2nd resource type, new units & buildings
Epsilon Indi » Devlog
This is a major update tackling all the points that where brought up in the last feedback round. There are now two types of attacking units: The tier 1 "Railgun Buggy" and the tier 2 "Plasma Thrower". This creates a first strategic minigame of rushing with tier 1 vs. fast tech to tier 2.
Gameplay
Energy Refinery The new energy refinery can be used to gather the new "Energy Plasma" resource. Constructs Energy Gatherers. |
Energy Gatherer Collect Energy Plasma from an "Alien Energy Artifact". It can be built from the "Energy Refinery". |
||
Plasma Thrower Factory The first Level 2 building that requires both Dark Alloy and Energy Plasma to build. Constructs the Plasma Thrower heavy attack vehicle. |
Plasma Thrower A heavy assault vehicle that cannot shoop up. The "Plasma Thrower" starts with 2 armor, making it an ideal counter to "Railgun Buggies". |
||
Energy Artifact A mysterious alien artifact where "Energy Plasma" can be extracted. This is the only known source of this extremely valuable material of unmatched energy density. |
