Wallpaper version: Here.
Big, experimental changes incoming! We've finally started moving loops away from "random chaos, good luck", and are heading towards a more curated approach. Loops now simply have different, harder enemy spawns, yet still a good load of messiness to them. We hope this poses more interesting, specific challenges while also upping the difficulty more consistently. We've also worked a lot on the two bosses that needed it most: the Technomancer and Throne II. We're super curious to find out what y'all think about these changes, and how far, or not far, loops will take everyone now!
We've also upgraded Steroids' B-skin, done a whole load of balancing, and toned down the universally beloved and critically acclaimed Van Spawns a tiny bit. You'll get about 300 more milliseconds to respond to them, and they'll try to no longer ram right into each other on spawn.
Either way, we think it's loads of good stuff. Please dive in and send us all the feedback you've got!
