New weapons, Level 3 optionality, Community Translation
Shortest Trip to Earth · published
This update adds 10 new weapons/modules, sprinkled across levels, events and enemies. This means you might not encounter them every run. Level 3 quest is now optional (though skipping it remains economically questionable). We've also made a fair amount of balancing changes (generally making the runs more survivable) and numberous fixes. Please keep recommending Shortest Trip to your friends :)
