Oh yeah, this is a good one.
Your favorite character now has new, beautiful art in the character select screen, and so does your least favorite character. We've added bubbly sound effects to the Oasis too.
But most importantly, we decided to dig deep into the design and rework some of the basic ammo balancing going on. This is a rather risky move, because changing tiny things down in the foundation ripples through the entire game, so things might be kind of silly. We're pretty certain that these changes will work out well, but we're looking forward to what happens this week.
You'll now find slightly more drops when low on ammo, while Rabbit Paw has been toned down a bit, Lucky Shot has been improved, and Back Muscle no longer helps you get more drops. This design will both help new players (and we've lowered Scorpion HP for them too), but also allow high level players to take more risks and swap their weapons around more as Back Muscle functions more as a storage for un-equipped ammo. These changes should hopefully make everyone less reliant on these ammo mutations, while also allowing them to really make some of the more ammo-hungry weaponry shine. Speaking of mutations, we're trying something silly with Gamma Guts: little area of effect blasts whenever you kill something with it.
Looking forward to seeing how that and all the other fixes and balancing work out!
