UTOPIA 9 Soylent Pink - The Nourishing Drink!

By Rebecca Smith,
Lunar New Year is at it’s end but fret not, Utopia 9 - A volatile Vacation has a new update ready!

Item Adjustments
Weapons have gone through balance and functionality changes

• The Fast Fingers mutation now works properly.
• The Swap Hands key now swaps the Primary and Secondary attacks on two-handed weapons.
• All Ranged weapons now have a fallback melee attack.
• All attacks with Melee weapons now have a sweet attack effect.
• The Flak Pistol has a new model.
• The Pumpgun’s attack rate is doubled, but damage is halved.
• The Railgun no longer penetrates Shields.
• Leftover damage, from attacks that destroys Shields, damages the bearer.

Improved Controller Support
Game Controller support is improved towards an even smoother experience

• Added dynamic switching between mouse/joystick aiming.
• XBOX controllers now display correct axis and button names.
• Other controllers brings up a prompt for controls setup.

Mutant Behavior
Mutants now behave differently based on their weapon type

• Bullet (Overreacts): Lays down suppressive fire when you take cover
• Energy (Evasive): Fires weapon then moves to a friendly mutant.
• Explosive (Cowardly): Fires weapon then runs for cover.
• Melee (Aggressive): Charges around corners into the unknown.
• Shells (Guerilla): Fires weapon then takes a quick sidestep.
• We plan to expand these behavioural differences even further!

Story Update
We have begun elaborating on the ingame narrative

• Pollen has been replaced with Soylent Pink.
• Added new models and visuals throughout the game.
• Vending Machines can now be destroyed.

When not writing news, she can usually be found sharpening her very, VERY, pointy grammar stick in anticipation of its imminent use. Outside of TSA, TA and TT, she works in an independent game shop so that she can spend all day talking about games too. At home, with a variety of PCs and consoles on hand from which to choose, starting with a ZX Spectrum, games are never far away there either. However, as you're not supposed to have an unhealthy obsession with just a single subject, she also likes to read and dream about owning her own tribe of minions. She'll occasionally go outside.
