Here at Thunderbox HQ we've been working away diligently on upgrading and improving your starship!
We'd like to share a quick road-map of what's coming up in the not-too-distant future...
More Crew!
We're aiming to deliver a new crewman roughly every month, starting very, very soon. The next three space cases to join your intrepid team will be...
- Teleporter Chief - this surly gent is an expert at beaming both crew and tools alike.
- Tactical Officer - from her post on the Bridge, she can keep the shields up, and the skills flowing.
- Hologram - laser beams pass straight through him, making him real handy when aliens are around.
We'll be releasing the crew in sets of two, so keep your comm frequency open for more news! But if you want to break the temporal prime directive, then you can travel to the future and get the characters early... just activate beta mode in the game's properties. You'll find the Teleporter Chief is already waiting for you!
More Features!
Along with the extra laser fodder, we're also adding strange, new stuff to the game. Here are some of the new-fangled doo-dads we're upgrading the ship with...
- Crew Randomiser - don't just play with the A-team*... Mix it up for even more disaster!
- Tactical HUD - got a massive, hi-def monitor? Lucky you! See everything from the main ship view...
- Achievements - how could we not? Everybody loves achievements!
Check out this sneak, work-in-progress peek of the Tac. HUD...
That's it for now - if you have an idea for a feature, or want to make sure your favorite crew member is released right-frickin'-now, then join the melee on Discord. We have laser pistols...
* If you're having trouble saving the ship... if no one else can help.... maybe you can hire... the A-Team... of Admiral, Chief Engineer, Soldier & Cyborg!
