Hi everyone!
In this update we have focused on continuing to polish small details to make the game feel better, i.e. now a subtle slow-mo happens if the last enemy of a wave is killed by a player, adding up a bit of excitement when you complete a hard level!
We also added our first boss intro! The World 5 Boss now has an intro the first time you encounter it, intros for the rest of the bosses will be added on future updates.
Another change introduced is a gentle push to player's attack, player attacks will now push away nearby players a little bit in cooperative modes. This is to avoid "turtle formations" (multiple players really close to each other attacking non-stop). We've seen some players use this strategy on advanced levels and they don't learn what they must learn in order to progress on further levels. It's also in preparation to the addition of teams, where this strategy would lead to really boring matches.
