Contrary to (understandable) popular belief, we are toiling away on the next build. I’ll try to get a series of posts going, each talking about a new feature or fix already completed for the upcoming version.

Concrete sprayer at work

Today’s featured… uh, feature is: sticky particles! Yes, now some of the spray from the concrete gun actually stick to walls and ceilings, as well as blood splashes, etc.

This enables you to reinforce tunnels and caverns you’ve dug in the bare dirt. Just spray some concrete up on the walls and it will set into much harder material to make intrusions difficult for your enemies!

    I havent seen any sprayers that stick… if someone has a concrete sprayer type weapon that sticks, would they please post it, cause I dont want to wait for the “no build 21 in sight” concrete gun.

    and about the glows, I just meant that it was probably not a vanilla weapon because it glowed like no weapon that is included with the game.

    Impressive site for this game guys! I remember when I was sent an early build and thought aah what kind of crap is this but it kicks some serious butt now!

    Don’t worry about it.

    Also, I got the impression you’d be posting about new features every couple of days. It’s been like a week. WHERE’S OUR NEW FEATURES. >:(

    Well, you can make things that get pinned. But technically the pinned object is just floating in the air, not stuck to something. I’m hoping that the concrete gun stuff will stick to people…

    That means that you can create a gigantic walking concrete behemoth!!!
