  Object Pooling

  Added object pooling for bullets and items (ammo, health, fuel pickups). A small change that should help keep your FPS steady while loads of objects are being created and destroyed each frame.

  v1.3

  TL:DR More juice, more visibility, and more weapon upgrades, more often! NEW WEAPON VARIANTS:-After upgrading a weapon using the Workshop upgrade, a second, stranger upgrade becomes available.-The Weapon Workshop now appears every 6 waves.THE LOOP:-The game now cycles through the 3 maps indefinitely. Reaching the shed area marks the end of a loop and brings an increase in difficulty.-Weapons now stay on the ground forever, persisting even when leaving the area. Maximum of 3 weapons per area. WEAPON CHANGES:-You can now increase a weapon's firerate beyond 1 bullet per frame.-Juiced up visuals and audio for most weapons.-The Plasma Rifle, now the "Plasma Ioniser", ELECTRICALLY OVERCHARGES shields. This causes them to explode and chain-react with other shields. This effect also applies to its grenade launcher upgrade.-Microwave Beam's giga beam deals 15% more damage. Its ONE EYED JACK beam spread is much tighter.-Microwave weapons no longer deal increased damage to irradiated enemies. Instead they irradiate enemies faster.-The Neutrino Cannon more reliably kills enemies that are packed together.-Increased the range of the Mag Cannon, Slam Cannon, and Plasma Ioniser.-CLOSED CYCLE RECYCLER for the Minigun no longer adds extra bullet penetration.-THUMPER for the Neutrino Cannon has a much increased range. KNOCKBACK ENHANCED:-All enemies now have varying levels of knockback resistance. -Low level knockback has been added to the SMG, Dragon and the Mag Cannon's shotgun mode. -Regular core dumps deal mid level knockback (just like the Slam Cannon). MISC:-Default engine heat capacity is now expanded to become to the recently added 'level 2' engine heat size.-Doomrippers flank you more often and are less predictable.-Added a bunch of stuff to the maps to make them feel more alive.-You can no longer run over the little dudes and chickens. They are your friends.-Removed mega shield-speeder wave. FIXES/QOL:-More audio/visuals when taking damage.-Reduced contrast of ground decals ...

  Whats In the works?

  Hey. I've been steadily working away at v1.3: Upping the Caliber. Its been taking a while because of the unfocused nature of this all-round improvement update. That isn't to say this update won't feature new game changing content, it very much will. THE NEW GAME CHANGING CONTENT: Guns, lots of guns. 9 more new super unique workshop variants in fact. With these additional weapons comes some changes to the game's structure, so you can modify your guns sooner and more frequently while still maintaining the challenge. As an example, the new workshop variant for the SMG turns it into an incredibly hot blowtorch: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44682929/ef59a6b62d898aff59abcd24cf73eb3e225ee02c.png And the Dragon's variant is a giant engine-heat-powered exploding slug: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44682929/b1b92bae69483428e81a8fa3195fa07248f8e3b7.png GENERAL IMPROVEMENTS: A large portion of the update will be visual and audio improvements to everything. Every weapon has gotten an healthy slathering of juice with fresh visuals and sounds. Tons of world audio added, like for example the airships hum, energy shields glorp, and Doomripper weak spots shatter. Each of the maps have new props, along with some small and large layout changes. The gameplay should feel better overall. Heres a short video showcasing the Dragon with its new visual effects and sounds: The update is still a little ways out, but its going to be a damn good one.
