The flight mechanic is not available in a public build yet and will be released with the rest of 0.7.0 - hopefully during the end of June / July

The flight mechanic has improved a lot in the past week! We made another video to demonstrate the changes:

We were planning to add some kind of mini-zeppelin. It would just gently float from one place to another. But the first prototype was less stable - and more exciting! We thought we could make the 'airship' better by turning it into some kind of glider that can actually be aimed up and down. The technical term is angle of attack.

While writing last week's Friday Blog, I already had the idea, but I didn't expect us to be able to actually add it to the game, so I did not mention it. I'm very excited to be able to say that it's in-game and functional right now :D Aim the glider up and you'll gain altitude. But the higher you aim, the more speed you lose. Aim down to rapidly gain speed!

You steer the plane by aiming with your mouse. While the old prototype always followed your mouse, the new one only does so when you're using your 'motor'. This allows players to look in all directions while flying forward in a straight line.

Obviously, the prototype_flying_box has received a new model in the past week. Most of our week was focused on issues related to it, like making sure player models are attached to the vehicle properly when viewing them third person. All of these efforts can be easily reused when adding other vehicles in the future!

What's your opinion? Does the flying mechanic look like fun? Do you like the model? Would you change things?

The German translation has now been added to the editor. It's at a stage where we're happy to include it. We may make minor changes to it over time as appropriate.

There's a new BEST CARD AVAILABLE in MyTEAM, and it belongs to arguably the greatest player of all-time: Michael Jordan. For the first time, pull Galaxy Opals in in packs, including MJ's Signature Limited which is capped at only 23 individually numbered cards!

Signature Series packs also include a shot at Pink Diamond and Diamond MJ, so head to the Pack Market before they're gone on May 10!

We just finished the first ever KARDS season at end of April and what a blast it was! Let’s celebrate the winner, go over some info, and have a look at Season 2.

The winner of Season 1, Number One of the elite Officer Club, is SoraTsukishima! The reward for this amazing feat is an original Kards survival bag with a Kards flask, a real Kards booster card pack, and a special 1939 Games certificate (we keep a twin of that certificate at the 1939 Office on display). We also have some in-game reward.

Congratulations, SoraTsukishima!

We handed extra packs as reward for Season 1. Depending on the amount ranked unlocked, you got various rewards with extra rewards for Field Marshals and members of the Officer Club: Season 1, Gold Cards, and Physical Items … OH MY!.


At the end of the season and with the start of the new season on May 1, the in-game rewards have been directly added to your Kards account. Enjoy!


Now, that we have successfully closed Season 1, it is time to look ahead to Season 2 which started May 1st.

As part of our ongoing improvements, we clarified the UI so that you can easily see what you need to do to get to the next level of rewards at the end of the season.


We have adjusted all ranks to provide new challenges and to justify the good rewards that are waiting for you at the end of the season.

Except for Field Marshal rank, all ranks for all nations were lowered by 1 with start of Season 2. All stars earned in the rank so far were retained (e.g. a German Major with 3 stars became a German Captain with 3 stars).

The Field Marshal rank was lowered by two ranks down to Major 5 stars.

Directly after the end of Season 1 and with the start of Season 2, we have removed everyone from the Officer Club as none matched the prerequisites of being Field Marshal in at least three nations (see above). We already see top players arriving joining the Officer Club for Season 2, are you one of them?


Welcome to Season 2!

Hello! It's been a little while, but we've been pretty busy working on new versions and features for the game. First of all, the game now has a level editor! We know there's been a lot of requests for the ability to make your own custom levels of any song you want, so now you can.

Aside from that, you can now find the game on the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store! The iPhone and Android versions have been adjusted to match the art of the Steam version. Have fun!

We've implemented a few changes and tweaks to the game, mostly for optimization. Here's a list of them:

Features:

• Custom Level Editor: You can now upload a .mp3 or .ogg file and create your own level for it. You can find the editor by moving to the left on the Level Select menu. We wanted to create a simple and intuitive system, so you can create the shape of the track really quickly using your keyboard. Saving your level will save it as a .adofai file, which you can share with friends. We look forward to seeing what people can do with our game mechanics!
  
• Play Custom Levels: If you'd like to play a custom level that someone else has made, download their .adofai file along with the audio file in the same folder, and then open the .adofai file using the in-game Custom Level Editor. Now you can play it yourself!

Changes:

• Visual changes: We've remastered and re-optimized some of our visual assets. Most of the changes are small, but they're most notable in the level 1-X.
  
• Adjusted audio issue on level 4-1.

Bugfixes:

• Minor bug fixes and adjustments.

Due to the expanded scope of the game, especially supporting the Level Editor and playable custom levels, we are increasing the price on Steam to be $3.99 USD. We feel that this is a better match for the size of the game. The change will occur on Friday, May 10th. You can still get the game this week, before then, at the old price. Thank you for understanding!

Now that we've finished these graphics remasters and released the level editor, we can focus on working on free additional levels. We've got a few ideas in mind, so thank you for your patience as we finish the levels! And thanks again for all the very kind Steam reviews, it means a lot to us.

We will update you on here and on our Twitter/Discord when the first additional world is added to the game. You can also hang out with the 2000+ members of our Discord, and see what levels they've come up with using the Custom Level Editor. And if you encounter any bugs, let us know!
