Features & Improvements

Unlocks & Achievements Unlocked and locked items are now much easier to spot at a glance. Progress feels more rewarding!
Full Screen / Windowed Mode You can now freely switch between fullscreen and windowed modes just how you like it!
Steam Deck Improved compatibility and testing for a better handheld experience.
Resolution Improvements HUD bars and UI elements are now better positioned on 2560 x 1440 displays.
Visual Damage Feedback Taking damage now gives immediate visual feedback, no more confusion when you get hit!
Death Animations Added preview death animations for the player and enemies. (This update introduces a preview animation for one enemy type soon, each enemy will have its own unique death style!)
Dash Spawn Safety Dashing into freshly spawned enemies no longer ruins your run. Increased the minimum spawn distance from the player (now 22 units away, outside the viewport).
Loot Drops Reworked First Aid and Shield Armor drops are now balanced:
- Guaranteed no more than 2 of each per wave.
- No more waves with zero drops, but no overflooding either!

Bug Fixes

Random Game Freezes Improved overall game stability and reduced freezes.
Audio Startup Bug Fixed an issue where sometimes the game would start with no sound. If it happens, restarting will bring the audio back.
