Aloft's New Puzzles & Pyrologics Update
Developer Astrolabe® Interactive and publisher Funcom launched the second major update for Aloft®, titled Puzzles & Pyrologics, combined with a 20% discount until July 10. With this update, the cozy co-op sandbox survival game expands the diversity of its sky islands through the new puzzle system and elevates the potential of player’s own creations. Spark your imagination with the new trailer.
The Puzzles & Pyrologics update fills the sky with puzzles to solve and puts the power to design their own puzzles into the hands of players. Puzzles can also be found as one-off challenges across any islands or on the new puzzle-focused Wonder Islands, larger hand-crafted islands with a story to tell and Pyrologic pieces to sketch.
With the new Emberstone resource, players can craft their own puzzles using trapdoors, rotating walls, pressure plates, levers, timed triggers, and various other clever contraptions. The interaction between these can easily be designed on the Pyrologic board.
Along with improvements to combat animations, enemy scaling, and the addition of new difficulty settings, new community-requested items have been added, such as the custom stretchable rope, and various equilateral triangle building pieces. Players can also enjoy the new vertical windmill, which can catch wind from any direction.
Community continues to be a core pillar of Aloft, and this update is no exception. After many amazing submissions to the recent Island Creator Contest held on Discord, some of the best ones have been selected and added to the skies for players to discover.
Like the sky-winds, Astrolabe is in constant motion – peek through the spyglass for a glimpse at what’s in store.
New world generation, an improved system that will set the foundation for future updates
Sailing upgrades and wind lanes
Progression system revamp
Life trees tied to ecosystem restoration
New enemy and corruption tiers
New tools and weapons
New decoration options
Reward system and character customization
