Update v1.3.249

Cosmic Survivor · published · build 24584920

New achievements

  • Five new score achievements: 2M, 4M, 7M, 12M and 20M points. The ladder used to stop at 1 million, but long runs go far beyond that — now the top of the curve gets its due. 55 achievements in total.

Weapons

  • W7 Laser: the emitter now charges up at the ship's nose before firing, and the beam releases shock rings at its base. Damage and rate of fire are unchanged.
  • Weapon level-ups: each weapon slot now shows its current level and its progress toward the maximum. On level-up the icon pulses with a ring and a "+1"; at each phase change, a central notice lists which weapons leveled and to what level.

Enemy fleet

  • Fleet ships now descend with their thrusters burning. The exhaust shortens when a ship is slowed by the temporal field.
  • The SOMBRA now descends with the steadiness of a cruiser, without the fighter roll that warped its silhouette.
  • The SOMBRA got its own explosion animation, with its hull breaking apart.

Ship graveyard

  • Each wreck's size now reflects how dangerous it is: the tougher ones grew larger, the fragile ones smaller.
  • New derelict ship artwork replacing the old disc.
