at set intervals instead of being a selectable level up reward. [list] [*] Captains gain a small amount experience when any enemy is killed by your own or allied units [*] Captains now unlock a weapon every 2nd level instead of them being included in the unlock choice rotation [*] All captains have a global skill unlocked at level 5 that relates to their playstyle [*] Added a number of new passives and equipment to various captains [*] Some weapons have been rebalanced [/list] [h3][b]Maps[/b][/h3] Seth 148 - Dust storms will now trigger. These slow your units and all enemies as well as reduce solar panel power production. [h3][b]QoL[/b][/h3] [list] [*] Overkill avoidance - Units that use direct weapons will now take into account other direct incoming target damage. This will reduce the chance of overkill behaviour. For example commandos will now spread their shots over multiple enemies instead of all aiming for the closest.

This allows for units to "push through" groups of other units.

This may need a better solution if it leads to incredibly thick walls becoming the meta. [*] Building Selection - Buildings can now be selected by double clicking or drag select. Double clicking will select all buildings of the same type on screen. If this is causing people to destroy their bases by accident I'll add some more safeguards. [*] More building types will show their influence area when selected [*] You can now hide buildings and mountains by pressing the ~ key. Can be rebound [*] Garrisoned units will ungarrison at the entry location of the last unit that entered [*] Show all health bars is now a toggle rather than needing to be held down [/list] [h3][b]Unit Balance[/b][/h3] [b]Hover Tanks[/b] Damage 20 -> 15 + 15 (explosive) Attack Speed 1.3 -> 1.8 Range 1.3 -> 1.9 [b]Commandos [/b] Attack Speed - 2.5 -> 3.0 (To compensate for overkill avoidance) [b]Centurion[/b] Can now be garrisoned in bunkers [b]Flamers[/b] Improved the overall feel of flamethrower visual effects [h3][b]GUI[/b][/h3] [list] [*] Added ability stats to the level up panels [*] Added cooldown active and runtime indicators to global skills. [*] Added building selected count to the demolish button [*] Tooltips will now update while displayed [*] Some text and image resizing to reduce blur [/list] [h3][b]Bug fixes[/b][/h3] [list] [*] Fixed numerous issues with hydroformers not improving dirt tiles, showing the incorrect area and having issues when turned off [*] Fixed enemies not taking explosive damage on the edge of the map [*] Fixed enemies unburrowing if your unit is standing on the edge of a thumped area [*] Fixed the ion launcher hitting the same enemy multiple times [*] Fixed biomes displaying full health when being upgraded [*] Fixed research pickups not saving [*] Fixed status effects not reapplying duration correctly [*] Fixed orbiter's shots looping visually [*] Fixed moving your mouse to the edge of the screen while middle mouse moving causing additonal movement [*] Fixed fire attacks at the edge of the map breaking [*] Fixed shutdown factories breaking resource pathfinding [*] Improved shot lead accuracy for the rocket launcher and grenade launcher [*] Fixed stat gain not showing correctly on level up [*] Fixed a save corruption if in Endless debug mode [*] Fixed enemies not appearing if the game is paused and the camera moves [*] Fixed various typos and tooltips [/list]
