I've been patiently waiting until the game got more exposure before unleashing this beast of an update...and now, THAT DAY HAS COME.
8 NEW TURRETS:
Warp:
"Bend space, pick place." Teleport projectiles to wherever your crosshair is, no matter the distance!
Fortress:
"The best offense is a good defense." A giant fortress with 3 spinning barrels to keep microbes at bay.
Shuriken:
"Strike from the shadows." Enter stealth to avoid shots, then exit with a flurry of rounds!
Tempest:
"Gale force winds." Knockback is SHARED among all microbes at once.
Helios:
"Rise and radiate." Charge up and unleash solar radiation on your foes.
Chrono:
"Make every second count." Stop the clock to fire (Chrono is NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART).
Avarice:
"SUPER...HOT...SUPER...HOT...SUPER...HOT..." Yep, that's right, I just kinda stole their idea. Only true guardians of the genome will be unlocking Avarice...
Dragoon:
"Echoes of the dragon's roar." Critical hits ricochet towards nearby microbes! Look, let's face it, this is your favourite.

BANISH SYSTEM:
You now start runs with "Banishes", the amount of which is based on how many modes you've complete at Depth 5. Spend Banishes during a run to disallow an item you see in the shop from ever appearing again during that run - this gives you more control over what's offered, and is especially useful on weapon letters if you already know what weapons you want.
BALANCE:
- (turret) Commander: Range +0% → +100%, Firerate -45% → -50%.
CHANGES:
- Tips have been added to the SETUP menu for the new turrets and perks.
FIXES:
- Having the heat circle on crosshair setting toggled on won't work on some turrets (on purpose, since you can't manually aim their shots), but this was causing the heat circle to not properly scale to the turret (which could even result in it being completely hidden).
- If you filled all slots of a certain type but had an item of that type locked in the shop, the lock button will disappear (as it should, since you shouldn't be able to lock an item you can never equip), but it wasn't actually unlocking the item, until now.
