This week I&#8217;m mostly going to be working on recording all your lovely Survival mode hiscores, Steam achievement integration, and possibly putting Sandbox mode in if there&#8217;s time.<\/p>\n<p>Someone clever has noticed that it&#8217;s a total waste of time actually planting more than a single refinery before level 5 (just to actually start the aliens coming). In fact it&#8217;s probably not even worth bothering to research them until level 5 though the game does sort of hint at it being important. Hm. But then you can get a bit of a headstart with the efficiency research. Decisions, decisions! You know, I have no idea myself what the best path through this game actually is. Survival mode hiscores will reveal all.<\/p>\n<h4>Bugs Fixed<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Fixed: crash researching lasers and disruptors<\/li>\n<li>Fixed: powerup counters appearing when collecting a powerup when the HUD is flipped down<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Balance<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Collectors now $500<\/li>\n<li>Cooling towers now $500<\/li>\n<li>Difficulty now slighty biased in favour of cash in the bank (ie. the more you hoard instead of use, the harder it gets)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Internal<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Halved streaming audio buffer size as it doesn&#8217;t seem to have had any effect<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just a quick update to say I&#8217;ve patched Revenge of the Titans to v1.80.4, mainly to fix that crash bug you all noticed when researching lasers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-813","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-diary","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.puppygames.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/813"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.puppygames.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.puppygames.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.puppygames.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.puppygames.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=813"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.puppygames.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/813\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":815,"href":"https:\/\/www.puppygames.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/813\/revisions\/815"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.puppygames.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=813"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.puppygames.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=813"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.puppygames.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=813"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
