Hello everyone,

we got a new update for you filled to the brim with new features, options character, fixes, balancing and much more!

Without any further ado here is the changelog:

CONGLOMERATE 451 - Early Access Build 0.5.0

NEW FEATURES:

• Hack Enemies: now, from the radial menu during combat, you can choose the action "hack enemy" in order to hack the enemy systems!
• Hack Doors: now if during a mission you will find a locked door you will have two options: finding the key or the mechanism to open it OR try to hack the door.
• NEW CHARACTER: Binary! She is a battle-hacker.
• New Perk system: we have heard you and… we worked on the perk system. Now every character has a Rank (from 0 to 3). Every time the character will gain a new Rank, he will receive also a Perk. So… stop double perks, stop same perks on multi-character. From now, a perk is a real reward!
• Special Ability: now every character has a different special ability!
• No more skill points: linked to the new perk system, we rework from scratch also the skill upgrade system. There are no more skill points: to upgrade the skills, you need just the currencies.
• New unlock system for the characters: now the characters are unlocked by the Reputation, and not by the researches.
• New AIM System: now, targeting a specific enemy's body part will have different consequences.
• ALL MUTATIONS: finally, every part of the research center is completed. Now you can unlock everything, also all mutations!

MAJOR FIXES:

• Fixed the bug that rollbacks a mastered skill to a normal skill after an upgrade.
• Fixed the invisible hotspot in the Sanctuary.
• Fixed the negative duration during Diplomat's missions.

MINOR FIXES:

• Now there is a light inside the Elevator.
• Improve the quality of the reflections and the ambient occlusion.
• Now there is no more smoke from the Sentry's guns.
• Improved some tiles in the Sanctuary.

BALANCING:

• Rebalanced the Drone Software costs.

QUALITY OF LIFE:

• Battery icon: now the battery has a specific icon on the map.
