Homelab Update is Live!
Today we've launched the largest upgrade system to the game to date, featuring 8 categories and 32 unique upgrade types. The nature of the Homelab system is it involves a steady flow of upgrade power, and doesn't allow a player to simply spend currency for instant results. It requires time for upgrades to unlock and improve, and there is no way to pay to force them to complete faster.
New upgrades are revealed as you level up your Homelab by installing new components and upgrading the aspects of each section. These upgrades include unique new effects, mostly tailored around defensive mechanics. You will eventually find upgrades that can reduce enemy critical hit chance/damage, the ability to stun enemies for a round, and even the ability to preserve part of your win streak after you lose.
This system will continue to get expanded over time, as it provides a strong base to add unique new effects that can affect hacking, gathering, and community events.
