0.10.0 Bows, Orbs, and Directional Explosions

Added a bow wand and a directional explosion glyph. Made a bunch of balance changes and fixed multiple game breaking matchmaking bugs. Orbs are back with slightly different behavior. This update was a bit rushed and may have some noticeable balance issues, but I wanted to release the matchmaking fixes as soon as possible. Patches will be released in the coming weeks to address any balance issues.

Added:

  • Added Bow wand.
  • Added directional explosion glyph.
  • Added back Orb wand with slightly different behavior. Orbs are slower, have no collision damage, but have increased explosion impact.

Changes:

  • Redid the physics drag calculations, removing the hard limit on movement speed.
  • Changed how direction offset glyphs function. Instead of instantly turning to the desired rotation, they now turn like normal direction glyphs.

Bug fixes:

  • Fixed a small issue with direction glyph calculations.
  • Fixed homing glyph direction calculation issue.
  • Fixed audio-related crashes that mostly occurred with the electricity element (for real this time).
  • Fixed grow/shrink glyph size calculation issue.
  • Fixed an issue with the settings window crashing the game when the window size setting was set larger than the current monitor size.
  • Fixed some issues related to matchmaking. Not sure if all issues are fixed, but crashes should be less frequent now.
