Hey Cottagecore fam! What a journey its been since launching Hardcore Cottagecore! I've just dropped the first big patch since the game hit the shelves, and its jam-packed with performance improvements, bug squashes, and a sprinkle of magic to make your adventures in Mushroom Meadow even more enchanting. Lets dive into the diary of a solo dev gone wild: Squashin Bugs - I have been on a performance bug-hunt and tracked down what was causing the annoying stuttering before the upgrade menu opens, journal is updated, or fences were knocked down - this was the biggest bug and I am pumped to have that out of the way. - Fixed bug where small enemies could slip through your Spore Shield. - Fixed a bug where the electrical panel switches in the Headquarters would rotate like a contortionist. - Fixed a visual glitch were lilypads in Violet Veil Marsh could appear on top of speech bubbles. - Made volume sliders less sensitive to avoid sending them flying when using a joystick. - Fixed bug where enemies would sometimes spawn on top of you. - Fixed up the hitbox on Mamas Broom, so it behaves just like youd expect. - Fixed bug where the Twirlinator boss in level 1 would fire a line of missiles instead of a spinning spiral. Balance, Balance, Balance! - Refined the enemy spawner for 2-player co-op, doubling the XP needed to keep things challenging yet fair. - Adjusted enemy balance for a smoother difficulty curve, whether youre flying solo or teaming up. - Big balance tweak to the xp/level curve. - Played around with the potency of the Vine Strike ability, its still really nice but less drastically OP. - Dialed up the strength and speed of the Mushroom Folk spawned by the Fungalmancy ability. - Quests are now even more rewarding with increased XP drops, because everyone loves leveling up! New Stuff! - Updated Minimap to include boss icons, Robobomb, and Little Snack locations, so youre never caught off guard. - Updated the look of the green tank robot enemies, they also now have some cool particle effects and flash to warn you when they are about to shoot! Its been a full-on weekend of tweaks, fixes, and enhancements to make sure Hardcore Cottagecore is everything you hoped for and more. Your support has been incredible, thanks so much for all your kind words, reviews, and bug reports! Im excited to see you dive back into Mushroom Meadow with all these improvements. Catch you in the meadow, and here's to many more adventures together! -fufroom
