Update #60 - The Gun Update - Weekend of January 23rd

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6BVUqfO55mY

Brace yourselves, this is a big one! Our short break helped re-energize us a bit, and that has resulted in this ridiculously feature-filled monster of an update.

Let's just dig into things: First of all, we've broken the 100-gun barrier, putting us at a grand total of 101 weapons! Celebrate this landmark moment by trying out some of the new Golden Weapons, or the incredibly powerful Devastator!

We've also managed to include the final Ultra Mutations, with brand new abilities for Fish, Plant, Eyes (we replaced the homing projectiles with something way more fun), and Yung Venuz. This doesn't mean we're done with the Ultras, as some of them might still be changed around and most of them still need some love, but it does mean you can safely take the Crown of Destiny without ending up with empty hands!

Besides all that, all the weapon sound effects have been redone and we've added a bunch more sounds to weapons that didn't have their own voice yet. There's also two new ambiences for the 0_1 level, an updated Crown Guardian track and a unique little jingle for when you beat those! And all that is just the main features, we haven't even gotten to the fixes (hammerhead and strong spirit have been given a boost), the new ultra icons, or any of the millions of other things we've done!

Please dig in, and let us know what you think!

    Features
  • A new load of Golden Weapons! Say hello to the Golden Slugger, Assault Rifle, Plasma Gun, Screwdriver, Splinter Gun and Bazooka! These won't be nearly as easy to get as the normal Golden Weapons.
  • The Devastator.
  • New Ultra Mutations for Eyes, Fish, Plant and Yung Venuz!
  • Icons for all Ultra Mutations, Hammerhead and Strong Spirit.
  • Remastered and brand new weapon and swap sounds!
  • Updated Crown Vault tracks, and new ambience tracks for 0_1. Balancing
  • The Heavy Slugger now has a way higher rate of fire, but less range.
  • Hammerhead now requires you to really push against a wall.
  • Strong Spirit now saves your live once, and recharges by returning to full HP. Really needs visual some effects for communication purposes, but we haven't gotten to that yet.
  • No more Crown Portals in the Palace!
  • Robot gets slightly less drops from eating Golden Weapons now.
  • You'll no longer find the Golden Revolver on loops! Fixes
  • Robot's Regurgitate should now work as intended.
  • Fixed a problem with the ambience track in the menu.
  • Steroids doesn't have Stress by default on their secondary weapon anymore.
  • Weapon Chests on the same level should've stopped dropping the same weapon.
  • Fixed a problem with the Ultra Shovel HUD icon.
  • Fixed the sprite origin of the Hyper Rifle and Plasma Minigun.
  • Fixed a crash related to the Sewers loop boss.
  • Hopefully fixed the early portal bug Big Dog has.
  • Fixed the description for Plant's Throne Butt. Misc
  • Tweaked the way mutations look on the HUD.

It's good to be back!
