Hostile Lands · build 22732557 · published
After almost a year, Hostile Lands is back with a fresh new approach. Our biggest change of all has been how the core gameplay loop works. We’ve replaced “Normal” and “Hard” mode with a new “Lite” mode.
In Lite mode, permanent upgrades can be unlocked, and each run will get progressively harder as you escape with the original 12 crew members.
The Crash Site has been completely redesigned. Each original crew member now has their own "station" which will allow you to access interactive menus (some still under construction). We also have areas set up for all of our "secret" characters (coming soon).
There's plenty more... see our list below for details... in the meantime, what could this be? :)
