This update focuses on increasing the survivability and effectiveness of defensive structures.

This update contains changes requested by the community and some harder bug fixes.GeForce NowOmen should be available on this platform now.

- v1.1.3 Hotfix - Northwind Balance Update - 16 August 2026
This patch focuses on the second boss of the game called Northwind. Normal difficulty is supposed to provide a challenge while still being approachable for many players. The intent for the second act boss is that you might need to do the act 2 questline and get together at least a few blue items but I don't want players spending an insane amount of time grinding in act 2 in order to beat this boss.If you feel like you were happy with the difficulty that was present before, there's hard mode and very hard mode waiting for you! But I also feel like he's still a decent challenge even after this update.Let me know your thoughts after fighting Northwind.
- v1.1.2 Hotfix with more CRT Effect Options - 15 August 2026
Couple of fixes before I focus on the bigger quality of life and content updates.CRT EffectsDisabling the CRT warp will now do so throughout the rest of the game, not just during gameplay. So this applies to cutscenes and stat screens too.CRT scanlines can now be used even if the CRT warp is disabled. So you can modify that option separately.Bug Fixes Some weapons that were not able to shoot down mines, missiles, and asteroids can now do so like the sunburst laser lance and arc thrower, along with a few others.Vaults no longer show you blueprints that you previously unlocked if you managed to unlock a blueprint earlier in your run.Happy Omening yall.

Some users, especially with laptops or handhelds reported poor performance and high VRAM usage.This update reduces VRAM usage by almost half in some areas while not noticeable decreasing quality.
