For this update we focussed on adding act 3 panels. Our general idea is that act 1 panels are all about player movement, act 2 panels about automation and act 3 panels are wild sci-fi techy stuff! Most of these panels you'll have to check out in the challenge modes since act 3 is not in the game yet. As well as adding more panels we've rebalanced the existing panels based on how we've been seeing people play with them. Our aim was to make the panels more powerful from act to act, but relatively balanced within a single act. ...but when you figure out how to get panels to work well together it deliberately throws that out the window and rewards you for discovering that stuff. We've also removed the requirement to unlock a set number of stars before you transition to the second act. Looking at our data we found that people often stopped at the end of act 1, we also saw a few streamers feel a little bummed when they found out they would need to start again. So now you can just move on as soon as you want to. There are still lots of reasons to loop round again, to try new challenges, unlock more panels, stars and story.
