Update Patch Notes v1.0.1.0a

Patch Notes

New: Ranked Mode (Infrastructure Beta)

  • Ranked Mode has been implemented for initial testing, using the Demo rules (the original gameplay concept).

  • Unlike normal mode, the focus is on build-making, avoiding the "full build" style of spamming damage at the edge of the screen.

  • Rules:

    • Normal mode progress is not transferred to Ranked.

    • Each attempt starts from scratch: no upgrades and no level (LV).

    • Fixed amount of Energy (E) per difficulty; upgrades and resources do not carry over between matches.

Fixes

  • ✖ Fixed critical crashes.

This patch is intended only to test the ranked mode structure itself and look for possible bugs. The next patch will focus on streamlining mission aspects for ranked and some changes to the player's death flow, so the rhythm doesn't break between deaths.

In addition, there will be changes to the interface, specifically in the sub-stats, to increase the readability of extremely small texts, helping with the Steam Deck's visualization.

Issues, errors, crashes, or questions? Just get in touch.
