Balance Adjustments:

Until now, the game design allowed players to automatically get stronger as they progressed, with increases in round tokens, discards, and reward coins. This excess in later rounds overshadowed the sense of achievement from active strategies like using items or quests. To address this, we're standardizing resource amounts in the later game stages. This patch will introduce new features to help players grow stronger in a more balanced way. - Starting from Stage 2, round tokens and discards per round will be consistently 6 and 5, regardless of the stage - Starting from Stage 2, each round will give 8 gold coins. - Starting from Stage 2, boss rounds will provide 12 gold coins.

Ball or Bet Adjustments:

Balls The multi-ball was already the most valuable in earlier versions. With new special pockets, its value rose further, leading to adjustments. Now, while the multi-ball's base value is higher, its enhancement from scoring points has been moderated. - Corrected the issue where balls had lower point values at higher token levels. - Super Ball Points: 15/20/25/35/45/55/75 > 15/20/25/30/45/60/80 - Repeat Ball Points: 10/15/15/20/25/25 > 10/15/20/25/35/45/60 - Ice Ball Points: 15/20/25/35/45/55/75 > 15/20/25/30/45/60/80 - Heart Ball Points: 15/20/25/35/45/55/75 > 15/20/25/30/45/60/80 - Large Ball Points: 15/20/25/35/45/55/75 > 15/20/25/30/45/60/80 - Target Ball Points: 15/20/25/30/35/40/45 > 15/20/25/30/45/60/80 - Wave Ball Points: 1/1/1/1/1/1/1 > 1/4/7/10/16/22/31 - Multi Ball Points: 5/7/9/11/15/19/25 > 10/15/20/25/35/45/60 - Multi Ball: now only score x0.5 - Multi Ball: number of balls 2/3/4/5 > 3/4/5/6 depending on the level. Although Mirror Bet was intended to be used with balls like the Target Ball or Large Ball, its power level was too weak, making it often better not to use it. This ambiguity in its usefulness led to it feeling like a poor choice and thus, it was rarely used. By enhancing its strength, it is intended to be used in a variety of ways. - Mirror Bet: x1.5/x2/x2.5/x3.5 > x2/x3/x4/x5 - New: Crown Bet - Crown Bet: Provides additional chips when there are no other affecting bets in the same pocket.
