  【Ver1.1.0 Update】Shop Expansion: "Skills" Now Available!

  Thank you for downloading "Animal UFO."As the headline feature of this game, we've implemented the "Skill System", which allows you to switch up your strategy to match your racing style. Currently, you can visit the Animal Company (Shop) to pre-purchase and save skills using the "Yellow Candy" you collect in-game. *Please note that this update only covers "purchasing and saving save data" For actual equipping (customization) and activating effects in real races, please look forward to a future update!In preparation for the full release, we are revealing the details for all initial 27 types of skills that are now available for early purchase in-game!◆ Skill Basics & MechanicsSkills in this game are broadly divided into three types—Blue, Red, and Green—allowing you to customize them freely to fit your strategy.🟦 Blue Skills【Booster Type】A solid type that triggers automatically and stays active throughout the entire race, regardless of the situation or conditions, to give you an advantage.🟥 Red Skills【Favorite Type】An item-centric type that manipulates item capsule drop rates when obtained, allowing you to secure specific items to suit your tactical needs.🟩 Green Skills【Trigger Type】A tricky, specialized type that activates under specific conditions, such as when rivals are nearby or when you get caught in a tight spot.Additionally, you can equip up to three skills simultaneously as you progress through the game. While you cannot duplicate the exact same skill (e.g., stacking two "Speed-Up" skills), stacking multiple skills of the same color category (such as Blue-Blue-Green, or Red-Red-Red) is completely unrestricted!(Example 1) Stack two Blue skills and one Green skill to run a "Speed & Defense Build."(Example 2) Stack three Red skills to create a "Complete Item-Comeback Build," and so on.By the way, one of the Green skills, "Peek-Item" (which visualizes the held items of nearby rivals), comes standard-equipped for all players right from the start, which is why you c...

  [Ver1.0.1 Update] New "Hover Mode" control mechanic added!

  Thank you very much for downloading "Animal UFO"!To provide a smoother and more comfortable gameplay experience, we have added a new control mechanic: the Hover Mode feature.\Controller: Press the \ Button while in mid-air (The \ Button performs the same action).Keyboard: Press the \ Key while in mid-air.By performing this action, you can move forward while maintaining your altitude.Additionally, due to this controller remapping, the "Taunt" action has been changed to the D-Pad (Directional Pad).\In this game, increasing your UFO's altitude reduces its speed. However, when using Hover Mode movement, you can move straight forward while maintaining your full speed, so there is no need to repeatedly press the button. That said, there's a catch—you'll be much easier to get bumped and knocked around by rival UFOs during a hover. Make sure to watch your surroundings and use it wisely!By the way, I’m also brainstorming a "Turbo" that gives you a short dash after Hover Mode for a bit. It might mess with the game balance, so I'm still undecided if I'll officially add it.\With the addition of the new action, we have adjusted the controls as follows:Controller: You can also perform the UFO Ascend with either the \ or \ Buttons, and the Hover Mode with either the \ or \ Buttons.Keyboard: We have optimized the key layout based on the industry-standard "WASD" format.\We have implemented an "auto-repeat" feature for the title screen and pause menus. Now, when you hold down the controller's analog stick or D-pad, the cursor will continuously move with a responsive feel, just like a console game.\Fixed an issue in Ver. 1.0.0 where the finishing rank did not match the display on the bottom-right panel.\Changed some sound effects from free asset materials to original, custom-made audio."Animal UFO" is still in development, with many updates and new content planned for the future.We will continue to evolve the game based on your feedback to provide an even better and more enjoyable exp...
