Patch #04: Balancing and Bug Fixes

Today's patch is mostly about bug fixing, including a fix to lags introduce with the last patch, but I took the opportunity to make some extra changes, including the removal of scoring penalty from taking damage and increasing occurence of random events in endless among other things.

Next patch will be the Chaos Beasts update coming on March 9th.
