Entity Strike – Patch Notes v0.43

Hey Survivors,

Here’s what’s new (and fixed!) in this update:

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.

Known Issues

• Custom death animations for all enemy types are coming soon! This update brings a sneak peek with one enemy type now featuring its own unique death animation.

• Some advanced visual effects, animations and UI polish are still WIP.

Thanks for playing and keep the feedback coming each suggestion moves the game forward! Team Entity Strike
