Space Grunts 2 is a turn-based rogue-like with card-battling mechanics from Orangepixel (Ashworld, Meganoid, Gunslugs and Heroes of Loot). You'll encounter a wide variety of aliens, crazy robots, space pirates, hazards and other mysteries while trying to survive the spaceship and doing battle using your playing cards.
Space Grunts 2 is currently in VERY EARLY development.
Follow the game's development though blogs on this site, or semi-weekly vlogs over at youtube (side sidebar for youtube link).
Where last weeks update was a lot of fixing and tweaking, this weeks update comes in with a lot of new stuff. New aliens are added, new alternate-levels to be found, a new event or two and a bunch of new cards being sorted into your deck!
I'm not going into any details on these alternate-levels, as it's part of discovering it yourself as a player, but I might eventually do some work on some sort of Wiki pages (cause I usually forget about these secrets myself over time!)
I've been adding a bunch of alien-specific cards to the game, so that aliens now have a bit more choice during battles without having to resort to weird human like weapons.
Make sure to check out last Thursday's vlog showing the creation of the boss:
and let me know if you already encountered him! ;)
