v1.1.0 — Pact of the Singularity

v1.1.0 — Pact of the Singularity

Sign the Pact. Cross the Horizon. The void rewards the bold. The first major post-launch expansion is here. Forge dangerous bargains with the Pact System, wield 15 new evolution modules, breach the Black Hole anomaly to face a brand-new boss, grind the daily Boss Rush, and build up your Idle Colony between runs.

⟢ Pact System

A new PACT scene unlocks at Stage 5. Before each run, choose 1 of 9 contracts (NONE + 8 random) that trade risk for power.

• Contracts modify damage, fire rate, defense, and economy

• Re-rolls are locked until you reach Level 10 or clear the stage — commitment matters

• Hotkeys [1-4] for fast selection

• Lobby-themed redesign with sigil and rune ribbon

⟢ 15 New Evolution Modules

• Tempest Corona — lightning corona ring

• Gauss Tempest — railgun storm

• Prismatic Glacier — refracted ice shards

• Entropy Sink — decay zone that drains stats

• Phase Kinesis — short-range blink strikes

• Toxic Bloom — spreading poison flora

• Hive Chronos — time-locked drone swarm

Singularity Wave (7)

• Dedicated Black Hole scene with full run-state snapshot and restore

• Fully localized across all supported languages

⟢ Boss Rush Mode

A pure DPS-check daily mode. No level-ups, no escape — just you and the boss.

• Boss Parts drop as rewards — active and passive equipment slots

• New Equipment Scene for fitting parts to your ship

• Boss Part Archive tracks every component you've collected

⟢ Idle Colony

A persistent layer that grows while you're away.

• Two parallel colonies: Compound and Core

• 5-plot pentagon layout, tiered plots, base upgrades, 8 plot types per colony

• Homing artifact removed

⟢ Bug Fixes

• Spore Launcher — fixed eastward drift off-screen

• Mach Blade — slash fade and sweep readability improved

• Module Library — first-entry tab render race fixed

• Stun cap — 6000ms ceiling prevents runaway freeze chains

• Particle counts trimmed 25–40% for smoother performance

⟢ System & Technical

• Gamepad rewrite — unified spatial navigation across every menu

• Achievement reconcile — runs at boot to repair drift from offline play

• Weekly Seed — 3 attempts per day with UTC reset
