This update includes major adjustments to HP-related game balance, particularly to address the risk–reward imbalance in the latter half of the game.
New
Added the “Heart Server” gimmick.
Touching a Heart Server restores your HP to 3. If your HP is already 3 or higher, it becomes semi-transparent and nothing happens when touched.
Heart Servers always appear next to the TV and before boss fights, and may occasionally appear in regular areas as well.
Added the “Star Server” gimmick.
Touching a Star Server refills the ammo of all Hanabi you possess up to their initial maximum capacity. If no further refill is possible, it becomes semi-transparent and nothing happens when touched.
Star Servers always appear next to the TV and may occasionally appear in regular areas as well.
Changes
Because the TV area will now always contain both a Heart Server and a Star Server, the previous Version 1.3.1 behavior—restoring HP and refilling Hanabi ammo when touching the TV—has been removed.
Fixes
Fixed an issue where Voltamin would not appear in World 8.
Fixed an issue where upgrading the protagonist or Hanabi would unintentionally change the prices of candies within the area. (Item prices are meant to be determined upon entering the area and should not change afterward.)
Fixed an issue where the “Heart Spawn Frequency” difficulty setting was not being applied to Heart Up Candies.
Fixed an issue where more items than intended were placed in Area 2-D.
Adjustments
Voltamin’s heart bullets can no longer be erased by Hanabi.
During the 'Oumuamua fight, hearts will appear less frequently when the protagonist has relatively high HP.
Increased the overall spawn rate of hearts, which are healing items. Additionally, rooms with lower ranks now have a slightly higher chance of spawning heart-related items, while higher-ranked rooms have a slightly higher chance of spawning other item types.
Slightly reduced the spawn rate of “Ghost Hanabi” and “Decoy Hanabi” candies, which do not appear on the map.
Slightly reduced the spawn rate of Scouptor and Black Moldee in World 1.
