Greeting fellow UMFers,
We're pleased as porridge to announce that the first major content update for Utopia Must Fall is live.
Highlights:
- New upgrade: Graphene Tipped Rods, cobalt projectiles are slowed and become superheated on contact with nuke fireballs, passing through enemies and dealing damage multiple times (hot bullets)
- New upgrade: Full Graphene Coating (hermit only), hot cobalt bullets melt through 50% more enemies
- Nullifiers now absorb a limited amount of nuke fireball energy before collapsing into a temporary wormhole releasing a swarm of Anemones
- Anemones congregate above the city leeching shield energy. If the shield is offline, life force is drained directly from citizens
- All unshielded enemies (except Nullifiers) can now be killed with nukes, those previously fully immune are now between 80% and 98% resistant
- All enemy shields are now destructible with bullets, lasers or flail strikes
- Cobalt Coil Gun deals 2x damage to enemy shields
- Two rare attack wave variants added (Mini Rebel Centipede, Contracting Nuclear Polygon Squad)
There are also scads of balance adjustments, engine improvements, new sound effects, new music, and a few new achievements as well:
- Gonnahavemesomefun - destroy a cloaking enemy before it had the chance to use its cloaking ability (enemies that enter already cloaked don’t count)
- Hard Boiled - break an enemy shield using superheated projectiles
- Seafood Platter - destroy an entire swarm of inter-dimensional Anemones
- Blissful Ignorance - survive 14 days without taking any shield damage
- Pretty Decent Innit? - suffer 3 shield breaks in one day
- Bookworm & Bohemian rewards / achievements brought back
