Hey everyone,
In this patch, there are some huge changes to balance and dungeon difficulty in the later pillars. Drone damage has been increased significantly to try and make attack drones a viable build. Enemy attack has been largely left untouched, but HP has been buffed so players aren’t just mindlessly mowing through the rooms to the final boss.
While this patch has gone some testing and feedback with regards to this, please bear with me if the changes seem too much and post your feedback. I want to get this to a good state of balance where most players face a fun challenge while not being frustratingly hard to progress.
Version 1.1.13 patch notes
Bugs Fixed
- Replica treehouse can now deposit/take little friends via mouse click (previously UI bugged with mouse interaction)
- Map can no longer be dragged/scrolled when fully zoomed out causing visual bug
- Waterbolt bounce fixed where bonus from equipment would not contribute to the number of bounces.
- Updated controller assignment method for 2p mode
- Fixed equipment bonus not recalculating if using a controller and selecting “equip/unequip” through the menu. Dragging and dropping worked OK.
- Harvesting carrot pot plant using a harvesting drone will cause progression bug and not allow save that day.
- Spooklet should not save you if you die in DungeonVR, causing you to pay fine.
- Characters sometimes freeze their animations during cutscenes or don’t walk to correct spots
- Lotuses no longer spawn in unreachable spaces (new saves only)
- Giant lotus spawn more reliably checks for 3x3 (previously if you had other pods surrounding, it won’t combine)
- Time pauses when choosing pixie card rewards from pixie guardian
- If you didn’t get your pixie friend from the guardian due to previous bug, you may go back and talk to them for your reward in this version
- Pigeon friend will land from flight mode when near you
- Fixed cooking mini game “are you sure you want to exit” when going back up stairs after a minigame
- Fixed grabbing minigame ingredients outside of minigame.
Balance
