    • Basic blocks can now have heat resistant or cold resistant plating
    • Added Altimeter part.

    • Added -100% damage upgrade.

    Bugfixes

    • Fixed LED’s when using tags as input
    • Fixed that large fuel tanks were attracted with too much force when using magnets.

  3. Hi pack

    Because of the recent summer sale (which always lead to lots of people who don't think if they really want to play such a game)
    the Niche review score has gone waaaay down. This is bad for our sales (aka our time we can spend working on Niche).
    So, if you haven't written a review yet, we'd greatly appreciate if you do so :)

  5. Depends on the island ^^
    The apes spawn from ape spawn trees, so how many apes can spawn depends on the amount on those trees on the map.
    I'd say 0 - 1 on medium, 2 - 4 on hard and 3+ on killer islands. Correct me if I'm wrong xD
    Fun fact: Stinky Fruit bushes love to grow next to ape spawn trees ;)
