damage taken scales with difficulty based heal reduction
1.3x dmg level 5 hard, 2x dmg level 13 why
ergodicity: 91->66% damage, no heals -> 1/2 size heals
negative feedback 0.5% -> 1% damage per missing health
negative entropy spawn heals for 33% missing health not 33 flat missing health
this means it caps at 3 health per level
tech - iceIX freeze effect lasts 2 seconds longer, spawn 10 coupling
perfect diamagnetism, standing wave
research is less common
path integral comes with 5% JUNK
there are fewer starting power ups on why difficulty
bug fixes:
fixed the text overflow issue on small screens
decoherence: if you get a tech that is banished it stops being banished
you can now have negative research
tech: virtual particles - mobs have a chance to spawn coupling power ups
old tech virtual particles renamed vacuum fluctuation
tech: exciton - mobs have a chance to spawn a boost
boosts are a power up that increases your damage for 10 seconds
old tech exciton renamed non-renewables
laser tech: quasiparticles - replace all ammo with boosts
added +20px to grid elements to prevent text spillover
bug fixes
new setting: level ban list
bug fix: removed a command to preventDefault on space key, this might break something else
new boss added to level - Temple
snake tails have a lower mass and whip around a bit
auto targeting no longer works for stealth mobs
snipers, sneakers, ghosters
snipers fire more often at high difficulty, but bullets move slower at all difficulties
hoppers have move gravity, so it feels like they are hopping a bit faster
field tech: patch - after cloaking recover 75% of last health lost using that much energy
taking damage now forces decloaking
field tech: dynamic equilibrium - increase damage by 5% the value of your last health loss
foam has less velocity after a mob it's stuck to dies
snakeBoss becomes vulnerable if you remove any of the first 3 body segments
body segments have more health
bug fix: quantum eraser now removes mobs in a more random order
it used to have a too low chance to remove bosses
tech: quantum eraser - for each mob left alive after you exit a level
kill a spawning mob with 100% duplication
symbiosis: bosses spawn a tech and also an ammo, research, and heal
when mobs dies lose 0.45 -> 0.5 max health
boson composite - when you move through mobs they drain a little bit of energy
incendiary ammunition makes bullets explode on impact with map
polyurethane foam now works for harpoons
reactor level: timeBoss is much faster, mineBoss does 50% mine more damage
all bosses spawn fewer numbers
spawning all 4 bosses spawns much fewer numbers
bug fixes
loaded a patch to matter.js physics engine 0.18 to fix issues with time dilation
tech: freezer burn - if a mob is frozen while below 33% health, it dies
tech: flash freeze - if a mob is above 66% health it's health is set to 66%
snakeBoss 1st tail mob is larger and farther from boss
parthenogenesis your duplication effects extend to duplicate mobs and bosses
WIMPs do 33% less harm (because they are hard to deal with on reactor)
MACHO 66->60% defense
axion 75%-> 100% of defense added to damage
full tech wording rewrite (I probably made a few typos)
increase damage by 10% -> +10% damage
20% fire delay reduction -> +20% fire rate
taking harm -> losing health
50% harm reduction -> +50% defense
new defense text effect
extra long minus sign - -> –
bug fixes
you can scroll through the tech and gun menus while selecting power ups
added another classic n-gon option in settings
tech: options exchange - canceling tech,gun,field has a 90% chance for a reroll
stabber mobs now stab 15% shorter distance, but they can stab more often
weak interaction gives 5->10 max energy per unused power up
