NEW!

• Linear Spring - A spring of uniform diameter that compresses and extends with a damper inside.
  
  • Linear springs come in two sizes - small (1x1x1) and large (3x3x1) -- which can be resized to a length of 1x1x25 and 3x3x25 respectively.
    
  • Similar to the large piston, the large linear spring takes up more space but is more powerful, capable of higher settings in its Properties panel.
• Torsion Spring - A spring whose endpoints twist, storing and releasing rotational energy.
  
  • The torsion spring comes in one size (1x1x1) and isn’t resizable.
• Suspension Wheels - Left and right wheel constructs that provide basic spring suspension.
  
  • Suspension can help steady the chassis of your vehicle as it drives over uneven terrain.
    
  • Each construct includes a wheel, motor, and spring with some default properties.

These will be available right away in the Sandbox, and you can unlock them in the Campaign if you have at least 18 bits.

Bug fixes:

• [Steam Workshop] Badges for Dance, Dance, Robot Revolution and Piñata's Peril were not showing up as completed mission tags in the Steam Workshop.
  
• [Steam Workshop] Local copy was not saved to robot list after loading a Steam Workshop robot that was created and the user chose to restore local copy.
  
• [Across the Goo] It was possible to earn the "Without touching the pipes" secret after touching the pipes to get across.
  
• [Saving/Loading] After overwriting a robot, the robot was deselected in the save/load menu, even though its name remained filled in the filter bar and the Save New button was still available.
  
• [Usability] Humans lost line of sight of the robot too easily, which made it difficult to navigate them to specific areas.
  
• [Build] When first dragged out of the parts menu, long wheels did not validly snap to short rods that were attached to other parts.
  
• Additional minor fixes and updates.

Noteworthy known issues:

• If you’ve attended any backyard parties in RoboCo lately, you may have noticed that a certain Pinata appears to be made of titanium alloy, and is nearly unbreakable. It’s a real vibe killer! Accordingly, we’re switching Pinata suppliers and will have a much more breakable version of this Pinata available in our next update. In the meantime, we recommend sticking to the main objective in Pinata’s Peril while we sort out this pesky supply chain issue. For a brief and mechanical description of this issue, see the bullet points below:
  
  • [Pinata] User is unable to achieve "Break the Pinata while it's high up" objective.
    
  • [Pinata] Achieving the "Destroy the pinata in one hit" objective is inconsistent.

Fixed a bug where cyber warrior do not progress through phase 2.
Fixed the problem of drowning after clearing the ocean guard.
Fixed a bug where the recovery amount of the Meditation Weapon skill was not applied properly on normal difficulty.
Fixed a bug where DLC weapon damage was not properly applied to enemy HP UI.

Hello!

We’ve made the decision to shut down our game company Kiemura. This means that Tiltagon will be removed from Steam as soon as possible.

These past 8 years have been quite a rollercoaster ride for our two person team. In the beginning of 2023 we transitioned from full-time entrepreneurs to being full-time employees in completely different companies. This meant that Kiemura was left completely to the sidelines.

Now has come time to end this chapter in our lives and close our company completely.

Thank you to all our players for the loyalty and support during these years. Keep on gaming!
Jyri Kilpeläinen
CEO & Co-founder, Kiemura

We are going live August 8th, 2023 (08/08/2023) at 12:00am! OMA will be available to download and play on that date. The games soundtrack is also included free of charge for you to enjoy!

Dear Silica community!

Another update is here, this time focused on turret balancing and, most importantly, the addition of air units in a preview form - via the Arena game mode (on maps other than Combat Dome).
Feel free to give it a whirl, and please give us your feedback! Here's the complete changelog:

• Added: Gunship as air unit
  
• Added: Fighter as air unit
  
• Added: Dropship as air unit
  
• Added: Bomber as air unit
  
• Added: Air units to Arena game mode (not in Combat Dome)
  
• Added: Support for turret salvo fire (firing and then interval)
  
• Changed: Heavy Turret now built at tech 4
  
• Changed: Turret now built at tech 2
  
• Reduced: Turret ranges
  
• Fixed: Could cancel production of queued units for enemy team structures
  
• Fixed: Rift Basin did not have all air units in Arena game mode

KNOWN ISSUES:

• Arena game mode will not start when the Nintendo Joy-cons controller is connected to the computer.
  
• Performance drops may be present with over 400 Alien units present in one session.

We hope this update will excite you about the air units that should be coming to Strategy sometime next month!

Until then, feel free to test them in Arena, let us know your thoughts and we'll see you on Baltarus.

Hi Friendos

Time for another look at all things Friends vs Friends. Everything from fan art, to mayor messages, how Baba gets creases out of laundry, big updates, and everything else in-between.

Hey, laundry is a delicate art, dont'cha know?!

Anyway, today, we're announcing a fun little surprise which will be added in next week...


As we grow and build up Friendtown, it's important we continue to make connections that go beyond our doorstep even while we continue to develop things from the inside.

We've made friends with your friends (who also made friends with our friends and are even friends with friends of friends...still following me?)

So I guess this means we now have ... friends in common. One, in particular, has really helped shape things around here - SMii7Y. We've been so grateful for him spreading the word about Friends vs Friends and sharing his fun with the world that we decided to do something a little bit special.



When you log into Friends vs Friends next week, you'll be gifted a new skin for Moose Salto - the SMii7Y skin! No need for quests or levelling, you can just equip it and see if it makes you as good as SMii7Y. No pressure!

He's certainly left his mark on the world so be sure to tell all your friends. This is just the beginning!

We'll have more to share on this next week.




Speaking of crossing over into your neighbourhood, this week's community spotlight is from Stillwater Casey who are showing off their face painting skills with Donnie B, DJ Newton and Spike Remington.



You look awesome!

Thank you for sharing all your fan art with us. If you've been making some for Friends vs Friends, why not submit it to the fan art category here? We've seen some fantastic pieces out there and some surely worthy winners.


Hey folks, it’s me. The Mayor of Friendtown. We have an absolute emergency on our hands! I think that I *cough cough* caught a cold of some sorts! My life is fading before my ey- oh wait, I had accidentally used Ice Block. Such an honest mistake from an honest Mayor!

I almost feared that I would have to cancel my vacation plans. What do you mean, again, don't you remember my last one got interrupted?! Moose just came back from a break on the island and they sure looked the part with a cool hat and backpack! They said it was the perfect place to go surfing, walk on the beach or contemplate your own existence. These are among my favorite hobbies and I didn't get a chance to do any of them before; I have to go back! I am the Mayor after all, so I can and I will.

Until next time, that’s been me, the Mayor of Friendtown - and you’ve been reading the Mayor’s Message.

- The Mayor of Friendtown

Fixed a sprite in the tutorial that wasn't displaying correctly

Today we announce a very interesting test coming to the Public Test Server, this will not be a test of an upcoming update, rather we are going to test an option for community servers, that will largely change the overall gameplay. Your feedback is extremely important during this test, as it will determine the outcome of development in this direction.

IMPORTANT: If the community likes these changes, we plan to make these options only available to community server admins, Official Servers & Supporter Pack owners will not be affected.

1. Removal of the Safe Zone
   
2. Removal of Green Zone Storage

This will mean that players in Green Zones can now PvP, so if a player wants to take advantage of the traders there, it will come at great risk. Now, nowhere will be safe

With the removal of Safe Zone Storage, it will be much more important for players to construct a base, if they plan to make any long term progression. This also means that the majority of a player's progression can be reset by just one raid, completely raising the stakes of the entire game. We plan to expand the functionality of bases in the future, which should further enhance this type of gameplay.

Remember, these changes will only affect community servers, who can create their own additional rules, adjust settings like raid token drop %, and further customize the experience.

The aim of these changes are to place more importance on a players base, and to make players value each individual life more. Now players won’t have a cushion of Safe Zone cash to fall back on. Moreover, this might help extend the overall gameplay loop, as progression will be slower, and can be reset at any time.

Essentially, you would be raising the stakes, making everything that much more rewarding

Your feedback is extremely important in this test, if we get very negative feedback, we will not spend any more development time with this idea, and you will not see this feature in game. But, if we get positive feedback, then we can consider adding these options into the list of community server features.
