Merry Christmas everyone!

With Update 1.50, I've brought what I hope to be a much cleaner looking main menu screen to Rock 'N Roll. You can now select everything from one main menu screen, including a new tutorial as well as the Hard Rock game mode. The second menu which previously was used to select the normal or hard rock mode has been completely removed.

In the Normal "Play Game!" mode, you'll now notice a MUCH faster and more responsive ship than ever before. Rotation speed while stopped has been more than doubled and rotating while thrusting has been increased almost 500% from what was previously experienced. Thrusting speed has also been increased by about 30%. Keep in mind that further rotation speed can be purchased at the Global Upgrade Station between waves of asteroids.

An all new tutorial mode has been added, and is just in an infant state currently. Right now, it works, but just allows you to move your ship around an empty screen and press either the controller Y button or the Q button on your keyboard to exit. Soon, a full fledged tutorial will be added to walk new players into this game and help teach basic game mechanics, strategies, and features.

Scoring is also likely to be completely changed, especially the saving the Earth scoring. It will likely be drastically reduced so that it will be possible for a player who plays extremely well but doesn't save the earth to score higher than someone else who might not play nearly as well but get lucky with their G.E.O.S. gem placement over the reflections of Earth at end game.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Due to drastic changes in both gameplay and scoring planned for the main game mode of this game, ALL High scores for the main game mode will be deleted with Version 2.0.. likely to hit sometime around or soon after the New Year (2018) hits. While erasing peoples hard earned high scores is never something I'd want to do, I feel this will be necessary due to such drastic gameplay and scoring changes planned for Rock 'N Roll. Please note that achievements earned will NOT be deleted, only high scores and likely on the normal game mode scores when Version 2.0 is implemented.

Update 1.50 is the beginning of a series of patches planned to overhaul Rock 'n Roll into a game that offers a more enjoyable experience for those who purchase and play it.

Another change coming in the very near future is end level bosses that will require your full attention once you shoot that last asteroid on each wave. You'll need your increased maneuverability to survive and keep all of those reources you collected and want to sell!

Feedback is very important, so please feel free and let me know how you feel about this update and the changes already made and planned as well as any suggestions or ideas you might have!

Thank you, and Happy Holidays to you all! I truly hope that everyone is blessed and happy out there as we move into a new year.
