Bug Fixes:
- Items disappearing from stockpile.
- 2 players being able to access an inventory at the same time.

We are constantly getting questions from you guys about the development status and how it's going so we have decided to bring the Development updates back! These will release every week giving you fresh updates on what the team is working on! So without any further lollygagging check out what we have been up to this past week as I ran around the office trying to sneak out some photos for you fellas!

Also important announcement! As you will, and already have, see we have been working hard on optimizations and removing the issues in the game. This not only showed more time consuming than expected but also still requires work on the issues. Considering that we had a team meeting and decided to push the 0.7 update to Q1 2022. We did not take this decision lightly as we know you were hoping to get 0.7 as an early Holiday surprise. But the decision has been made to rather take more time to polish it and work on it further so we can provide you the best survival experience out there in the best state possible. Thank you all for understanding and do not worry, we still plan to release you a little something for the holidays.

Attention Commanders,

A new hotfix for Axis & Allies 1942 Online is on the way.🎲🎲🎲

⚠️OUTAGE NOTICE:⚠️Axis & Allies 1942 Online will be unavailable from 12:00-2:00pm MST while the team rolls out the hotfix.

• Added an option in Game Settings under Graphics to disable Infinite Horizontal Map Scrolling (The Infinite Horizontal Scrolling now defaults to "off" for the iOS App Store & Google Play to reduce memory usage)

Hello there,

We are adding 6th mission with New Balance in this update. It has a completely remade wave design. A lot of people complained about insane difficulty of Old Balance. New Balance is what you waited for.

We added a small feature to this map. Now, fly mobs appear from 2 hidden spots during the game. We slightly changed boss fight phase. First of all, we added space for 6-9 towers near boss spots because fight last too long in the Old Balance. Boss bug got 125% magic vulnerability. It works good with Ice towers which appear in this level at the first time. Voodoo Tower was replaced with Ice Mage. Also, parameters of Ice tower was changed.

Secondly, we changed types of enemies in the boss phase wave. Now it spawns only bugs and flies during the fight. Parameters of all mobs were changed. Fast Bug now spawns another monster upon death (instead of making an invulnerable mob with short life time). We changed Boss Bug ability. It roars on a group of allies and increases its movement speed. Also, towers get a small range bonus when attacking Boss Bug.

Finally, boss's Cocoon gives meat now. Cocoon's bugs got reduced movement speed but increased health. Cocoon heath and number of bugs now depends on the spot it spawned. For example, top cocoon spot has the lowest health and spawn less bugs (because top path appeared later in the mission and got weaker defenses).



We used basic design for different parts of the interface. Game evolved. We think it's time to make a proper design. There is a list with new design features below:

• New display of tower attack range.
  
• New display for tower building.
  
• New font for all text fields.
  
• Text in info menu used with bold font and lighter color.
  
• Cursor and it's different states.
  
• New design for spell casting with an indicator of remaining charges.
  
• New size of top buttons. Also, Mini-movie icon was removed from Pause menu

• Ice mage damage increased from 95-99 to 145-151. Attack speed improved from 2.25s to 2s. Duration of slow reduced from 15s to 10s. Price increased from 200 to 225. Also, he changes targets with every shot (to slow much enemies as possible).
  
• Bonus to enemy resistance at Hard/Nightmare changed from 0%/5% to 5%/10%. Lives at Hard/Nightmare changed from 25/10 to 30/15.
  
• Condition of Mission 1 achievement changed from 10 to 4 minutes.
  
• Added alternative scenarios for Mission 1-3 if player has already completed them (No old mage appearances and hiding a start wave button).
  
• Big Stegofly mob (Mission 6) now damages barricades upon death.
  
• Towers get an extra attack range while attacking Boss Bug (Mission 6).

• Fixed the bug when big monsters didn't damage barricades.
  
• Monsters leave blood upon death in Mission 1.
  
• Fixed the bug when Spear Towers missed a lot against Bug Boss in Mission 6.
  
• Fixed the bug when Spike trap showed wrong value upon activation.
  
• Visual fixes of Boss Bug
  
• Opening Mini-movies menu or System menu during the game turns the pause on.
  
• Boss Bug regeneration works properly now.
  
• Enemy preview in the Start Wave Button works properly now.

Update:

- Redesigned interface.

El Segundo, Calif. – December 13, 2021 – Publisher Rocket Panda Games and developer MAGES are excited to to reveal that Phantom Breaker: Omnia, the latest installment in the beloved 2D anime fighting saga, is coming to PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and Steam (PC) on March 15, 2022 for a MSRP of $39.99. The team has presented a new trailer to go along with this announcement, please watch below.



Phantom Breaker Omnia is a massive update to Phantom Breaker: Extra, a 2D anime fighting game released only in Japan in 2011. For the first time in the series’ history, this chapter will be available to Western audiences including new characters, full HD graphics, and much more!

“Today, the team is ecstatic to announce ‘Phantom Breaker: Omnia’s’ release date,” said M. Panda, Executive Panda and Co-Founder of Rocket Panda Games. “The addition of new characters, features and updates to the game has taken more time than anticipated – but for our first self-published game we had to ensure we’re producing the game to the best of our ability. The ‘Phantom Breaker: Omnia’ project has evolved far beyond a simple port and has become an enhanced and complete Phantom Breaker experience. The fire in all of our hearts will be burning next March!”

Phantom Breaker: Omnia will be the first fighting game title in the franchise to see a Western release after the successful 2013 launch of the 2D side-scrolling beat ’em up spin-off Phantom Breaker: Battle Grounds which sold over 400,000 copies.

In the game, a mysterious man, known only as ‘Phantom’ appears in Tokyo, to manipulate vulnerable adolescents into fighting each other, bestowing upon them mystical weapons of great strength known as ‘Fu-mension Artifacts.’ In exchange, he promised to grant their wish if they survive. The fierce clashes between these artifacts caused distortions in space-time, which compromised the boundaries between parallel universes. The collapse of these parallel universes would ultimately break the seal, unleashing Phantom’s destructive powers.

Features

• 20 Characters – Includes all characters from Phantom Breaker: Extra like Kurisu , Makise from Steins;Gate and two brand new characters created specifically for Phantom Breaker: Omnia.

• Three different fighting styles: Quick, Hard, and Omnia – Drastically change your characters’ speed, power, and mechanics based on your choice.

• Complex combos returned and rebalanced – Pulling off amazing combos and special attacks has never been easier as Phantom Breaker: Omnia’s fighting system has been overhauled and rebalanced.

• Dual language audio and more – A first on the Phantom Breaker series, all characters will have English voice acting. The game’s text will be also translated into English, Japanese, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Simplified and Traditional Chinese.

• Modern, remixed soundtrack – The background music for each character has been redone and remixed with the option to play the original background music.

• The complete experience – Players can immerse themselves with the stories from both the original Phantom Breaker and Phantom Breaker: Extra.
