Powerups:

Power ups now drop from enemies they give random buffs once touched. some are better than others, while others are good early in the game and others are better late game. chance of power up drops decrease with each wave.

fixes

Fixed enemy detection.
Fixed how explosion damage is calculated
fixed Hit-scan projectile travel

This update fixed a lot of bugs and introduced many more I don't really remember them all and can't be bothered so I quote the secret rite:

"Other improvements and bug fixes"

I have another patch planned for late summer or autumn, where I'll try to rework and revamp the enemies and make them and the maps more interesting.

That's all for now, cheers.
