Hey there spacefarers!
Starwatch Academy has been updated to version 0.4.0.
This release contains new content, the introduction of the combat system for Act 2, system changes, updates to orientation week and an accumulation of minor changes done over the course of the past year. To prevent any further delay, we chose to cut some content out in favor of releasing a stable build, so there will be a new release soon to reintroduce the cut content initially meant to be in this version and fix any issue that may be reported by players.
Thanks to all of you that voiced their appreciation for Starwatch despite our struggle to get the new version out. Your moral support has been more valuable than you think.
Have fun!
Content: Added the beginning of Campaign Act 2.
Content: Added 2 crew quests aboard the Eos.
Feature: Added the combat system to the game with three combat training programs to choose from: Enforcer, Vanguard and Warden.
Feature: Added a "font size" option in the accessibility section of the settings menu with three options to choose from.
Feature: A new setting option named "Fast Combat" has been added to the game. Turning it on will cause combat turns to be played at 200% speed.
