Spell Slingin' Tower Defense changes
4.0"Marjoram Crumpets"20 dec 2023
Happy [winter holiday] everyone! what better gift to give than balance changes?
damage up balance change| dmg +4 -> dmg +5
this spell wasn't ever terribly good since you could always use another projectile. now it's on-par damage-wise.
Random Projectile Aspect balance change| dmg +3 -> dmg +5
the initial intent was to make the damage lower to compensate for the variety of types. this failed.
nerfed multiplicative stat increases, replaced partially with additive.
spells will still have some multiplicative stats, just to a lesser degree. this is to combat the sheer power of just stacking a single spell, which is boring.
faster balance change| spd x2 -> spd x1.5, spd +50
damage up balance change| dmg +4 -> dmg +5
focus fire balance change| dmg x1.25 dmg +5 spd x2 -> dmg x1.15 dmg +10 spd x1.5 spd +50
Apart from balance, here comes new content!
New spell! Random Position!
randomizes a projectile's position upon spawning
yeah, it's less than useless, but it is pretty funny.
New spell! Growing Threat!
Increases a projectile's damage radius over time
New spell! OVERKILL!
transfers extra damage upon death to other monsters on the map
each time it transfers, the damage pool is cut in half
New maps! trial of sapping
2 maps built around losing mana as the map goes on.
these maps are unlocked upon beating the game.
they aren't terribly difficult if you know what you're doing. but maybe it'll inspire you to make some cool thing.
oh? not satisfied? how about some QoL?
custom gem creation will now remember the stats of the last gem you created
very welcome feature. makes it less tedious to make gems.
you can now replicate gems!
this will copy a gem's spells and stats.
do so by dropping a gem onto the create gem button (assuming you have enough mana)
