Hi everyone! We're in the midst of ALPHA 18 development, but it's time for a news post.
Part of the new combat update, and the first of two new weapon types, we're happy to introduce: The Gattling Gun.
It's a weapon that is fast firing, short to medium range, and with a fairly wide spread. Unlike the beam laser, it will always fire it's maximum distance, so you'll need to be careful with collateral damage. In its current form, it requires energy, so no separate ammo to worry about. We may ultimately add a subtype of gattling gun that does require ammo, but we haven't made a final decision yet.
We've got another weapon type we're working on at this moment, and should be ready to reveal it next week.
So far ALPHA 18 is shaping up to really enhance the combat portion of the game, both in terms of weapon choices as well as other features we haven't revealed yet. We're both quite excited.
