The boss was supposed to be a lot cooler but I ran out of tokens.

I also want to redo the music sometime (the boss theme is a reuse from a previous project).


Update v2c    (April 28, 2023)

Small fixes, tweaks, and new item additions.

- Shotgun weapon now fires every 1.6 seconds again, but the pellets travel slightly faster.
- Blue Adaptive Weaponry has a 7% proc chance instead of 5%.
- Enforcers now shoot slightly slower.
- Reduced the effectiveness of Engine Booster upgrades down to 6% and 12%.
- Radial Blast no longer deals damage and has a 5 second cooldown.
- Added Bomb Shot, a Blue item that gives shots a chance on hit to explode for 1 damage in a small radius.
- Added Power Shot, giving shots a chance on hit to deal knockback.
- Added Repair, a Green item that repairs 4 Hull on pickup.


Update v2d    (April 30, 2023)

This is probably the last update I will do for this.

- Removed Power Shot, because the way I implemented it makes it not very useful, but I don't have any more tokens to remedy it.
- It is instead replaced with Reactive Blast, which releases a damaging blast on taking Hull damage.
- Items that generate a damaging ring (e.g., Explosive Weaponry) can now proc on-hit items (with the exception of Radial Blast).
- Buffed Hull Plating proc chance to 30%.
- Buffed Chargers in Hard Mode.


Update v2e    (Dec 18, 2023)

- Decreased acceleration time to maximum speed and time to slow down.
- Laser weapon now deals +1 damage per pierce (for each individual shot) (weapon damage items still use the base value of 2 though).
- Buffed Bomb Shot proc chance, radius, and damage (deals weapon damage now); can no longer proc on-hit items.
- Buffed Reactive Blast damage to 3 and 5.
- Buffed Repair to restore 5 Hull.

Really fun! It's a little unclear; when I get multiple missile upgrades, does it increase the frequency that they spawn at? or does it just fire multiple missiles every 6 seconds?

Glad you enjoyed it!

Each Missile Launcher has its own timer which starts when you pick it up.
