| Game version 155 More new waves ! As with the v.154 update, bear in mind that some of these waves are quite hard, and they won't appear on easy difficulties. Also, as usual, the new additions will unavoidably shuffle the wave ordering of existing missions, so you might find that your stored favourites have significantly changed.

| Game version 154 New waves ! Bear in mind that some of these waves are quite hard, and they won't appear on easy difficulties.

You can also purchase CI1 as DLC in this update. More information about this update can be found here: | 18027817 | |

| Game version 147 There aren’t many player-facing changes in this update. Nevertheless, a large part of the game has been reworked.

Summer content is still available, but you have to manually select it at the main menu via Options → Seasonal Content. More information about this update can be found… | 15097437 | |
| Game version 146 Summer content! :sunglasses: ... and that's pretty much it. Enjoy! Summer content is automatically activated during 1-30 June.

| Game version 145 This is a minor maintenance release, however it does include a noteworthy quality-of-life feature: Upon first startup, your system language will be detected, and if there is a complete or near-complete game translation available for that language, it will automatically be used (of course, you can still set your language manually through the Options -> Language menu). Furthermore, the most up-to… | 14189307 | |
| Game version 144 This is a minor maintenance release, without any significant player-facing changes. More information about this update can be found here: | 13724573 | |
| Game version 143 On the face of it, this is a minor maintenance release. Behind the scenes, however, this version includes preliminary groundwork for the (tentatively-named) “ Galactic Entertainment Network ” (GEN), a way to collect and organize recordings of the “best” missions from each day, compile them in a “highlight reel” video, and broadcast them across the galaxy (well, on YouTube at least). Details hav… | 13578856 | |
| Game version 142 This update removes “The Next Wave” episode from CIU. It might return (together with the rest of the episodes) at some point in the future. In the meantime, the CI2 “Mother-Hen Ship” boss has been added to regular Invasion and Boss Rush missions. This means that boss encounters in existing missions (e.g., your favourites) have potentially changed. “Virtual Joystick” has been added to touchscree… | 13285663 | |
| Game version 141 This update replaces the “ Revenge of the Yolk ” episode with the full “ The Next Wave ” episode in CIU, directly playable from your Profile screen.

| Game version 140 This update replaces the “ Ultimate Omelette ” episode with the full “ Revenge of the Yolk ” episode in CIU, directly playable from your Profile screen.

| Game version 139 This update replaces the “ Cluck of the Dark Side ” episode with the full “ Ultimate Omelette ” episode in CIU, directly playable from your Profile screen.

| Game version 137 A lot of internal changes in this update, but also a couple of player-facing ones. PC only (not smartphones): You might notice that the download size is significantly larger than normal.

There is a button labelled “Seasonal Content” in the Options menu that will allow you… | 11836422 | |
| Game version 136 A new boss ! This update certainly took a while, but the new boss Burgermeister™ 3000 boss presented several design challenges and took a lot longer than expected. In terms of implementation, it’s the most complex boss to date, requiring some never-before-seen mesh deformations and several new special effects. And of course copious tweaking until the fight is fun and manageable. But be warned –… | 11623525 | |
| Game version 135 It certainly has been quite an adventure, but the Android version has been officially released! Well, it’s still in the “open testing” (or “Early Access”) phase, but it will be moved to “production” within the next few days. You can download it here: 5 Sadly, Google Play only supports 64-bit apps and will flatly reject 32-bit code, so you may find that your device can’t install the game. This i… | 11155337 |
