We're loading up to get ready for the Windows release of Space Ranger, and got a lot of cool features planned for both this and future releases - so here's an update of what's cooking!
New UFO bosses
We're adding several new UFO boss types, each having its own behaviour - like the Stealth Boss, firing torpedos, disappearing and reappering.

The level editor is getting a major makeover, and tons of features are added for you to play around with!
- brand new, easy user interface
- change alpha level, color, positions, depth and time-to-live for added design control
- copy/paste functions for enemy and fluff spawners
- added in new UFO formation objects
- new text message object - let's you create custom messages for the player
UFO formations
Now you can create UFO formations, and it's possible to combine all formation types and UFO types - so you can create some really interesting attack formations.
The Alien Base
Everyone needs a home, and so does the aliens - we started building a base for them - and for you to destroy.. Here's a prototype shot:
Planet Ground Levels
We started building the blocks for creating some nice ground levels, so you can create some even more interesting missions...
