addedA major reason for this update is moving Gun Bombers to GameMaker Studio 2 for future compliance. Everything should hopefully work the same with some added performance gains - My laptop showed a roughly 20% increase in fps but your mileage may vary. Of course just updating the game engine isn't that interesting so we did more; You can now create your own Endless maps that come with their own leaderboards! At the same time we also removed the 2 player gap that used to be in Endless Coop mode. For more thrills we've introduced a new Challenge mode where we will occasionally showcase an interesting Endless map from the community. The Map Editor in general has had more love with handy shortcut keys and other new tools. Other notable mention is the return of the original Peekaboo mode as some players were keen on getting that back. This is an alternative option and doesn't replace the current mode. New
