HIGHLIGHTS 5 NEW MAPS - Peppered through the main part of the Grand Aquilla, and part of Ome Sphere. All of which are completely unique NEW VESSEL BUSTER - The fastest... Dog! Coming with a complete new set of towers, units, and upgrades. A totally new way to play 6 NEW CARDINALS - For all colors! Many give pretty wacky effects that should shake up the game and most are gained through the new maps! NEW ENEMY + TIDE LAYOUT - Take on 20 tides that speed up, hit hard, and will challenge you in a different way SWEEPING QOL CHANGES - Many new improvements to ui, gameplay, and flow! (Many new changes will also appear post this patch) ALSO NEW Added tool tips to various places in game! Hovering over some icons will tell you what they are.

Added a instance of saving at the end of a map for extra saving goodness Added Camera Smoothing settings option - Will basically remove the general game's smoothing of the camera for both the overworld and the game. This is for anyone that may be prone to motion sickness or perhaps just like that experience Added Invert Quick Build Controls settings option - Inverts building shortcuts from 1,2,3,4 to be 4,3,2,1! You can always do this manually, just keep note of this setting aswell Some map may contain additional requirements to clear a map, such as reaching a certain medal threshold New enemy modifier! CHANGES Map [spoiler]Kong[/spoiler] Camera has been adjusted [spoiler]Kong[/spoiler] now counts towards progression of the next region Adjusted all 'Difficulty' ratings above 4! Adding another blip between maps labeled as difficulty 4 and 5. Should help a bit more with the clarity on how hard some maps may be Typhoon Severity type has been renamed to Downpour! It's the same thing, but with a more watery name to suit the most common style there is in the game. (And to differentiate from future severity types) Slight adjustments to earlier waves in Downpour (Formerly Typhoon) Adjustments to Smacky Bombs, a few upgrades (mainly the splitting bombs) now can hit slightly more enemies Adjustments to Smacky tower pricing (Slightly cheaper tier 4) Smacky Assassin's shot damage percent threshold lowered (Deals more damage) Smacky Assassin's shot price lowered Smacky's Bow squad now deals slightly more damage Buff Miners now have a 'cost' for a silly very not important niche interactions Sno Sno's Cannon Extra Frosty upgrade increased duration Sno Sno's Wall Tip of the Iceberg increased damage and have slightly less gravity Sno Sno Cannons (in most circumstances) will prioritize snobles over sno if available Burnt Snobles now have a 'cost' for a silly very not important niche interactions Boutman pricing adjustments (both up and down for various upgrades) Bout barrels now require an open space above to be placed Adjustments to Watertower fish's ai to potentially be 'smarter' and prevent crashes The Money Bag Cardinal's ability has been switched with a completely different one. And it's unlock condition has been changed HOWEVER, the original ability has been ported onto a new Cardinal, with the original unlock condition AND now applies to units aswell Fish Bait Cardinal's Gabby Now deals 99 damage Burnt Snobles power has been adjusted to be more damage focused The Tide bomb (Projectile when the wave starts from the basin) now deals more damage to OLDER enemies, aka any pull over enemies receive additional damage each tide they survive Mild adjustments to red enemy ai, while they still may get stuck (for now), it's less likely! Health (and other variable stats) now PULL OVER damage already dealt if the max health is reduced. This should lead to better situations where an max health reduction effects wears off and the unit 'heals' more than they're supposed to. This is percent based General navigation adjustments! The connection between 'ledge' blocks have been changed! They in general do not connect to one another anymore which means units/things no longer 'hover' in the air above ledges. Medals visuals adjusted! Some maps now have additional requirements for the 'waypoint' unlocks, and in conjunction, the cardinal unlock! These will appear later in the game reduced the requirement for Ulu, Galbass, and Gridhead to unlock their waypoint reduced the requirement for Sno Sno's unlock Drives are now visible in the character select BUGFIXES Fixed the vintage watch cardinal Fixed some hitboxing issues with smacky's walls Fixed various 'special resource' map's interaction with Resource-altering cardinals and the like. Which some displayed a change but didn't actually do anything Fixed up Ome Anchor's general sticky nodes issue Sno Sno's Sno Fall upgrade now should show the indicator as soon as it's upgraded Some niche situations where a stat is removed should now properly reflect when viewing a unit's stats Fixed an issue with the vintage watch adding more time than it should Fixed the game's camera having a component in it that worked off of frame rate, it should now be framerate independent fixed a bug related to IP man of war not working with boutbro under certain circumstances fixed a crashing bug with the final tower upgrade for boutman's barrel fixed various map bounding/gridding/hitboxing issues! Fixed an issue with beacon not applying growing health stats to respawned buildings Various and large sweeping back-end changes for stability and general useage/speed of future patches And more...
