With these we release our second major patch during the playtest. Some of you might have noticed that there were patches in-between, without patch notes. Changes made through those will also be listed here.
If you haven't yet, there is still time till the 18.06.2023 to check out Crystal Tower Defense for free and give us your feedback in our Discord sever here.
Gameplay Systems
Path Preview
With this patch we introduce "Path Preview". Before you finalize the turret/wall placement it will show you the new path your enemies are going to take.
Bulk Selling
We introduced a new "Bulk Selling" feature. You can now press "X" or the small coin icon, to the right of your turret hotbar (Tip: you can choose your turrets with 1, 2, 3 etc.) to switch between "Sell Mode" and "Build Mode".
"Sell Mode" is indicated with a red cursor and the coin icon being gold. Once in "Sell Mode" you can sell turrets/walls with a simple click on them.
Turret Unlocks
You can now buy newly unlocked turrets whilst being inside a run. This is only possible whilst the unlock pop-up is up.
Currently the needed crystals are tightly calculated with the stage in which you unlock the turrets, so you need to save up on crystals in previous runs.
We hope to hear your feedback on this feature and current turret prices.
UI
Added various hover/pop-up texts over icons and ui elements.
Lootbox Scene
Added a UI element showing how many crystals you received whilst opening your lootboxes at the end.
Audio
Increased the maximum possible audio.
Bug Fixes
Fixed: Getting stuck in the Armory tutorial
Fixed: Selling an obstacle 2x2 only sold a 1x1 space, blocking the path without an option to remove it
Fixed: UI overflow in Steam Leaderboard (this can be found under Statistics => Highscore)
Fixed: Unable to switch turrets whilst having one selected ("Build Mode"), without deselecting the current one
In our last update we covered what to expect in the upcoming demo for our cyberpunk heist RPG. And since then we've released a revamped trailer for the game to give you a look at the latest gameplay!
If you have a second to give it a 👍 on YouTube and leave a comment, it's a huge help.
We've come a long way from our early prototypes...
Kickstarter prototype:
Our demo today (still pre-Early Access!):
Still further polish to do before release, but we're looking forward to seeing how you all do in the demo! Mark your calendars Knights, we'll see you at the rendezvous.
Fixed audio stuttering and glitches. Added option for "Audio quality". By "default" it causes a small delay and removes glitches. If you selecting "High" it making delay as small as possible, but can cause glitches.
Partly fixed shooting unavailability before music break;
Fixed scalable text in settings;
Fixed reset to default in scope settings;
Fixed number of players in map description;
Balance
Rocket Launcher splash damage increased from 250 то 400;
Melee damage decreased from 33 to 25;
Abilities cooldown increased for Sound Punch and Circle Damage from 4 to 6 seconds;
UI improvements
Added other players to statistics in the profile;
Added message that says last matches statistics updated;
Now system messages and messages from players displayed differently;
Now in map and track selection arrows "<" and ">" are clickable.
We’re excited to share the details of the update scheduled for Tuesday, June 13th, 2023.
