Hey everyone!
First of all, I want to give a huge thanks to everyone who's purchased and playtested Eavor during the Early Access so far - it really means a lot, and I'm thankful for all the feedback I've gotten! :D
(If you'd like to leave feedback, please checkout my Discord server, which isn linked in game)
Anyway, here are the patch notes!
Wave spawning system was reworked and balanced HEAVILY. Difficulty increase is now more consistent
Enemies can now spawn with all of a single type of augment, which gives them the added bonus of having a unique prefix to their name... See if you can find them all!
Smoothed weapon trail visual effects
Title screen logo is now pixelated to match the game's style
Reduced ALL stats. This should make the game feel more impactful
Reduced cost of chests, and cost ratio of multi-chests
Removed damage buff while rolling
Increased roll distance, and improved the feel of dodging
Weapon boosting no longer snaps to nearest 45° angle
Reduced the base speed of the player (NOTE: This is to help discourage 'kiting', which will continue to be balanced to make combat more interesting)
