August 7, 2026 Tutorial and Solaris Update

A guided tutorial now teaches the full flight-and-fight loop step by step, while Solaris receives its own expanded weapon pass.

Tutorial Campaign

  • Added a dedicated tutorial from the main menu, with first-time guidance that introduces systems progressively instead of presenting every control at once.
  • Lessons cover movement, aiming and firing, missiles, boost, dodge, enemies, loot, equipment, special abilities, bosses, and campaign progression.
  • Tutorial combat normalizes core player stats so every pilot learns the same mechanics consistently while retaining each ship’s normal firing pattern and Solaris behavior.

Tutorial Presentation

  • The Tutorial button receives distinct visual emphasis and first-load messaging recommends completing it before the campaign.

Solaris

  • Expanded Solaris weapon features and corrected companion-pet firing so the ship’s supporting damage behaves reliably during training and campaign play.
