Hellow fellow Scrappers!

Yet another big patch! This time I focused on the final boss: The chaotic rumble against four bosses is replaced by an epic fight against a huge monster, followed by the usual fight against the last boss. Besides that, I introduced a few new stats, items, body parts and new ways to deal damage to support HP, Ammo and Knockdown builds. Going through the code, I found and fixed a lot of old bugs. Together with an engine update, the game should run more stable than ever before.

  - Collision Damage: extra damage from knockback collisions,

• new item compressor charger: increased attack speed depending on ammunition left,

With this update, you can adjust the power of the screen tint effects in the settings menu. The base power of the damage screen tint effect is now relative to the damage taken, so there is no anoying flashing anymore when taking little poison damage.

The last perk (Damage Booster) is really weak compared to the other perks and was only meant (and requested) as an extra when all the other perks are unlocked already. But somehow, almost every new player unlocks them first. Not anymore! With this update, the damage booster perk are now hidden until all the others perks are unlocked.

• reset and hide damage booster perk until max level
