Well, that was another insanely intense 24 hours! Thank you to everyone continuing to report bugs, send logs, and post feedback, it's all incredibly useful in helping me track down the initial teething problems. Today’s hotfix is primarily focused on memory optimizations to prevent crashes, alongside a few critical balance adjustments for high-tier runs.
Performance & Stability
Memory Optimizations: Implemented multiple memory optimizations across the game to address the underlying issues leading to frequent crashes during long sessions.
Act XXX Reset Fix: Reaching and beating Act XXX now properly resets the board instead of crashing (but you will remain on Act XXX indefinitely!).
Saved Runs: Fixed an issue where using "Continue" on saved runs would occasionally fail to load correctly.
Collision Geometry: Adjusted collision geometry across tables to fix some clipping issues.
QoL
Abandon Run Button: I've added an "Abandon Run" option to the in-game menu. This immediately ends your current run while still preserving your final score and submitting it to the global leaderboards.
Balance Adjustments & Bug Fixes
Endless Mode Multiball: Removed Blocker immunity during Multiball in Endless Mode, we can all agree multiball was the root of broken builds so this aims to mitigate that while still being useful in the first 6 acts.
Chancellor Ball: Adjusted the OP passive ability here - now gains +20% of current Mana on Act Up (reduced from 100%).
Ball Save Blessing: Now saves only the first ball lost within the 60-second window, rather than every ball lost during that time.
Curse-Blocking Glyph: Fixed an issue where the glyph wasn't actually blocking incoming Curses, oops.
Infinite Slow-Mo: Added a fallback for the slow-motion effect persisting indefinitely under specific conditions.
Thank you all again for the ongoing support! I’ll continue to monitor the Discord and feedback forms as these updates roll out, I'm doing my best to reply to everyone so I'm sorry if I've not got round to responding just yet!
Happy flipping!
Kenny
