• Improved gamepad & keyboard tab navigation in the ship menu. The currently active tab button is selected first instead of instantly switching to another tab.
• Increased scrolling margin upon focus navigation in the workshop upgrade menu.
• Minor text corrections for the tutorial.

• Two more weapon slots have been added to the game. Now up to 7 weapons can be equipped.
• The 2nd and 3rd weapon slots are locked now from the start. Unlocking them costs 10 gold each now. For existing save games the weapon slots stay unlocked.
• Unlocking the new 6th and 7th weapon slot costs 100 gold each.
• Some things in the tutorial are explained a bit better and also contains unlocking of weapon slots.

• Fixed Escape, menu and back button behaviour in menus. Buttons should now behave more intuitively.
• Weapon sell list now always gets filled up the same size as the inventory. That way scrolling down with gamepad works as expected.
• Adjusted enemy health scaling, in higher levels the value increases slower now.

• 'max level size' can now be configured on game start. Mazes don't get larger than this setting - valid values are 5-20). This also limits the amount of doors.
• Weapons can now be equipped also by activating the item in the inventory first and then selecting a weapon slot in the weapons menu.

Improvements:

• weapon muzzle flash particles and projectile spawn locations have been improved
• 'right stick fire' is now disabled by default and can be enabled in the weapon set configuration (gamepad only)
• the enemy melee fighters now bounce back after an attack to give the player more space to evade
• balancing changes: received exp, health and damage scaling of enemies have been adjusted

• lost enemy trails should no longer occur.

• Fixed homing of cruise missiles. Missiles now correctly steer towards enemies again.
• Fixed a bug with Steam Cloud. Deleted save games now still remain deleted after game restart.

Fixed bugs:

• Enemies spawning from portals were not firing correctly in some cases.
• Gamepad focus was lost after redrawing cards in the level up screen.
• Gamepad focus was lost after deleting a save file.
• Tweaked Gained Exp scaling

• Fixed a bug that prevented special attacks from doing proper damage
• Fixed jumping UI in level up dialog
• UI update for the ship stats menu (in progress)

• It's now possible on level-up to redraw the cards for a cost of 50 gold.
• The rank of a skill is now visible in the ship stats and on the level-up cards:
  
• The level up cards are now non-interactive until the reveal animation is finished. This should reduce unintended selection of a level-up.
• Fixed enemy ship trails.

• Added a new weapon: grenade launcher
• Rocket launcher (and grenade launcher) cause area damage now
• More experience points from high level enemies
• Limited maze size to level 10 (this should become a setting in the create maze dialog, but is currently always set to 10)
• Projectiles now leave a trail

  instead of just destroying the locks, now the correct order has to be found

The background of the stars was changed to be a bit lighter on the hardware and now scale with the quality settings. Bugs with collision and behaviour of enemies were fixed.

Weapons now come with different rarity and special effects. Items can be sold at the ingame workshops! (You still cannot buy anything apart from ship repairment yet, but this will change soon.) Also many other smaller and larger improvements have been made particulary with UI and controller support. The extensive demo version has close to no restrictions! So check it out right now!
