Mindustry x HELLDIVERS 2. You are the Automatons. Super Earth has landed on Malevelon Creek: build the war machine, raise a bot army and hold the line for 25 waves.
Every HELLDIVERS 2 unit, building, stratagem icon, voice line, sound and music track is read from your own HELLDIVERS 2 install on first start. Nothing from either game is in the download.
New in 0.2 "Heart - Steel"
Harder Super Earth waves: bigger groups, SEAF Machine Gunners, SEAF Shielders whose directional energy shield covers the squad (break it before it recharges) and TD-220 Bastion tank destroyers.
DSS Eagle Storms: on later waves the Democracy Space Station sends strings of Eagle runs at your base.
Helldiver variants: Veterans (shield pack, more stratagems), Saboteurs who land inside your base, and laughing MadDivers who run a hellbomb into your buildings.
Thrown stratagems: you see each beacon fly from the Helldiver's hand. The Eagle 500kg Bomb now lands with a huge blast.
Voices: SEAF and Helldivers shout real HELLDIVERS 2 lines in battle.
Automaton Orbital Cannon: a giant, expensive cannon firing fuel-cell shells at the Super Earth line from across the map.
Automaton Mines, a square Trench Wall, and bigger Detector Tower, Fabricator, Refinery, Chimney, Battery Generator, Dropship Pad and Command Bunker.
What you get
Malevelon Creek: a new map from the main menu. Rain-soaked jungle, a creek with fords, your Automaton Command Bunker in the south and the Super Earth landing zone in the north.
Automaton resources: Automaton Scrap (dug from piles of destroyed Troopers), Cyberstan Steel and Fuel Cells, alongside Mindustry's copper, lead, sand and coal.
Automaton buildings rendered from the real HELLDIVERS 2 structures, and your army: Troopers, Devastators, Hulks and Annihilator Tanks. You fly an Automaton Gunship that builds and mines.
Super Earth's 25 waves: SEAF Troopers, Gunners, Rocketeers and Shielders, Patriot Exosuits, Bastions, Eagle sorties and DSS storms - then, from wave 18, Helldivers by hellpod calling Eagle Airstrikes, 500kg bombs, orbital strikes, 380mm barrages and Exosuit drops.
Co-op for up to 4 Automatons over Steam: start Malevelon Creek, then choose Host Multiplayer Game in the pause menu. Friends join from the Steam friends list or by pasting the host's steam: address into Join Game.
Good to know
Needs Mindustry (Steam, build 160+) and HELLDIVERS 2 (Steam) installed. HELLDIVERS 2 doesn't need to be running and is only read, never changed.
The first start after installing or updating stays on the loading screen for about two minutes while Helldustry renders the HELLDIVERS 2 art.
