The goal for this iteration was to make the game more stable, playtesting and improving the gameplay with that feedback. It also got a big performance increase in this iteration with three big changes in the simulation.


The logic of storages have been changed, so you have even more possibilities to connect them together. The Problems have been also polished, so it should be more clear why they are not working.

Besides many playtests and bugfixes, there was a big performance increase this iteration. One part was to reorganize the pathfinding algorithm, to have more reusable caches and better paths through big ships.



The other optimization was the person metrics, so what the persons will do automatically. This is now also shown in the UI, including a detailed calculation, so it should be easier to see why the crew is doing what they are doing.



There was an internal change of the construction resources, which makes it now possible to preconfigure everything for interior items that are still in construction.



The priorities got split up into several different ones. They are now separate for construction, maintenance, transport and work, to make it more clear and easier to prioritize them.



The crafting queue is now easier to change, I added a drag drop here including the possibility to replace the current one and throw it away.



There is now also an easy game mode, without fire, less metabolism of the persons, cheaper and more things to buy from earth and other factors that makes it easier for the player.



After some playtest i found that there is a new Tutorial concept needed. The In Game tutorial could not fulfill the requirements and players get lost. The new Tutorial is separate from the regular game now and contains different aspects of the game. This makes it also easier to redo parts of the tutorial later on when having problems.




I also post the progress and more pictures to our Discord:



And don't forget to wishlist and follow us to keep up to date.

- Introducing Boom 3D Headphone EQ:
We have added support for the automatic headphone equalization of over 5000 models of headphones. This will automatically compensate for imperfections in the headphones’ sound reproduction.

- Always show all EQ bands in Advanced Mode:
Certain frequency bands of the equalizer would be hidden unless hovered upon with the cursor. We have now changed this to ensure that all the frequency bands are always visible.

- Fixed a crash found during launch

We hope you enjoy these new features! Please feel free to reach out to us at boom3@globaldelight.com with feedback and suggestions for future updates! :)

Maintenance has ended as of July 4th at 0:30 am PDT.

Greetings from the Onigiri Service Team.

We will be conducting maintenance on July 3rd at 10:00 pm PDT.
This maintenance is expected to finish at 1:00 am PDT on July 4th.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

New Skill System

Every time you pass a mainline level, you will receive one skill point.
The mech's skill tree is divided into three schools:

1. Throttling Mode: Mechs enter Throttling Mode every once in a while, at which time energy consumption is drastically reduced, and skill upgrades also allow mechs in Throttling Mode to gain other additional effects.

2. Quantum Teleportation: Use SHIFT to teleport the mech in the forward direction, which greatly improves the flexibility and survivability of the mech, and skill upgrades can shorten the cooldown time of Quantum Teleportation or increase the teleportation distance.

3. Meat Grinder Attack: The Meat Grinder can automatically attack the enemies it touches, this attack does not consume energy, through skill upgrades, you can increase the damage of the Meat Grinder Attack as well as additional effects.

🌾 Can you smell the fresh veggies? Feel the dampness of wet grass and hear the sound of animals' hooves in the distance?

Yes! We’re heading to the countryside again!

You've often visited villages during your service, greeted with open... hearts. But this time, XX says it will be different… An ultraorthodox village has joined your flock. 🤔

What does that even mean? And could the most devout and orderly community raise the freest spirits?

Now that more players have broken through and completed mission X, it is time to explain the new Armor Mod option that can be accessed at the Select Heli screen.

Whenever a Cat Type has this option (by beating mission X with that Cat regardless of continues), players can increase the amount of starting armor by 1 for every USER credit in stock by pressing up. This is the secondary function of those USER credits that have been accumulating. Why is this useful? 1 credit for 1 armor is much more expensive than continuing which gives 3 armor instead, but this armor boost qualifies for all criteria requiring a 1CC (one credit clear), including achievements and entry into mission 9! This is known as an "Assisted 1CC".



How does this work? For example, assuming a USER credit stock of 50, if a player knows that it takes on average around 10 continues to beat mission X, that equals 10 x 3 = 30 additional armor to do it with the Assisted 1CC. Simply increase the armor during the Select Heli screen until it reads 33. Mods can only go as high as there are USER credits. In Team play, both players share the same USER credits pool.

However, what if the game goes wrong and the player runs out of armor before mission X? Continuing will start with the default 3 armor and the 1CC is no longer valid. Perhaps using another 10 USER credits to get a starting armor of 43 is safer. Perhaps it's better to stock up more USER credits before attempting this. Do note that should the player end up completing mission X with armor mods remaining, they are not refunded as credits. Also, just like infinite armor in Trial or Training mode, there is no visual indication what the armor amount is except for the green armor color that appears when total armor is above 3.

Thus, it is up to the player's confidence and risk tolerance to add more armor using Assisted 1CC. Everyone will be able to get all the achievements using this feature. Similar to Auto Bomb, using an Assisted 1CC disqualifies the run from online leaderboards. There is also no mission clear bonus when armor is above 3. Players should turn off these assists when they are skilled enough and play the high score end game.

Now go get that 1CC!

Hello, survivors!

We continue to share the thermal maps that show where your armoured vehicles most often get blown to pieces during the fierce battles in the Wasteland. This time, let’s take a look at the “Fortress”, “Chemical plant” and “Old town” maps.

The thermal maps show only the statistics of real players with no PS limitations. The activity of the AI-controlled vehicles is not taken into account.


When it comes to this map, everything is quite simple. There is a fortress in the center of the battlefield, and the rest doesn’t matter. And nobody knows what is hidden inside the castle. A great load of crosscrowns? A new relic? A promo code for an unlimited premium subscription? One thing is clear — the thermal points are positioned as if the castle is occupied by the defenders and the walls of the fortress are being besieged.


At the “Chemical plant” map, the activity is scattered. The battles in the middle of the map are a little more intense, but not all of them occur in the same place. The survivors want to control the entire area of the plant and capture three control points at once. That’s why players engage in small battles all over the map.


The activity in the town is so dense that entire heatwaves, not just dots, have appeared on the map. In the town’s central square, everything is painted a vicious red color. In the poor “Old Town”, battles are fought over every meter.

That’s all for now. We have many more interesting thermal maps that we will share with you next time. Good luck in battles!
