Hi everyone,
Thank you for your passionate responses to Gripper! We are thrilled to have you playing our unique hardcore boss rush action among the first.
We have been listening to your feedback and implemented a lot of new features to make Gripper a better experience for everyone. Our first MAJOR UPDATE 1.1 includes: difficulty options, tunnel checkpoints, enchanced consumable interface, more accessible quests, boss behaviour updates, balance tweaks and other quality of life upgrades to the game.
Starting with the difficulty, we are introducing three new options: Rider, Fighter and Gripper. On launch Gripper featured only one hardcore difficulty mode and these additional options will allow for players of various skill levels to enjoy the fast and frenetic gameplay experience.
In addition, the Tunnels sections now have checkpoints on the Rider and Fighter difficulty options, and the Health Pack efficiency is increased.
