There will be more data and proper atribution here (original author, steam link, original post date, etc) real soon, I promise. This is just like a technical test to see if they're coming in ok at all.
Nova Drift » Enemies 2.0, Part 2 Is Now Ready For Beta Testing
Hello Drifters,
The next major update is upon us, and if all goes as planned, it will be launching in a couple weeks. In the meantime, if you want to give it a go, head on over to the BETA branch on Steam, which should give you version 0.33.22 at minimum.
Here are the patch notes: https://blog.novadrift.io/patch-notes/
The major bits:
- Challenge Mode: Draft has been added to the game! Jump into end-game (wave 120) with 35 upgrade points to spend. If Draft mode is enabled, it will use separate leaderboards for “Draft” and “Wild Metamorphosis Draft”
- Added three of the five alternate bosses that may be encountered instead of standard bosses if the NEMESIS Challenge Mode is enabled:
- A new alternate boss: Ceratotitan (wave 20)
- A new alternate boss: Crucible (wave 80)
- A new alternate boss: Glaucus (wave 100)
- Added new BGM & SFX for all new boss fights
- Ultra-Rare Wild Mod: Ricochet has been added to the game
- Ultra-Rare Wild Mod: Challenger has been added to the game
- New Super Mod: Charged Shields has been added to the game
- New Super Mod: Infuse has been added to the game
- New Super Mod: Strafing Strikes has been added to the game
- Added a new power-up to the game: Armor Fragment
- Steam Deck is now fully supported
- You can now enable “Large Text” from the settings menu. This also compacts the upgrade layout, which is also useful for very low resolutions or window sizes. With Steam Deck, this will be enabled by default
- Spanish localization has been added
- Drone Reworks
- Mine Rework & Balance
- Construct Quality of Life
- Balance tweaks, bug fixes and more…
