Hello! The v2.9.12 update is now live.
This update focuses on a major merge overhaul, scoring improvements, new creature skills, a cleaner UI, and lots of stability fixes.
🔀 Merge System Changes
You can now merge the same creature type even if their levels are different.
Merge results are now calculated as the higher level + 1.
Example: Level 3 + Level 2 → Level 4
Fixed chain merge issues: merges will now continue if a matching creature is nearby after a merge.
The level cap is now 50.
💯 Scoring Updates
Merge score multiplier adjusted from 7x to 5x.
Starfish score pattern changed to 5, 55, 555… (previously 7, 77, 777…).
Jellyfish score is now equal to its level.
Improved support for extremely large scores.
A YOU WIN message will appear when you reach the maximum score. (Try to find it 😄)
🥚 Spawning & Skills
All creatures now always spawn at Level 1.
Each item type now has its own independent spawn timer.
New creature skills have been added—certain creatures will trigger a skill when eaten.
⚔️ Skill List
Jellyfish: Egg → Starfish conversion
