A few balancing issues....the enemies thread you to pieces without any possibility of upgrading your own weapons.

1.6.136 1) The guidebot is acting very strange. Sometimes it will stall for 10 seconds, then go back to searching normally for 1 minute, then stall for another 10 seconds, and on and on.....and by stalling I mean having it move very slowly in a straight line 2) Resolution menu is still buggy for me :P

I will be adding a tool to my XL-Updater that will do this for you, but for now, you can use this:

The new full-screen graphical gauges need some sort of number value next to it. It's quite hard to estimate how much energy/shield you have right now. It will kinda defeat the purpose of getting rid of the text, but extra eye candy is always better :)
