Development Update #6: Round Bonuses, Extraction Improvements, and Gameplay Fixes

Hi everyone!

This update focuses on improving the flow of each match while rewarding players who take bigger risks.

The new Round Bonus system increases your earnings the longer you stay in a match, giving players another reason to push their luck instead of extracting early. Extraction has also received several improvements, including the ability to join another player's extraction and interrupt enemy extractions to create new opportunities for stealing valuable loot.

Alongside these gameplay additions, this update improves loot spawning, map generation, store layouts, UI polish, and includes a wide range of bug fixes to make matches feel smoother and more reliable.

Update Highlights

💰 Round Bonus

The longer you survive, the more you'll earn.

Each round now builds a bonus multiplier of up to 2.5x, rewarding players who stay in the match longer instead of extracting immediately. The multiplier can also be adjusted through match settings for custom games.

To balance this increased reward, players who fail to extract before the round ends will now lose 50% of everything they sold during that round.

🚐 Improved Extraction

Extraction is now more interactive than ever.

Players can now choose to join another player's extraction so everyone escapes together. However, extraction is no longer guaranteed. Opponents can interrupt an extraction by successfully tasing a player, creating new opportunities to steal their loot before they escape.

Extraction has also been improved with several quality of life changes and bug fixes.

🏪 Smarter World Generation

Loot and stores now feel more varied.

Store layouts have been expanded with additional variants, new shelving has been added for clothing stores, and loot spawning has been reworked with smarter placement logic to create more natural and interesting matches.
