Daily Update #8 - Loot Persistence, Explosion Weapon Adjustments, and More!

Hi everyone!

It's now been 8 days since I started daily updates, not sure how long it'll last but I'm definitely continuing to do it while there's enough stuff to fit into them! Today's patch is a pretty good one, more incremental but still has a bunch of nice quality of life changes, I hope you like it!

Also, if you're enjoying the game, I would REALLY appreciate it if you reviewed it. It's the best thing you can do to support the game if you're enjoying it!

Anyways, below are the patch notes!

  • Made it such that you can press and hold upgrade buttons in order to buy them as long as you're holding it down

  • Added yet another fix to hopefully solve the "mouse pulling" bug

  • Made it such that loot now stays in the game across play sessions, even if you close the game

  • Fixed bug that caused your resolution not to save if you changed it by clicking on the game window with right click and using the scroll wheel to adjust it

  • Made it such that loot trashed from your inventory gives you money, the same way that loot that you can pick up does

  • Fixed bug that made it such that loot that reduces HP could sometimes give you extra HP

  • Fixed bug that made it such that the Explosion weapon sometimes couldn't hit bosses

  • Fixed bug that caused the Explosion weapon to not show damage numbers when you hit bosses

- Conrad, Lead Developer
