Patch NotesOfficial
Small update 4/10/2026
- Fix bug reporter - Fix softlock at the end of the tutorial that was affecting some users (if you still experience this please let me know) - Controller bindings can now map one control element to more than one action, since there are unfortunately more actions in the game than buttons on most gamepads, controller players can now map the camera centre action to a button already in use (recommend mapping it to the reverse button) - Add new achievement, since its a pretty dry update otherwise.Read full article on Community Announcements (lifetapstudios)Patch NotesOfficial

Unity security patch
This update contains only a patch to address a security exploit that was discovered in Unity (the engine used to build the game). Information about the issue can be found here. There should be no functionality changes at all, but if you do encounter a problem please submit a bug with the bug reporter. The next actual patch should be in a few weeks with the French and Japanese translations.Read full article on Community Announcements (lifetapstudios)Patch NotesOfficial
Update 09/27 Fixes and Fighters
A few fixes and new things: - Magnus wing pitch tuning - Refuel plane day/night glow adjusted - Upgrade costs balance - Sensitivity slider for manual mode orbital and lookaround camera speed - Reverse input now requires short button hold instead of press to prevent accidental reversing - Hangar damage speech now has a random chance to play instead of all the time - Fix softlock in the brewery section of the tutorial - Fix propeller trait bonus not applying to Pearl Grape - Fix Vapor Rockets detaching after visiting bar - Fix cockpit camera position to prevent visible pilot goggles in front of the camera - Missiles use a new interception calculation called Proportional Navigation, which means they will more accurately intercept the target heading, instead of the current simple method of chasing from behind. Rate of turn has been decreased so the overall difficulty has not increased, but the importance of the first evasive maneuver is increased. If the first evasion is good then they will generally not turn around and keep chasing you. - Pirate Fighter planes have been added, these are faster and much more maneuverable than the gunships so they are a bit more difficult to chase down and shoot, however they have less health and do less damage. - Fighters and Gunships are used in various combinations, increasing in number as the game goes on. There may also be additional waves of fighters later in the game, as well as fighter variants that have different behaviours. In the later game as the number of bosses increases there will remain one gunship/fighter encounter (previously they were all removed).Read full article on Community Announcements (lifetapstudios)
