All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Features

  • Mid-game saving is here!
    The game will now autosave when you enter the shop. If you need to end the game before finishing a run, it will resume at the beginning of your last shop visit.

Improvements & Fixes

  • Optimized bullet trail rendering. This reduces the CPU load in bullet-heavy scenarios

  • We introduced additional levels to some of the upgrades in the upgrade menu, depicted with an extra ring in the screenshot below

  • We rearranged some of the upgrades in the upgrade menu

  • Smart equip just became a whole lot smarter (rarity now counts for 15 gear levels and upgrades count for 5)

  • Fixed an issue where the upgrade UI got stuck on screen if multiple overlays appeared almost simultaneously

  • Fixed an issue where the "complete a stage while activating B0b-33 no more than 2 times" mission goal was not completing.

  • Fixed an issue where the alien threat level milestone was not triggering correctly.

  • Fixed an issue where the ‘elite on spawned’ quirk was not working properly.

  • Fixed an issue with beam count gear not interacting with beam count upgrades

  • QoL: Added rich deposits communication to biome selection

  • QoL: Added stat deltas when comparing gear on the gear screen

  • QoL: Added new character portraits that match class mod and DLC skins on the end screen and in class mod masteries

  • QoL: Added a tooltip to smart equip

Balance changes

  • Huge changes in drop chance and rarity

    • Gear drop chance increased by ~40%

    • Gear inventory limit increased from 102 to 150
