New Bosses! More Enemies! More Relics! More Boons!

New Boss: ??? - Buffs his allies, healing them and granting them more max HP and a movement speed boost.

New Boss: ??? - Fires a laser at the Infinite Power Generator from a distance. The longer it channels, the more damage it deals.

Changes

Some of these changes were implemented in earlier minor patches, but will be listed here for visibility.

• All-In speed-up: All-In has been given another speed-up. It now takes me about 30 seconds to open 250,000,000 chests. However, it can still take a few minutes when you need to open billions of chests.
  A text label indicating progress has been added to the All-In dialog when there's a long wait time.
  NOTE: Due to technical limitations, the price of each chest is maxed out at 2^63 - 1. I plan to change the chest price curve and algorithm next patch, but for now, enjoy!
• Several pop-up windows, including the Options dialog, have been re-designed to be bigger with easier to read font.
  A note has been added to the bottom of the in-game Esc menu that tells the player that EXP and Tickets are saved if you Exit to Menu or Exit to Desktop before the game session has terminated.
• The menu sound effects have been updated. I'm just trying them out - tell me if you like them more or less than the old ones.
• The damage done by Bleed is slightly nerfed. In 0.7, Machine Gun with Serrated Rounds was the only way to apply Bleed, which did max % HP damage every 0.5 seconds, and by the two hour mark, it was responsible for 99% of the damage dealt to any boss. Now, it's still good, but needs more stacks to be as good as before. (Also, there are more ways to apply Bleed this patch.)
• Necromancer: Increased max HP a small amount. Super Necromancer is a little more difficult.
• Summoner: Super Summoner is more difficult.
• Werebear: Slightly reduced Werebear's base HP.
• Boss health bars and the Infinite Power Generator's health bar is now much more visible in general.
• Reduced health/movespeed scaling on Normal mode after 2 hours. This is a great difficulty to select if you like truly endless runs.
• Slightly increased health scaling on Hard mode after 2 hours.
• Grenade Attachment Relic: Now upgrades your strongest Sniper on pick-up.
• Napalm Relic: Now upgrades your strongest Cannon on pick-up.
• Turret Offense Relic: Now upgrades your strongest Turret on pick-up.
• Assassin Relic: Now shows which train carriage received the last upgrade in the tooltip.
• Goo Launcher: Reduced area of effect scaling. Slightly reduced damage scaling and slow scaling. This carriage grew a bit too strong, too fast, so I'm adjusting it.
• Saw Blade: Reduced attack speed and attack speed scaling. Increased damage and damage scaling. This is meant to reduce the number of saws on the map, but not the damage it deals. It's a nerf if you prefer to use Saw to target the nearest creature, but a neutral change for using it against bosses. The default targeting of the Saw Blade has been changed to Strongest.
  Also, a bug was fixed that caused Saw to deal area of effect damage beyond its normal collision circle. As far as I'm aware, Saw is mostly used against bosses anyway, so the only thing you might notice is that it does less damage on the Damage/Second meter than before, but this combined with attack speed reduction will also make it less laggy to use Saw at high levels.
• Bazooka: Damage scaling increased.
• A significant amount of EXP/tickets are added from defeating the first super boss. Defeating super bosses after the first one are worth more than average.
• The sound effects indicating that you've received a power-up are now silenced when you've maxed out both power-up related upgrades.
• An "Open Config Folder" button has been added to the "Advanced" tab of the Options menu for PC players.

Bug Fixes

Again, some of these were fixed in earlier minor patches, but are listed here for visibility.

• Various relic bugs fixed.
• Fixed chest price not increasing from skipping chests during All-In in hard mode.
• Fixed Controller/Keyboard focus issues on the "Buy Carriage" screen.
• For keyboard-only players, you can now press SHIFT + ENTER to buy 5 upgrades at a time. (You can already hold SHIFT + left mouse button, or use Right Shoulder button + the accept button on controller, to do this.)
• Fixed performance issues with carriages and relics that generated gold too often, such as the Pillage relic and the Hand of Midas train carriage.
• Fixed a bug where the Ice & Fire relic did not show in the Relics menu after obtaining it.
• Fixed a bug where the game could crash if you failed an All-In but found a large number of carriages during All-In.

That's all for now! I greatly appreciate all of the feedback and bug reports from everyone that have helped make the game more stable and enjoyable.

The next patch, v0.9, is coming 5/30/2025 (American hours). I want to add more interesting things to spend money on in the late game, so look forward to that.
The game will be released from Early access (v1.0) on 6/26/2025.

Thanks, and enjoy!
