Build 26203056

Textorio has been you against the planet. This time another operator gets a vote.

Factory Wars brings 1v1 matches over Steam. Same planet, separate factories. Win by destroying the opponent's vault or taking out their operator.

New in 0.9.5

+ Create Game opens a lobby. Invite a Steam friend, including when their game is closed.
+ Browse Games finds open matches worldwide.
+ Research in matches stops at the military tier. Belts, power, production, walls, turrets and ammunition stay available.
+ Incompatible multiplayer versions explain the mismatch instead of quietly falling out of sync.

Fixed in 0.9.5

+ A piston crusher could happily run on water >>> it now accepts steam only. Thank you for reporting that one.
+ Mining boulders and demolishing terrain could leave the other player seeing different ground >>> those changes now reach both players.
+ Shift+Tab opened the inventory >>> modified Tab shortcuts no longer trigger it.

Also since 0.9.3

0.9.4 shipped without its own announcement. Here is what it added:
+ Steam achievements for your first factory, research, colony and descent.
+ Progress earned offline is sent to Steam the next time you load that save with Steam running.
+ A failed disk write could damage your save >>> saves now finish writing before replacing the previous file, and failures show an error.

Current limits

+ Competitive 1v1 only. No co op or ranked matchmaking.

Tell me how your first match goes. I want to see what you build, and what breaks.
