The Endless Mode update is rolling out today. It adds a brand new, fully procedural campaign with 5 flagships for you to take command of as you embark on your quest to reach the alien structure known as The Center. We've heard your feedback and we think players will appreciate the longer campaign, with more variety and more freedom to customize and grow your fleet. We've made optimizations so that battles can include more ships and we've made Permadeath optional in Easy and Medium mode to make it a less frustrating experience for those that found the game too challenging. For those that want more challenge, we've added modifiers to endless mode so you can choose to play with modified rules, such as only being able to repair at stores, or having a chance for systems to be permanently destroyed in battle. We've added a new resource to the game called Scrap, which will be used to repair your fleets. This change was made because some found it difficult to maintain their fleets and have enough money left over to upgrade them. Scrap makes it possible to do both.
Endless mode is a scored mode with your multiplier determined by your difficulty settings. We've added a leaderboard for Endless Mode, and also leaderboards for number of wins in the regular "Story" mode. We've also added 5 new challenge missions to the Skirmish menu, and plan to add more in the future. Almost every part of the game has seen updates in this release:
[list]
