Balance Change and Bug Fixes (0.6.1.0)
After checking the gameplay stats I wasn't happy with the win rates of the characters. To address this I've increased the number on many of the base stats for the characters. The Joker got a lot of love because this is suppose to be the tutorials character and the win rate was very low. I'll key an eye on the stats moving forward.
In addition to the above character balances, I wanted to pull a little base damage out of the enemies. Don't fear the will be challenge levels in the near future which will allow you to make the game harder for those who want it.
Some general changes to smooth out the early game and allow more player unlocks.
Fixed a few random bugs, one of which was causing some crashes.

Hi All, This patch was aimed at game stability and balancing out the early game. I'm blow away by how many people have picked up the game. I'll continue to work on bugs all weekend. If you are interested in helping me out please join the discord (I'm pretty quick to respond). Cheers, Aarimous
