The latest update to Cubic Odyssey promises to transform the gaming experience with a novel world-generation seeding system, allowing each playthrough to be distinct. This feature pushes the game further into a realm reminiscent of
Players are greeted with an adventure that begins by dispersing planets and star systems in an unpredictable manner, making it impossible to rely on previous encounters or strategies. Despite the randomness, a consistent starting scenario anchors each new journey: a random spawn planet with a speeder, a spaceship, tier-one gear, batteries, and essential resources to construct a first shelter, ensuring readiness for the interstellar voyage that lies ahead.
Enhanced Cooperative Play
Significant improvements have been made to the cooperative experience in Cubic Odyssey. Now, when a player joins a space session, they will find themselves piloting their ship, ready to engage in the vast cosmos. Similarly, those choosing to join on a planetary level will start in their parked craft, adding a layer of realism and continuity. Enhancements in client syncing have addressed persistent issues such as door malfunctions, elevator inconsistencies, and item duplication glitches, ensuring a smoother collaborative gameplay.
New gameplay features have also been introduced, such as the "one-cube stepping" option. This innovative mechanic allows characters to navigate terrain effortlessly, bridging single-cube height differences without the need to jump—though this can be toggled to only apply while sprinting, providing flexibility to the gaming style.
Dynamic Encounters and More
Further enriching the gaming environment, neutral NPCs exhibit heightened sensitivity to player interactions, reacting more naturally to attacks and repair attempts. This liveliness extends to resource management improvements; players will no longer squander resources on repairing speeder types they already possess. The game's economy receives a boost as well—unwanted ships can now be sold, allowing players to manage their fleets more efficiently and focus on crafting the perfect cosmic expedition.
The developers, Atypical Games, have also made it easier to detect mimics, as these previously elusive entities reveal themselves once damaged, adding an element of strategy to encounters. All these enhancements are live and accessible to players, offering them a fresh invite to delve into the cosmos. Enthusiasts can explore all the newly introduced features by downloading the patch, available for Cubic Odyssey on Steam, priced at $24.99 or £20.99.
