Update 0.6.1

⚖ BALANCE

• "Plane" Platform: Health Max +30% → +20%.

• "Bipod" Mod:

  • Range & Accuracy +50% → +60%.

  • halted Platform Speed now returns to normal speed twice as fast.

  • now stops spinning brackets from spinning while active.

  • now stops Cerberus turrets from rotating.

  • now stops "Saucer" Platform movement.

  • now affects auto aim rotation speed.

• "Channel" Gadget: Speed while active -30% → -100%.

• Endless Mutations:

  • Supremacy: Exalted Microbe Health & Weight +200% → +300%.

  • Rampage: Enraged Microbe Damage +4 → +8.

  • Momentum: Microbe Speed growth rate doubled.

• It's now less likely for Microbes that are already wicked fast to spawn "Enraged" (but the # of Enraged Microbes that appear won't change).

🔄 CHANGES

• DATABASE / Arsenal: explosives now detonate when hitting the top of the screen.

• AddedSETUP Menuadded a one-time popup (that only new players will see) when starting a SHMUP Mode dive for the first time with a moving Platform (because I keep seeing players not understanding that they move vertically towards their crosshair only because they're using a Platform with Speed).

🔨 FIXES

• "Sanguine" Guardian: various Mods that would check if you're actively firing now won't think you are if you're holding fire before the Blood Moon rises.

• Gadget:

  • Channel: the Speed reduction while "channeling" wasn't being applied.

  • Stomp: sometimes, stomping microbes would still cause them to damage you.

• Weapons:

  • AATT "Critter Hatcher": Zap now works as expected.

  • ACGG "Thunderbounce Emitter": trail width now matches projectile width.

  • CGGG "BFG-9000":"INFERNO!" Powerpolyp now grants Burn.

  • Trailguns: last update broke their "constantly produce explosions while stuck with Sticky" behaviour.

• Mods:

  • Onion: consuming a Life no longer causes nanobot to shrink.

  • AdjustedAcceleratordescription tweaked so that, if the "Heat Buildup" stat isn't used, then it's still clear that Firerate and Velocity get increased.

• Gamepad / Steam Deck:

  • fixed not being unable to navigate to research buttons outside of the BUFFS page.

• BROOD Mode: the microbe DNA spawn curve was totally messed up, but now it's much smoother.

• RESEARCH Menu / BUFFS: Core Rate & Core Delay icons were swapped.

• Unlock conditions and RECORDS stats now properly account for Chip modifiers (won't apply retroactively).

• some untranslated text.

• some typos in Files.

• some beginner tutorial bugs.
