Update #3 on beta branch!

Good news everyone!

Pretty much since the release a week ago I've been working tirelessly to address as much of the feedback that all of you wonderful people shared as possible.

I am planning to release this big update with proper localization on Friday, but also didn't want to keep all these cool changes from you, so I've published it on a beta branch for now. This is what changed:

IMPROVEMENTS

• Everyone gets 5 free card disables after the first tutorial run

• Increased the maximum unlockable card disables from 20 to 25

• Added a reset button to the card disable screen

• Reworked hand UX: while dragging a card, all cards in hand are temporarily hidden to avoid accidental interactions and give more room to the return and sell buttons

• Reworked stacking UX: when dragging a card over another of the same kind, you're now presented with a confirmation similar to the upgrade cards: clicking on the right side of the card will swap them, clicking on the left side will stack them

• Added an additional check for the COLLECTION challenge; if you unlock the last card while attempting the billion, you will unlock the challenge as soon as you the the title screen

• The new game screen now defaults to the last difficulty you played

• While you're in a run, the MARATHON and SPRINT challenges show the total time spent in their tooltip's description

BUGFIXES

• Fixed an issue where all players had the prestige upgrade and played with that late game bonus & malus (sorry 'bout that one folks!)

• Fixed the REFINANCE description showing the stack icon even though the card is a unique

• Fixed an exploit where you could have multiple of the same uniques abusing the PLACEHOLDER card

• Fixed the silver balance not showing the localized abbreviations for big numbers

• Fixed the difficulty navigation working even though the button was disabled

BALANCING

• ECHO now slows the card on the right by 30%

• ECHO now only doubles the effect if the card on the right spent the full cycle in that slot

• INSURANCE is now a unique

• OVERTIME is now a unique

• REALLOCATE no longer works on uniques

• COPY's cycle time changed from 30s to 40s

• DUPLICATE's cycle time changed from 30s to 60s

• ALGO TRADING's cycle time changed from 5s to 4s

• LUCKY STREAK's cycle time changed from 5s to 4s

• SILVERSMITH's growth changed from $3 to $4

• IDLE's cycle time changed from 15s to 12s

• CASINO's cycle time changed from 25s to 30s

• CASINO's roll changed from -25/50 to -50/100

Your feedback has been great, thank you all for taking the time to share it with us.

There are some things that might need bigger reworks, like how stacking and randomness sometimes feel unrewarding — and I will keep thinking about these in the weeks to come. But I hope in the meantime this update will make as many of you happy as possible!

Have fun and make millions!
