Minor update - fix main menu wishlist button

On the 27th of July we pushed a tiny update to fix the Bore Blasters button on the main menu. Due to engine updates this also had the unintended consequence of disabling gamepad controls. When we were notified of this, we reverted the build. On the 28th of July we have pushed a build that fixes the button without impacting gamepad controls. If there are any issues, please report in the discussions section. Thanks to those that reported the issue in the first place, and apologies for the inconvenience!

QoL update

Display number of scrap ups achieved in HUD Display health when offered the Restore Shield upgrade To avoid confusion, Restore Shield is now capped so that x2 or x3 is not offered when it would heal more than the damage taken Fixed: When selecting weapons with mouse, if the cursor is not moved after clicking reroll once, trying to click a second time will select the card in the center instead of reroll Attempt to detect when stat descriptions exceed card space to ensure descriptions are readable (primarily impacted German translation)

Note: If you fulfill the unlock requirements for the new character, you will still need to finish a run to trigger the unlock. We've also implemented a new weapon, which is included in this build as well. Feedback and bug reports are welcome!

Quality of Life Updates

Values are now displayed in the settings menu. You can now buy multiple permanent upgrades at once by holding left shift or L-trigger on a gamepad. This is unofficial functionality. Added support for gamepad 8BitDo SN30+pro on Mac. This build also includes the weapon controller system overhaul. This should mean the following benefits: Weapon icons in the bottom left of the game UI should no longer disappear and reappear at random The icons should always remain in the same order Weapon cooldowns should be more predictable


[ 2022-11-08 13:59:23 CET ] [ Original post ]


Weapon System Rewrite

The weapon controller system has been completely overhauled. This should mean the following benefits: * Weapon icons in the bottom left of the game UI should no longer disappear and reappear at random * The icons should always remain in the same order * Weapon cooldowns should be more predictable Since this is a major update, it will be pushed to the experimental branch before being made live for everyone. If you are playing on the experimental branch, please let me know as soon as possible if you notice any issues.

New Skill

New skill implemented - damage boost on full shields. Unlock it now! Tweaked engine resource limits, to better handle extreme runs (threat >50)


[ 2022-10-27 19:24:38 CET ] [ Original post ]


Banish Upgrades

Upgrade banishing feature implemented. Purchase banish credits in Permanent Upgrades. Note that you can mark an upgrade for banishing and still pick it - that way you get it once. Fixed double damage achievement sometimes not unlocking. There was a discrepancy where reaching >=40 threat level triggers the Steam achievement, but >40 threat level was required to unlock the upgrade. The unlock requirement has now been updated to match the Steam achievement, i.e. >=40. This will not apply retrospectively.


[ 2022-10-26 08:26:05 CET ] [ Original post ]


Banish Upgrades - coming soon

Upgrade banishing is almost here! Version 1.13 has been added to the experimental branch, which contains upgrade banishing functionality.

[ 2022-10-22 12:55:34 CET ] [ Original post ]


Hotfix 1.6

Fix crash on new game Attempted fix for black screen bug on menu selection. This is likely related to input being registered twice - which means new issues are likely to crop up. We will continue to investigate but this is a tricky issue. Improved no shield damage boost effect (made it subtler) Game now saves window size and position when not using fullscreen
