A small update. - You can now rate the game from Settings. The game may also ask once, with Apple's own rating prompt, after a boss kill or a big bank. - Enter Code now opens Apple's redemption sheet for App Store offer codes. The old code box has been removed. - Small wording fixes on the world map and in the workshop. - Links to the game can now open the Echo Contracts board.

The Mechanical Tentacles refit is free, and it is the reason for this update. FREE TENTACLE REFIT Four arms that reach out, clamp on and recoil, with their own travel and contact motion. If you already own the tentacles you keep them and the refit costs nothing. If you do not, they are still unlocked with Override Tokens you earn by playing. ECHO CONTRACTS Replayable echoes of bosses you have already beaten. Three ship in this update: Vance, P-3 and Mira. Each has three medal objectives and a PRACTICE run that hands every player the same fixed loadout. An echo never changes your bridges, your bosses or your ending. AUTHORED BOSS FIGHTS P-3 alternates a ring pulse and a locked cone around three arena relays, and breaking the lit relay opens a window that costs it. Mira turns a six slot gravity field with one safe wedge you can ride. Both commit to an attack and show it on the floor before it lands. COMBAT MODULES AND STANCES One module slot, filled by three modules you earn from progress your save already recorded. Servo Grip slows what it touches. Stagger Capacitor charges on sustained fire and pins on a telegraphed discharge. Coolant Vent trades a redline stop for cadence on the Continuous Laser. Focus and Sweep re-shape a volley without changing its damage. NEW ENEMY ROLES Lane shooters that show the band before the shot, shielded anchors you have to flank, and swarmers that are only dangerous in a pack. A CLEARER GAME A PAUSED hub that reaches Loadout, Missions, Map, Store, Codex and Settings in one tap. The mission log is four tabs behind one ready badge. The map separates walking there, building the bridge and paying to teleport, so a tap can no longer spend by accident. The defeat card now reports exactly what is waiting at your wreck. SETTINGS Separate music and effects volume, reduce motion, shake and flash sliders, damage number density, a text size setting, striped danger bars so a warning is not carried by colour alone, and a joystick you can resize, fade and move to either hand. CARGO YOU CAN TRUST Overflow past the cap is named as REMOTE TRANSFER instead of quietly landing in the wallet, and banking pays a 10 percent extraction bonus on newly collected salvage. VIP DAYS ACCRUE Days you missed inside a paid subscription period are credited when you come back, with an itemised receipt of exactly what was paid. FREE THINGS TO EARN The Overdrive track pays three mech appearances and a companion for progress you already made. It costs nothing and it sells nothing. OPTIONAL, AND SAID PLAINLY Three new appearance packs are optional and cosmetic. They change nothing about damage, drops, repair or collection, and each one can be previewed on your own mech before you buy. Your save carries over. Same wallet, same cargo, same upgrades, same unlocks, same weapons.
