Environment Update, Linux Steam ReleaseThe main focus of this update is new environmental aspects that make you feel more connected to the environment in the game; The two main environmental elements added are hazards that can either hurt you or can be used by you as traps for enemy ships, and a freight ship system, over 200 freight ships that fly back and forth between nearby stations, react to nearby enemies and battles, and as well can be communicated with and traded with.
Besides the freight ships there have also been numerous optimizations, tweaks, and improvements across the game, and a Linux build! The Linux build has only been tested on the latest version of Ubuntu so far, however should be compatible with most newer graphical consumer focused 64-bit Linux distros. I would suggest you use vendor graphics drivers If possible on Linux.


Changelog:
- Freight ship system with trading (You can trade lower level items for a higher level item, both which can be found along the ship's trade route. Each freight ship also has a procedurally generated bio.)
- Shrapnel field hazard/trap (Slows ships moving through them, blocks missiles and component sourced torpedoes)
- Asteroids (Deals a large amount of AOE damage to ships near them when they collide with eachother. Shields provide good protection against these.)
- Ion Storms (Massive EMP blasts that knock out shields, and stun ships within their radius)
- Linux build
- Overhauled Planet graphics
- Overhauled EMP/Lightning graphics
- Explosion graphics improvements
- Graphics optimizations, and graphics card compatibility fixes
- Fixed missiles
- More!
For yet-to-be users, please note that demo version has not been updated yet, however will be updated in the near future with a Linux version as well. Also a Mac build is coming to Steam soon.
[ 2018-09-09 04:38:32 CET ] [ Original post ] BlockShip Wars: Roguelike is an action roguelike/RPG where you build your own ship, explore huge procedural maps, and battle computer controlled enemy ships entirely made out of components that you can salvage and put on your ship.Ship Building
- Fully integrated and seamless ship construction, as soon as components are detached from an enemy ship they can be equipped onto yours.
- In total 76 types of components that can be welded to your ship, including; Shields, Railguns, EMP Launchers, Missile Launchers, Lasers.
- Multiple configurations for most weapons.
- Melee weapons, including; Spikes, Pikes, and Spinning Saws.
- Articulating pieces like Powered Hinges and Chain Links.
- Modular damage and power system.
- Interactive tutorial to get you started.
Game Modes
- Roguelike mode: Permadeth, no levelling/XP system, specials are randomly dropped by defeating enemies. All enemies are roughly the same level, bosses are a little stronger. Good ship design in this mode is key.
- RPG mode: Experience system, specials unlocked by levelling up and defeating bosses. Enemy levels and boss levels increase as you make your way through the game.
Secondary Missions & Space Stations
As well as the primary missions (bosses), there are now secondary missions which can help you level up faster and get higher level and harder to get components as rewards. There are missions available from every space station, and roughly 25 space stations (one in each area) in each game. Missions get replenished as you go through them, and are randomly generated and scaled based on the difficulty of the area you are in.
- Cargo missions: Attach cargo containers to your ship, fly them safely to the destination space station to get a reward.
- Hunt missions: Destroy a certain number of a type of drone ship in the target area to get a reward.
- Trophy missions: Take a specific type of ship component from an enemy ship in the target area, and return with them to exchange them for a reward.
- Freight ships: Over 200 freight ships flying around all at once in the map. You can trade with them, and they can be useful in finding space stations you haven't discovered yet.
Enemies/AI
- Over 50 AI controlled drone ships to battle and salvage from.
- Each one is made entirely out of components that can be placed on your ships, and many have special abilities that you can unlock.
- Enemy ships now have pack dynamics, and each one has a different personality. Sometimes they will fight themselves if one accidentally attacks the other.
- 7 bosses
More
- 18 special abilities to give you an edge, including Torpedo, EMP missile, Shockwave, Singularity.
- Huge procedural generated maps to explore.
- 4 page inventory to store extra components and crafting materials.
- Crafting system, where elements are stored in stacks in your inventory and blueprints are unlocked by melting down components.
