PATCH 0.6.1 - A BETTER START

IMPROVED NEW PLAYER EXPERIENCE

This patch, we significantly improved the new player experience. No more video. Created a tutorial first world sequence and added one-time informational popup messages. After the patch, players with less than 10 geodes will go through this new sequence on their next playthrough. (A new save slot can be used for players with more geodes who want to try it.) Players who bypass the tutorial sequence will still get some of the one-time informational popup messages.

UPDATED ENEMY RANKS

Created a new lower rank enemy that does half damage and has 57% the base amount of hit points. Updated rank colors to make different ranks more distinctive.


BUG FIXES AND IMPROVEMENTS

  • Fixed issue where buying an additional upgrade could spawn the upgrade at a keeper area, rather than the level end upgrade area.
  • Added a revive particle effect and sound, no more guessing if you got the revive off in time.
  • Fixes to Crab boss to not destroy his turrets with the mortar attack.
  • Will now suppress guidance arrows while still capturing a hold point, avoiding confusion.
  • Some overall audio mix adjustments, increasing player footstep sounds.
  • Many more minor performance tweaks, enhancements, and fixes.
