Dev Log: Combat and Customization Update is OUT!

Hello explorers!

We know we thank you all A LOT for your thoughts and feedback about Halcyon 6, but we mean it. We’ve been reading and listening and here’s what we heard: you dig Halcyon 6 but [insert thing here] could be soooo much cooler! After addressing your feedback on resource collection in v1.0.0.4 - Hello Satellite Drones! - our focus was on combat.

The Combat and Customization Update is here! Our main goals for this combat update:

• We wanted to address some of the player concerns regarding space combat, specifically the complaints about how repetitive and grindy it can get in the latter half of the game.
• Increase challenge and make combat more strategic and varied
• Reduce grind, reduce punishment for losses and mistakes
• Improve player agency, make player choices matter

To that end, we’re super stoked about the major changes you’ll see in v1.1.0.0:

Ship Customization!

You can now customize Terran starships, completely changing their power load outs to create your own unique fleet compositions

New Officer Cloning Chamber!

Clone your dead Officers and bring them back, almost as good as when they died, with the help of Crew “volunteers”

Colony Facility Rebuilding!

You can now rebuild ruined colony facilities from the View Sector screen
