Added 3 trap types to the game

Acid: Deals continuous contact damage

Electric: Deals no damage, but stuns & knocks back

Laser: Cycles ON/OFF—contact while ON deals damage & knockback

Promise kept, just ordered it for $20. I have known you since at least 2001, not going to use your awesome tool and not pay for it.

Retro game devs need to check this out!

The sharp-eyed may have noticed in previous posts a Halloween tab for Ark Skins. It was empty until recently, but given the time of year we thought we could show them off.

While working on skins we realized we had an issue, namely the point defense and weapon emplacements did not match the skin. So we had to go back and design a bunch of new variations.

Ark Defender Skins In Ark Defender, skins have not mechanical effect (that's all the different ark types) they just look snazzy for the snazzily inclined.

Nothing new to show this week, so just footage The Mega Defense Keep. Found crashed on a barren planet, it was repaired with Terran Republic technology, but still holds mysterious technological secrets.

My game "inkatana" !
Added slowmotion and changed base enemy sprites!
Do you think 2d action platformers can still make it out there? :)

No new features for the week, so just some footage of the Battleship ark. Originally a Terran Republic military ship, it has reduced manufacturing ability, but more weapon ports and gunship support.

Confession! Sometimes things that would be cut instead get added because we need a media post. E.g., recently, the Fungal Whale. A cool boss, but it would’ve been cut if we didn’t have an empty post slot

In contrast to yesterday’s post the Vortex Torpedo of the Hangarians in the Waiting for Laouylik update kind of just worked. We had a visual look we wanted and it worked first try.

A new little game I’m working on. I felt like playing Bomberman and thought, “Why not make something inspired by it?"

Ark Defender Faction Boss: Hangarian Siege Cruiser
Ark Defender Faction Boss: Hangarian Siege Cruiser For the Star Trek fans, the Hangarian Siege Cruiser draws on the Klingon Negh'Var for inspiration with a T-like design and big wing mounted disrupters. The forward engines are to help with its turning speed.
