Tiny Pixel Planets Title Update 4!
After more than 6 months, this massive update is finally ready! Here is a list of everything this title update has to offer!
Galaxy Navigation
Prepare to explore the galaxy with the new galaxy navigation system! Travel from star to star exploring new planets. Use the new marker system to be able to mark your planets to warp travel to them at any point in the galaxy. This is truly the biggest feature in the update and completely changes how the game is played. Gone are the days of limited resources and refreshing saves until you get the perfect system.
Versitalis and the Economy
Introducing the new premade planet that is generated in every new save. Versitalis is the capital planet of the Blue Jays, and your one stop planet for the economy. Located on the planet are two shops; Lily mart and Skip's stones. Here you can sell and buy useful resources and become rich.
Farming
The most effective way to make money in this new update, is to farm. Using the new hoes and watering cans, build the best farm you can. You can also eat the crops or cook them into food to restore health.
New enemies
Introducing the space squid and rockius. The space squid can be found in asteroids, and flies around looking for prey, which happens to be you. Space squids are far faster and have more health compared to the slorg, so be careful when exploring asteroids. Rockius can be found on stone planets, and is slightly harder than slorgs. These creatures have a outer shell that blends into the surrounding, giving them a good amount of health. They roll around, and have a slight speed boost when they first spot a player.
