Great job with the new update, still loving every part of it! After some (less than extensive) testing of the landmine and laser, I have some thoughts: 1. the laser feels a little too powerful for the early game of the finished version as it supersedes the autocannon in basically every aspect. I would like if there was some weaker version (maybe less effective against armored targets but has pierce?) that could be acquired earlier. 2. landmines feel a little weak sometimes, as armored tanks have to be almost right on top of them to get 1-shot and light tanks can survive if they're on the outer half of the blast radius (which is the point of being able to stack them, I guess, but I don't want a single tank to take out my whole trap). I'd also like some kind of noisemaker that attracts nearby enemies; not being able to aggro with grenades felt bad on level 7. (also I kept wishing mines had a little more distance when thrown)

It won't be a starter weapon, it'll be introduced maybe around mission 10-15 where the difficulty should ramp up quite significantly.

Since the weapons in the game won't be upgradeable, it might become a bit too obsolete I think once you unlock the current more powerful one. I might try and see how a dual-fire one would work though.

That's fair. I tend to stack them a lot when I use them, but individually they can be pretty weak. I'll see about extending the range you can toss them.
I'd also like some kind of noisemaker that attracts nearby enemies; not being able to aggro with grenades felt bad on level 7.
Maybe I'll add a function for a horn or siren you can turn on to alert enemies. Could be fun for certain missions where you're fighting organic ones.

Thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate it.

当你正式发布这个游戏时会是多人游戏吗?
目前,我正专注于完成游戏的单人战役。也许等游戏发布后,会有一个多人模式的更新。
