Phobos Down 1.0.2 released
This is a maintenance update to Phobos Down.
You might wonder what happened to version 1.0.1. It does exist but because it was mostly about enabling the mobile version and improving the arcade cabinet version, I skipped the update on PC. This version now contains all the changes done since version 1.0.0.
Changes from 1.0.0 to 1.0.1:
- Fixed errors in log when starting game runs without challenges from server.
- Log usage statistics (arcade build only).
- Show possible update message from server in main menu.
- Show notification in main menu if a new version is available.
- Enlarge fonts and scale UI elements properly in mobile mode.
- Moved equipment level indicator next to score indicator.
- Show score indicator guide texts in arcade mode too.
- Made guide overlays slightly translucent.
- Added separate guide overlay for mobile mode.
- Fixed info text not always getting hidden when leaving main menu.
- New better looking game icon.
- Default to low controller vibration in mobile mode.
Changes from 1.0.1 to 1.0.2:
- Fixed long mission and operation info titles getting clipped.
- Enlarged the touch area for weapon management button.
- Made the terrain slightly flatter to avoid random unwalkable slopes.
- Allow skipping mission and game completion info box animations.
- Changed controller guide touchscreen button icon and made it blink while the guide is visible.
I'm currently not aware of any significant open issues except for some compatibility issues with low-end mobile hardware that I can't fix. Let me know if you encounter any problems.
This update is available on Itch.io, Steam and Google Play
