Hardpointe ver0.2 is playable

The latest version of hardpointe (I’m called it v0.2) is available to play here.

It’s a bit more polished than the first version, with a number of ease-of-play fixes and more varied enemies.

Change log:

• Screen/font can now be enlarged/shrunk
• Auto-pickup of items
• ‘Brogue-style’ exits that you just walk into (this item and last item are meant to reduce over-reliance on the action key)
• Removed redundant power install menu
• No monsters in the starting room (whew)
• Added fleeing enemies (Skirmisher)
• Added shielded enemies (they will recharge if they escape): Skirmisher, Centurion
• Added an EMP grenade that conveniently takes out shields
• Fixed a bug with level changes caused by dropping through chasms (sometimes)
• Added a final boss (sort of): The Archon. The only enemy in the game with more than 3 ‘health’ (shields + hit points)
• Made the asteroid 6 levels
• Monster count & difficulty level scale better with increasing levels
• Player starts with the Hack power (fairly OP but I have not done much balancing)

If you’ve played it, leave me a comment here, or on /r/roguelikedev. Enjoy.
