The REAL* End (v0.10.0)


Here it is, folks. The FINAL content update. The Level Select screen is finally all filled in!

Boss Rush

You’ve proven you have what it takes to face each of Ignition’s varied bosses individually – now how about all in a row? Can you stay alive long enough to reach the end, and irrefutably prove yourself the greatest warrior in the galaxy?

Either way, it will be entertaining to watch.

Gun Hitflashes

Remember when I added hitflashes to melee weapons? Weren’t they such a satisfying addition?

No? Well, whatever. Now guns have them too.

Don’t think that’s exciting enough? Then try shooting the Gunship in LVL8 with your beam cannon. OR… look at the screenshot below.

Fixes

Lots of stuff got polished up this update in anticipation of the impending 1.0 release. This includes, but is not limited to:

  • New SFX that plays when you buy and equip gear in the Armory.

  • At long last, a new big explosion sprite. At long last, every sprite in the game has been updated to fit the game’s style.
    *Fixed using the mouse to select things in the Armory

  • So much more – see below!

Well, that’s it for now. The next update, barring minor bugfix updates, will be the final release. The big one point oh. The golden master.

Big thanks to all of you beta players for sticking with me! Hope to see you again on the other side of the upcoming release!

Until then,
HUZZAH!

WE'VE GOT A RELEASE DATE, BABY!

It's been a LOOOONG time coming - this game's been in development for OVER 8 YEARS and I couldn't be more excited to share it with you all in just 24 days!

HEEEEEE'S BAAAAAAAAAAAACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For those who don't know him, this is Crimson. Nightmare's darker side. The most powerful being in the setting.

If you want to fight him, you're going to have a very, very bad time.

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.

IT'S HAPPENING.

The sequel to Ignition, Carnage in Space: Crucible, is releasing (in Early Access) on GameJolt and Steam on 6/9/23!

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand we're still at it!

Special number 2: Javelin Fusillade.

That's quite a lot of javelins. And a lot of explosions. I don't think this guy is ever going to calm down.

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.

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!

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:

BOOM.

This is Crimson's final attack, Entropy Bomb.

This is what happens when Crimson runs out of patience and is done playing with you.

I'd wish you good luck, but I don't think that's going to help.

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.
