minor balance patch 40.18s

Mach Speed Intercept Playtest · published 5 May 2026, 19:11 UTC

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

minor patch 40.18s
- fixed Screamer's evade being slower than its Level (should match)
- option to toggle grid lines on/off

- Diamondback
slightly improved top speed of wings open hard (still below average, due to open wings)
slightly improved top speed of evade
increased hp to 100
reduce point cost by 1 (20 base)

- Emperor
reduce point cost by 1 (compared to monarch, now +3 pts at 22 base)

*compare to Barracuda+ at 22 base*

- Blockade
removed skill slot (to prevent barrel roll, temporary fix until total rework is done)
flak damage reduced (this ability is difficult because I put it in the game on a whim, i never really intend this as the characteristic ability of the blockade. the enemy cannot "evade" or take action against it, so it defies the maneuver system. I dont think its unbeatable, but it feels bad to play against because of how you can't really maneuver away from it)
base cannon damage increased 25->28 (may go higher. I want it to be strong firepower)

- Barracuda+++ renamed to Barracuda+
