Last week we said we were working on a new mechanic. And as we tested it we really loved it! So we have a new feature, the combo system. Some powerups will create cool combos that will powerup the player further.

Soundtrack

We also have a new soundtrack added to the game! Soon we’ll update the soundtrack DLC too!

New contents

Oh also a new powerup joined our ranks!
The Lucky Dice gives the player a chance to come back to life with some health when dying.

Also as for the combo system 5 combos will be available for now, but we plan to add more! Each one of them requires the player to collect 2 specific items, but we’ll keep which items a secret for now not to spoil the fun in finding them all.

Minimega Combo increases the player’s attack by 20%
Safe Haven Combo upgrades a certain drone’s defensive capacities
Corrosive solution Combo upgrades a drone to corrode your enemies
Wombo Combo makes your black paradox last 20% longer
Life Master Combo makes a certain powerup trigger more often

The Combo System adds a lot of possibilities for expanding the game! We want to add other combos to make less useful items more viable and to make the game way more interesting!
