Huzzah! This is the first major-ish update since the full release!
Things of note:
Better gamepad support! By this point you should be able to navigate the entire game (barring login) using just the gamepad.
LVL1 is less likely to get you lost and/or fallen down to earlier in the level.
Enjoy!

In case you missed it - SEQUEL BETA TESTING!
Carnage in Space: Crucible is coming Soon*!
If you'd like to try it early and help me perfect it, read below to join the beta test and score a free copy!
Chapter 4 (K) is DONE! And about time too - that's my longest level to date.
With that, Phase 3 (of 3) Milestone 2 (of 4) is now done! The end of this 7+ year project is finally nearing completion, and I can't wait to share it with you all.
I updated the character select screen again!
I ditched the blurred overlay background for a stylish color-changing gradient, and added a spotlight to justify the players' shadows.
I also combined player & difficulty onto 1 screen for efficiency.
Behold, your reward for beating boss rush - this sick-as-heck 3D cutscene I threw together over the weekend!
Yeah, I know the game is mostly 2D, but I really felt like going way over the top with this game mode. I hope it paid off. 
IT'S HAPPENING.
The sequel to Ignition, Carnage in Space: Crucible, is releasing (in Early Access) on GameJolt and Steam on 6/9/23!

Chapter 6 (K) is DONE! Kodon's story is nearly at a close.
A lot of work has gone into the game in since my last post, but we're deep into SPOILER territory, so all you get is a single out-of-context screenshot.
I'm not sorry.
(So close to release! AAAH!)
Oodles of options!
Accessibility aids aplenty!
I added some more settings lately to toggle distorted graphics, fine-tune the audio mixing, and other stuff. Hopefully this should make the game accessible to more kinds of players.
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:
Some new background elements in Chapter 4 (N). The sky's a little less barren now that there are more floating rocks off in the background.
These also use 3D depth for accurate scaling, parallax scrolling, and distance fog.
I've been retouching several things in the game that could use a little more love before release.
Among these is the nanotech system! You now get a flashy popup (with confetti and everything) when you unlock one, and the icons are also resigned.
