Power of Ten recently received a major update that featured a new playable ship and some game mechanic changes. In addition to that, the developer has introduced new content and bug fixes.
The 10th Playable Ship
The latest update introduces the 10th playable ship called the 4-1 ship. It is versatile in nature, and can be easily found in the last region of the game. Plus, each other ship will “shift” down a region from their current unlock area.
Progression Updates
As players continue and level their progression score, they are bound to unlock various power upgrades to all ships. When they are collectively obtained, players will get a significant boost and each level moving forward will require less to progress.
Gear Container Rerolls
Previously, rerolling the lowest tier containers was limiting, so the developer got rid of it. Now, rerolling may result in three endings: nothing, upgrade, or double upgrade. The developer hopes this will be more fun for players compared to the original mechanic.
