Sunshine Bursts Update
Welcome to the Sunshine Bursts Update: the first summer themed update for BoomTag!
A ton of new features await you: from 2 new Maps, to a total change in the main gameplay loop, In-Game Currency and Cosmetics Shop, Events, and much more!
👛In-Game Currency: Explodium👛
Introducing the Explodium, a free in-game currency that can be earned by playing matches.
The amount of Explodium rewarded by a match depends on the number of rounds played, obviously if you win you will receive a larger amount. You can use Explodium in the Cosmetics Shop to buy new items.
🛒Cosmetics Shop🛒
Looking for new Combinations? The Cosmetics Shop is the place where you can use your Explodium.
Here you can find Recolor and Variants of some cosmetics you already know. In the Cosmetics Shop you can buy items alone or part of discounted bundles. There are 3 types of bundles:
- Costume Bundle, offers an Hat, Upper and a Lower part.
- Accessory Bundle, contains a Bomb, a Banner and a Badge.
- Full Set Bundle, is a combination of both Costume and Accessory Bundle.
The Cosmetics shop will be refreshed frequently.
🌐Cloud Save🌐
In addition to Unity Economy for the Cosmetics Shop, Unity's Cloud Save service also arrives.
Save data is now no longer stored on your computer and be retrieved every time you'll launch the game. Your preferences, such as keybindings and other options, are still saved on your local machine. Nothing related to you or your computer will be saved, only your in-game name and your choosen Cosmetics will be stored.
📅Events & In-Game News📅
In the main menu you will now find a new button: News. This button can be used to catch up and see the latest news regarding the game. Additionally, you can also see upcoming or active events in this News Feed.
Events are just an idea that I would like to realize. They are for a limited time only and offer a new way of experiencing BoomTag, in fact they are divided into 2 types:
- Static events, such as Double Explodium, which do not depend on anything and are active in a certain period of time.
- Dynamic events, which require a certain result to obtain some reward, which can be a Cosmetic or the activation of a Static Event. I would like dynamic events to be suggested by you, as they require a common challenge and reward for all.
Remember: Dynamic Events will use Unity Analytics to get in-game information from you, so they will need to be turned on in order to contribute to the event.
🌴Skydome & Pool Party🌴
Skydome and Pool Party are the name of the two new map in BoomTag:
- The Skydome is the first Vertical Map, as it introduces Trampolines that can be used to climb to the upper layer. It also introduces the Moving Barrier, the first obstacle that moves up and down and that have the chance of blocking your way.
- The Pool Party map features already seen Teleports, and the new Trampolines, but also Pool Trampolines, Water Slides, and Terrain Modifiers, such as Water that slow you down.
🎩New Cosmetics🎩
Up to 80 new Cosmetics including 2 new types of Cosmetics to dive into action!
Banners and Badges are here to personalize your Nameplate, but there are 40+ free Cosmetic Pieces to personalize your entire loadout, such as the Cowboy Outfit, the Shark Costume, the Deep Sea Diver and much more. By playing you will obtain Explodium with which you can buy Variants of these Cosmetics in the Cosmetics Shop and expand your customizations.
I am open to making adjustments especially on the amount of Explodium rewarded and the Prices within the Cosmetics Shop. I don't want it to be too much challenging getting a new Hat or Costume. IF NOT APPRECIATED I AM FREE TO GET RID OF THE ENTIRE COSMETIC STORE, so please suggest improvements I could make.
Thanks for supporting BoomTag!
