I also have some exciting news

I’ve started working on the idea for my next game! I’m not ready to show it just yet, but I will be revealing it sometime next year. For now, here is what’s new in this version: Gameplay & Upgrades Added: A damage cooldown so you don’t take damage too fast after getting hit.

More coin rewards for beating levels and bosses.

Added

A Stats button that appears after you beat all 30 levels.

Particles are now destroyed correctly to prevent lag or crashes.
