Version 1.505

(Not yet released)

  • Fixed a bug where it was possible in some cases to have more than 100% health, which led to visual health bar glitches as well as you actually having more health than you were supposed to.
    • Thanks to eruanion for reporting.
  • Put in recovery code for cases in which previously the player hull could be set to null by you clicking around a lot during world generation; it now chooses a random hull when it hits such a case, rather than just dying. Actually fixing the root issue is of course next on the list, but there may be multiple ways to trigger this.
  • Added tooltips to the icons on the bottom right of the file select screen.
  • Fixed a longstanding but little-seen issue where mouse or key presses during the creation of a new run would corrupt the run in many cases.
  • Fixed ConductiveHull stats.
  • Reduced Cryofreeze Module volume a bit.
  • Fixed a null reference exception that apparently could happen sometimes when either starting the tutorial for the first time or possibly related to exiting or entering certain rooms.

BETA 1.504

(Released January 2nd, 2017)

  • Updating to Unity 5.5.0p3, which seems to fix the errors we were having in 5.5.0f1 when resizing or maximizing the screen.

    • Thanks to Monkooky for reporting.

    • Thanks to Goldenwolf for these changes.

  • Grenade Launcher and Cluster Launcher no longer destroy enemy shots (which was super OP).

    • Thanks to eruanion for reporting.
  • The Perk Overhaul and Balance Update (plus other stuff)
    • For Misery's breakdown of the changes go here: https://www.arcengames.com/forums/index.php/topic,19218.0.html
    • Lots of new general perks added such as Savings Interest, An Eye For an Eye, Bloody Rage, Big Game Hunter, and many more.
    • At least one unique perk for each mech such as Flame Master.
    • Many existing perks revamped such as Heavyweight, Resistance (was Deftness)
    • The perk level placements have been adjusted a lot, so that options need to be thought about a lot more. No more massive DPS no brainers.
    • Adjustments so that attrition is more of a thing, the main one being that health items now only restore 1HP. Gearing up and combatting attrition is now more of a challenge.
    • Enemy damage scaling has been removed. No longer do early floor enemies just get buffed on later floors, so you have to think a bit more strategically about what enemies in the current rooms are threats or not. Certain dangerous looking enemies will hit hard and need to be taken down quickly.
    • Floor size has been reduced significantly so that run length is reduced overall.
    • Upgrade damage boosts have been reduced a lot. The maximum single upgrades now are +40% and x33%, with most giving between +10% and +20% instead of numbers like +50% and +75%.
    • More XP bonus resources. There are now 3 versions of XP resource pickup. Sometimes you can find rare ones that will give you a big boost.
    • New enemies from Misery such as Disservers, Ramparts, and more.
    • A lot of small tweaks that we've probably forgotten about.
  • Fixed AOE not waking enemies bug.
  • Fixed Needler Probe respawn when buying new familiars bug.
    • Thanks to Windless Zephyr for highlighting this.
  • Reduced Stomper volume.
    • Thanks to Logorouge for reporting.
  • Fixed a bug where the "unlocked all items" achievement was erroneously given to players previously.
