Surprise! It is update time once again. This time, I'm backporting another better design decision from Carnage in Space: Crucible. Thank you, Crucible! The improved feature for today is the screen resolution.
Now, if you go into fullscreen (by pressing F11 or going into the Settings menu), the game should fill up your entire monitor without letterboxing, assuming it's neither an ancient CRT or an ultra-wide display.
I've also included the usual array of small bugfixes and other tweaks.
Enjoy!
-----------------------------------------------
[SYSTEM] Reduced the screen height from 448 to 432 pixels, making the game run at 16:9 resolution. The game is no longer letterboxed and looks smoother when run fullscreen on a monitor with 16:9 resolution.
[MENU] Removed the legacy logon feature
[MENU] Pressing up on "Back" in the Extras menu would get the cursor stuck
[ENEMIES] The truck turrets in LVL5 no longer fire at point blank range
[ENEMIES] Slightly reduced the final boss's health, and slightly increased the health of its chaingun
[ENEMIES] Moledozer will shoot its bomb farther when you're standing right next to it
[GAMEPLAY] The regen accessory no longer works in the boss rush rest area
[LEVEL] Changed one platform in LVL1 from fall-through to solid
Next up
The poll is over, and Tuhrahkkkii is the winner!
With that, Crucible phase 2 has begun.
For more Carnage in Space news, I highly recommend you take a look over on the sequel's devlog:
With the new finalized graphics, that volcano is starting to look a little *spicier*.
I don't know why our spiky boy is so shy about hopping in the magma - those bugs seem to be having the time of their lives!
IT'S HAPPENING.

I guess the answer to last week's question is "at least 4". Not counting the one who died in the last game.
CHAPTER 4 (T) IS DONE!!!
We are now 2/3 of the way to the phase 2 release! I'm very excited to share this with you all soon.
Let it not be said that Nightmare is the only one with a cool air mobility tool!
This is the grappling hook - it lets you snag nearby walls or enemies for a lightning-fast approach! It should make a very versatile tool for Tuhrahkkkii's kit.
READY YOUR WISHLISTS!
This is the boss fight you guys deserve. 
The guy's super tough and will shrug off most of your attacks. To beat him, you have to -
- Well, uh, haven't you been paying attention to the last few posts???
The 2.0 release inches ever closer. To drive home the magnitude of this update, we've got a brand-new logo!
Animation/pixel-art by me; high-res concept by a professional artist.
This stands out a lot better while still keeping the game's identity intact.
What was that about the next chapter getting "heated"?

Volcano mechanics in action! Ignore the obvious placeholder graphics while you try to avoid melting.
