settings (it replaces the keyboard layout selection, which was not relevant
anymore)

FAT.32 will now explain to you what items are during the introduction
level
You can pause and restart / exit in the level selection screen (we will

Feedback are disabled in this build due to broken non-qwerty keyboard
detection, it will come back soon

to avoid any overlap with FAT.32 explanations
Renamed "GUN.1" & "GUN.2" to "GUN.L" & "GUN.R" to better match the

 Fixes:
Fixes item stats not scaling correctly like described in Beta 32
changelog

Beta 32 27th May 2016

Changes:
Fortress shield EP consumption is now a multiplicative value of your EP
regeneration (x1.5 without considering Core bonus), this fixes an issue where the
shield could be held forever with enough EP regeneration
Item bonus to stats (e.g. Skill power, Skill recharge, Special cost,
etc.) now scale with the progression (e.g. before the first boss, stats should be
about 1-10%, while end-game bonus should be near 15-25%)

aggressive, and drop more repair packs

more aggressive

Fixes:

hardware problems)

Beta 29 6th May 2016

New:
Nemesis system: the last enemy who killed you will come back in the
same level as a buffed elite and will drop all your previous equipped items
Save files have been moved to a different folder (it previously was the
game folder, and don't worry, the game will try to move you saves automatically):
- Windows: "%USERPROFILE%/AppData/LocalLow/Flying Oak
Games/NeuroVoider"
- OS X: "~/Library/Application Support/Flying Oak
Games/NeuroVoider"
- Linux/SteamOS: "~/.neurovoider"
Steam Cloud has been enabled to sync these folders

EP
New music tracks from Dan Terminus: "Heavy Artillery" (boss music) and
"Tuned to a Dead Channel" (Station environment)
The game now has a proper main menu (locked menus are not yet
implemented features)

Changes:
Changes to the difficulty and how the game scales enemies and items
generation:
- difficulty scaling is now exponential instead of linear, which
means that the game gets harder less quickly in its first loop, but NG+ will get
challenging way more faster past second loop
- bosses HP have been greatly reduced (we'll rework the AI in the
future update)
- items generation also uses an exponential model, which means
that numbers (inc. boosting) should be progressive, instead of being the same no
matter the progression
Auto-loot option has been removed, auto-looting is now always enabled,
even in multiplayer (we are working on a new loot fightning feature)
Frost barrels in Frosbite now have 0 damage and only freeze

Fixes:

New:
If your computer is not compatible with the game or if files are
corrupted, the game will try to display a comprehensive message to tell you what
went wrong

Changes:
Transport "recoil reduction" property has been replaced by an overheat
reduction property
Many changes to the item Boost system:
- you can boost an item 5 times
- the cost for boosting increase at each new boost
- boosting can now enhance most of an item properties (and no
longer only HP or EP)
- the higher the boost stage, the higher the values (e.g. first
stage of a Transport will only slightly increase HP, but the fifth stage increases
HP, Speed and Overheat at once)
- dropped items are a bit less powerful now, but boosting items
is a bit cheaper and more powerful
- scraping boosted items will now refund you for half the scrap
spent in upgrades
Reboot RNG now also reboots special levels peculiarities and increase
the scraps bonus
Scraping items when playing in multiplayer gives more scraps (to
compensate the number of players over the loot quantity)

Fixes:
Fixes restart crashing the game

Fixes level properties bar color when a property goes behind 6
Fixes max HP and EP not updating correctly in the inventory recap when
boosting items

max HP

Beta 26 15th April 2016

New:
Level reveal option has been replaced by a new feature called "Reboot
RNG" which refresh the level selection at the cost of scraps. Rebooting the levels
has a chance to produce level stats above their maximum of 5, and it keeps
increasing if you reboot them more than once per level. This also affects special
levels.
Special levels now have unique peculiarities which can be of the
following:
- Self-destructing: a countdown will appear and the level must be
finished before it reaches 0 (the time is dependent of the level size)
- Super-Elites everywhere: nothing but red enemies will populate
the level
- Pitch black: the level will have no lights (though enemies and
bullets emit light)
Special levels always have their stats maxed out (size, loot &
difficulty)

Changes:
The level reveal system has been removed (and replaced by the reboot
system described above)
The default weapons of each classes have been changed, they now all
start with an Auto-Gun and the following:

- Fortress: Rocket Launcher
Rampage can now move while using its special and also has a 30%
movement speed bonus
Skipping a level doesn't increase the difficulty anymore
Scraps bonus for completing a special level has been increased by 50%
(it scales up with the difficulty)
Mini-map has been removed from left stick buttons and added to the B
button (and it is still available with the Back button)
Boss fights:
- Bosses now drop 6 to 12 items per players (was 2 to 5 before)
- More small enemies will spawn, but they now drop repair packs
- Crystals dropped have been increased
All classes now have the same movement speed (based on the Dash speed)
EMP duration has been increased on elites and bosses
The hole design of the Lab and Sub environments has been changed to be
more visible
Enemy bullets will now always be drawn above any other bullets or
explosions
The Unstable skill has been changed to avoid the following skill:
Jackpot, Loaded, Hardcore, Repair.All (only if solo), Reboot Sequence (only if
solo)

Fixes:
Fixes the shadow of a Transport sprite
Fixes having more than one special levels per boss phase (should be
limited to 1)
Fixes wall being invisible during boss intro when there is no light
Fixes Fortress shield dealing damages to players and enemies
Fixes lasers using 2x more EP when using the Rampage special
Fixes drop names alignment for players 2 & 4

Beta 25 8th April 2016

New:
Level stats (size, difficulty & loot) are now hidden and must be
revealed by using scraps (the 1st reveal is free)
You can now skip levels with skip tokens, but bosses are not skippable
Special levels will now appear (one per boss segment). These are extra
hard levels but awards you with a skip token and extra scraps. Right now special
levels are only more difficult, but in future updates they will have some
perculiarities (e.g. a level which is about to auto-destruct, a level with nothing
but elites, etc.)
Loadings now have a dedicated screen just after the level selection.
The game previously streamed most the content to speed up loadings, but this was
causing some issues, hence we moved loadings and made previews of the environment
to come along with tips.

Changes:
Boss arenas have been modified to be less tricky and new ones have been
added
Berserk is now an active skill which recharges with kills
Fortress super-shield now consumes 87.5 EP/s (was 100)
Rampage special has a slightly better EP regeneration bonus
Core Special EP reduction bonus now has a range of 5%-30% (was 10%-50%)
Splash damages now have a minimum of 1 damage point if you are in the
explosion radius (it previously could be 0 if the explosion was small enough)
A couple Transport items for the machine gun family have new sprites

Fixes:
Fixes the feeling of choppiness when there is too many explosions
Fixes Core Special EP reduction for Rampage which was increasing the
cost instead of lowering it
Fixes some loot and enemy sprites color / alignment
Fixes upgraded item refund not scaling with item upgrades

Known issues:
Mouse may stutter on OS X
Playing with multiple gamepads on Linux / SteamOS may expose wrong
button mappings

New:
Boss weak spots now have an outline to better spot them
The game will now display the controls upon your first game (this is
temporary while we work on a proper tutorial, and players who played the alpha may
see this message)

Changes:

The game doesn't check anymore if a new version has released (every

number of player
Nuke and railgun super elites (red) damages have been halved

Fixes music volume changing by itself

Alpha 23 25th March 2016

Changes:
Boss battles have been reworked:
- bosses now have an armor that must be destroyed before you can
really damage them
- to damage the armor, you will have to hit their weak spots
- once the armor is destroyed, the boss shuts down and is
vulnerable for a few seconds (during which it repairs its armor)
- if the boss has fully repaired its armor before you destroyed
it, it powers up again with a new weak spot to hit
- depending on the boss phase, normal enemies may spawn to
protect the boss (and it goes up to super-elites in the highest difficulty,
particularly when the boss is vulnerable)
There is now 4 levels between each boss instead of 5
Most boss arenas have been modified to accomodate these changes (they
got bigger)
Increased time between each explosion freeze
Trashing "other classes" items now trashes items with a different class
from the one equipped (previously different from the class of the selected item)

Fixes:
Fixes feedback panel background
Fixes level completion being glitched after a boss
Fixes Forge not dropping golden items

Alpha 22.1 21st March 2016

Fixes:
Fixes game crashing at launch on OS X if launched from Steam

10MB less of RAM, wooo)

 Fixes the in-game interface to display RB as skill button instead of RT

Alpha 22 18th March 2016

New:
Elites enemies now have a chance to drop instant-repair packs! Drop
chance is dependent to player's current HP (the lower the HP, the higher the
chance) and repair packs will disappear if not looted fast enough.
Skills have been revamped! Half of the skills have been removed to
introduce new ones:

regeneration
Unstable: you start every level with a random skill

Changes:

crystals or by killing enemies (it depends on the skill)
Crystals are no more relevant to level completion, the main objective
is now to destroy all reactors and the interface has been changed accordingly
Skill recharge bar is now animated when the skill is ready and displays
the key to use it
The "destroy" label on reactors is now more visible / not affected by
the ambiant ligthning anymore

New:
Introduction of the "Forge" menu! You can now use scraps to create
random rare items.
You can now "Boost" items to enhance their HP/EP/DMG in exchange of
some scraps. This option replaces the "Share" option (which has been moved, see
changes). Boosting items is still a bit rough (unbalanced), we will polish it in a
future update.
There is now a "Repair" feature in the inventory. This has multiple
impacts on the gameplay:
- HP are not recovered after a level anymore;
- if you finish a level with less than 25% of your max HP, you
are automatically repaired up to this value;
- repairing costs scraps, this cost increases if you repair
multiple times in a row and is also higher as you progress;
- you have a free repair after each level.

Changes:
The Frostbite environment has been revamped, it now has more detailed
graphics and less regular rooms AND ice is now slippy!

issues when using the non default resolution

Alpha 15 22nd January 2016

IMPORTANT: the game now uses OpenGL instead of DirectX. This has several
benefits:
- Windows Media Player is no more required (that was a real pain)
- The game should now run on Windows Vista and Windows XP
- It should fix nearly all issues some players had with
fullscreen
- We only have to maintain one single build to support Windows,
OS X and Linux

There are a couple drawbacks though:

- keyboard layout can not be automatically detected anymore,
there is now an option to switch to azerty
- loadings are less smooth because of OpenGL managing threads
differently, the only noticable moment is during level loading (tips appear a bit
laggy)

Known issue:
Retina (Mac OS X) and 4K displays (Windows) are not working unless you
disactivate Hi-DPI mode in your system resolution settings

New:
 Mac OS X and Linux (inc. SteamOS) support

quality (it previously was WMA, arg)

Fixes:
Fixes Windows Vista incompatibility
Fixes Windows XP incompatibility
Fixes a lot of fullscreen issues

New:
Trashing items now reward you with "scrap". There is currently no use
for scrap yet, this will come in the next couple updates
Trashing and sharing items now come with options to select all items,
all non-new items or all items from different classes
Items are now automatically sorted. All non-new items are placed left
of the equipped item, and new items are sorted by rarity. The game will also try to
place weapons you like the most next to equipped ones.

Changes:
The game will now delete the "UserPreferences" file if it crashed. This
will prevent the game from crashing again if it crashed due to unsupported graphics
settings.
It is no more required to restart the game to change the graphics
settings (except for the fullscreen mode option)
Changed the music encoding and file compression algorithm. This is a
preemptive work to get everything working fine on Mac & Linux
