Content update.

NEW character: Templar


The Templar is another slow but powerful character. She possesses auras which damage the entire screen over time. Like the Rogue, the Templar cannot run.

Alternate skin for the Templar will be added at a later time.


General Fixes
- All limited duration buffs will now refresh when activated again.
- Fixed a bug that triggered the Daily Login dialogue twice for new characters.
- Fixed a bug which allowed additional boss damage to apply to all normal tank enemies.
- Fixed the Brawler's "One Two" and "One Two Three" techs providing extra damage.
- Walk speed tech now applies to the Rogue's walk when the player double taps forward. The Rogue cannot run but players can still walk by double tapping forward.
- Increased enemy walk speed (100% faster) when they spawn as a wave. This should allow them to get to the player faster.
- Buffs no longer persist when the player dies.
- Tweaked the landing dust particle on the Brawler, Gunslinger and Rogue.
- Corrected the Assassin's Focused Blade tech description text.
- Increased amount of energy gained from landing level 2 charged standing heavy attacks.


Balance Update:
All character alternate special buffs (hold special to activate) have been rebalanced. The philosophy was to make them more useful by covering the character's weakness. We also kept in mind the reduce damage stacking in relation to their available reduction Techs (75% is the max damage reduction. Sorry, this is hidden).

Assassin
Increased Damage by 20%
Increased Movement by 20%
Reduce Damage by 20%

Brawler
Increased Damage by 20%
Increased Movement by 30%
Reduce Damage by 10%

Gunslinger

Holy Attack Mods now do 10% more damage against Demon enemies. Demon enemies are enemies which are first introduced in the Apex or Purgatory maps.

We added scaling which increases damage and decreases resurrection costs for players who are playing with a higher level host. This bonus applies to players who are atleast 5 levels below the host.

Next we will be looking at endgame content and adding more mods / endless levels.

Content Update!

NEW character: Rogue


Rogue is available to everyone after the update.

The Rogue has a fast but risky play style. She has a very powerful dash move with a low cooldown at the cost of low health. She also cannot run but has the fastest walk speed.

Alternate skin for the Rogue will be added at a later time.

General Fixes
- Pressing delete after deleting all of the characters in a save file will now reset the collected currency
- Currency for each save is now shown at the top of the Character Select screen
- Enemies now try to catch up faster to players across the screen when they are spawned
- Fixed a bug where projectiles could hit players during dash frames
- Added a block transition frame to all characters

Balance Changes
- Reduced Normal Warmachine drone damage by 50

Thanks for the support!

Next we will adding more content and quality of life improvements.

Content Update!

Added the Pet System.

The first pet is the Assistant: Inspector. It's basically the floating practice dummy in the lobby but he fights for you temporarily.

Generate the assistant in the Forge and equip the item in Gear.

Pets regenerate all health and revive after entering each area. They do have limited health and can die.

After completing the stage you will have to generate another assistant and equip it again.

The intention is give newer players an option to pay some credits to make progression slightly easier (Vouchers also work). Pets will die easily in harder encounters.

General Fixes
- Allow cancel while loading for remote clients
- Junkyard random secret area is 3 times more likely to spawn
- Pressing right on the locked maps on the map screen will change difficulties if unlocked
- Removed enemy waves in Raccoon secret areas

Thanks!

Next up should be the Rogue character, other improvements and content.
