Introduction
Once again, we wish to thank all who support Spacebit, our first Major Update on Desura has been reached in days. We hope you enjoy the update as we greatly apprieciate your support.
Future
We hope to bring an even bigger update next week which runs rings around this major update. We hope to add Spaceships, Buildings, and even the start of AI army's!
Tips and Hints
Playing this stable version is very different from the current version on Desura. thats why we have the Tips and Hints section to help you with some of the things that changed in the game you would not have known prior to this massive update!
- You need to create a melee table to construct melee weapons and a ranged table to make ranged weapons.
- You need a campfire to cook!! A campfire also increases the line of sight.
- Defense reduces the damage you take from monsters. This does not include damage from debuffs.
- You have a lot of new Debuffs and Buffs now
- A lot of new Items to craft, wear and use!
- Don't swim too long or you will drown!
- Lava will put you on fire.
- You can collect liquids, they mostly drop bubbles
- The forum has lots of support and many questions have already been answered!
Jeno's Art Development Section
Jeno is the 2D Artist behind the art you see in the inventory and action bars etc. We decided to showcase the mass amount of work and effort he puts into his artwork!! Take it away Jeno!
Jeno, you put images and stuff here talk about your art!
*Note from Jeno: This is entirely Ben's idea, personally, I believe my 'art' is very basic, but Ben really thinks it would be a good idea, so I'll be putting up some compilations of the icons and ingame items that I have made :P . (you can view an unstretched version of the image in the 'images' section here)
Team and Development News
We have a new member that has joined our ranks. He fills in the position of concept artist as well as designing a new look and artistic feel for Spacebit. Thomas has been helping with the managing of the Forum, where he is known as TwitchyFireStick, as well as other areas, but recently he has decided to join us in our endevour as he starts to draw some amazing artwork!
We also have awesome custom made music on the way that a hidden member has been secretly making in the deep dark corner of the Spacebit Abyss!!!! Stay tuned for some unique ambience and soundtrack examples of his work which we will display at www.spacebitz.com and on the IndieDB section.
