Overshield Nerf, Ambush Fix, and other improvements!
ATTENTION JUMPERS! We've been listening to your feedback and bug reports, and have even more improvements on the way. We agree that the Overshield is too forgiving, and have adjusted the way it functions. It now has twice the health, from 50hp -> 100hp extra, but large sources of damage like spikes or explosions will now penetrate the shield and do the remaining damage to the Jumper's health. This means that spikes will now insta-kill a Jumper with an overshield, however, get a max hp+ relic or a impale resist relic in play, and a shielded player will be at about 20hp remaining if they walk into an explosive egg with an Overshield on (as an example). Let us know how this feels! Please keep the great feedback and bug reports coming on the Steam forums. Thanks for all your support, and we hope you're all having a blast!
Thanks for jumping with us! A positive review on Steam will help bring more Jumpers to our growing community, and result in you having more comrades to jump into hives with!
