Tiny Update #6

Well how about that, another update. It officially boggles the mind how lightning fast this update has come about. I say that because a few of these new enemies use lightning.

Here's some wonders to ponder:

Levels:

• Factory Cogs

• Factory Wires

Combat Characters:

• Zapprentice

• Blobes

• Waterminator

• Teardrop

• Mystick

• Wiry

• Brokin

Exploration Encounters:

• Little Investigator

Exploration Scenery:

• Factory Deck

• Sunny Woods

Charms:

• Bin of Begone

• Cursed Root

Tiles:

• Sea Spear

• Teardrop

• Branch

Achievements:

• Cat Coin Collector

Changes:

• Various small UI changes based on feedback

• Turn counter display makes more sense, starts on turn 1 now

• You can see the match pool now by hovering over characters and the turn counter

• Characters show their take damage reactions

• Fixed conversation buttons is the new default

• Status effect casts now follow the rules for statuses like wide, tall, drilleye etc

• Match Pool information is now exposed in various character/item/level descriptions

• Meta Novelty system: reduces repetition of enemies and some exploration encounters across runs

• Goose shop redesign

This tiny update contains a fair bit of content to flesh out The Heist story, with robotic scenery and characters. A new mechanic is introduced with the Bin of Begone, whereby you can trash tiles off the grid. Various important UI improvements will help with the game being more transparent with its inner workings. You'll now be able to see the "match pool" and how it is populated by characters, items and the level. A new meta novelty system keeps track of recent enemies and characters you have met across runs, and reduces the chance of repeating them too often. Also a tiny rat detective can be met and aided in its investigation.
