Post news Report RSS Gravity Hauler 0.25.1, for freedom and money

Many changes after a month without a update. I started to remove the "mobile style" linearity by adding planets, contracts and money. There is a lot of new levels and game elements too.

Almost a month without update. I am busy these days for next update of Dark Frontier.

Many changes and new content. The main feature is the addition of money into the game. After complete each level you will gain money (half if is already completed), and you must expend it to unlock new Regions and Ships and Ship Upgrades . Money could give more freedom in the game play that a fixed sequence of levels and unlock. You didn't imagine how many times I lost trying to figure out good balancing in prices to become at most, acceptable.

Next. I decide to change the menus to give a more felling of space transport company that a sequence of levels. Instead a list of buttons, you have a map to travel between planets (Regions) and each planet have contracts (levels). This will open the door for the semi-random levels.

A lot of new levels have been added (totalling 69) and spllited into 5 regions. Each one with some objective focus.

Basic - Simple levels where player could learn how to play and some game elements.
Deliver - Deliver boxes between depots, from small to heavy, the basic boxes and special ones.
Building - Pile boxes and place it with precision.
Hostile - Different objectives, but more with some hostile elements like meteors.
Challenge - Some crazy levels with some challenge element that I didn't know where to place.

The boxes now could have 4 different types of materials. They are created to give a little more of change in gameplay.

Basic

In the hostile region you can found theses types of death obstacles.

Crystal - Death on touch
Geysers - They blow air and if get you unprepared could be deadly
Meteors - Death from sky
Civilian Ships - Death from the sides

Finally. I started to add some gui indicatos that help player navigation and will be available as ship modules.

Indicator - A arrow that indicate where is your next objective, good for big levels.
Alert Warning - Give information about danger objects outside the screen like civilian ships and meteors
Tractor Beam - Bring to ship objects in collect levels.

Last and more importante. I have no idea what will happens with your game progress in this version. I recommend to reset it in options. I will try to change the save mechanic in next release so the progress could be auto updated.
