Early Access Update v0.097 — Tuning Fork Tower Overhaul: Resonance Charge

Hello Agents,

The Tuning Fork has been completely reimagined. What was once a passive aura that silently buffed every tower in range is now an active, single-target charging support tower with a full sound/vibration theme, custom shaders, synthesized audio, and a satisfying charge-and-boost gameplay loop.

🔱 Tuning Fork — "Resonance Charge" Mechanic

• SCAN: The fork searches for a nearby tower that is actively fighting enemies.

• CHARGE: Locks on and channels sound energy for 3 seconds — a visible cone of sound waves flows from the fork to its target.

• BOOST: On completion, the target tower receives a 25% attack speed boost for 6 seconds — twice the charge duration.

• REPEAT: The fork immediately scans for the next attacking tower in range and begins charging again.

🎨 Full Visual Overhaul

• Screen-Space Waveform Body Shader — flowing sine waveforms on the fork's surface

• Sound-Wave Charge Cone — animated concentric rings from fork to target during charging

• Waveform Ring Buff Indicator — circular oscilloscope torus + frequency bar equalizer on boosted towers

• Sound-Themed AOE — rippling concentric rings in the range circle
