Castle Constructor Alpha 2.3 has been released. This update has a number of good fixes, improvements, and some new content. A new section, the ballista, has been added to the game. This section shoots a large high damage bolt but can only aim in one direction at a time. The player can right click on the section to rotate which way it is facing so they can point it towards enemies. Currently this section is a bit weak and it will likely be buffed in a future update. Next up the murder holes section has been changed. Rather than dropping rocks automatically on only one side, now the player activates it (with a right click or clicking the activation button) and it drops rocks on all open sides. The section starts with 1 charge and gets an additional one with each wave so you can stock up on uses and then activate it as needed.
Based on player feedback the number of waves per level has been increased from 3 to 5. This makes the Treadwheel Crane section more useful and gives you more time to build up before having to start over again.
We are still working hard on the game and have a lot more we want to do before reaching beta. If there is anything you would love to see or found an issue that needs to be fixed please let us know our new survey.
