Features
Beast animation revamp

We’ve moved to a new animation system for all the beasts, greatly smoothing out their animations and leading the way for some interesting stuff in the future. It also reduces their filesize/memory usage by up to 75%.

New Mutation: Healthy Hearts

• Effect: Max Health +2
  
• Max Level: 1
  
• Tier: Advanced

Challenges

• Six new types of Challenges
  
• Challenge Rank leaderboard
  
• Can now be completed after each wave, instead of only on Escape/Capture
  
• Insane Challenges now worth an extra star
  
• Challenge toasts will now be queued and play in order when completing multiple Challenges at once

Changes
Mutations

• Bulwark
  
  • Since the shield activates at critical health, we want to make sure it provides a solid amount of protection, especially compared to Hallowed Bastion’s shield at the beginning of every wave.
    
  • Duration: 15-35 → 20-45 seconds
  
  
• Total Rampage
  
  • The increased time limit was making this mutation a bit too good at granting Scrap, basically making it a requirement for top scores. By removing it and increasing the Scrap increase, it’s still super useful, but less of a must-have for the leaderboards.
    
  • Rampage Time Limit: 10-50% → 0%
    
  • Rampage Scrap Increase: 20-100% → 20-120%

Other

• Health Bots now spawn in early Survival waves
  
• Lowered memory usage of several enemies
  
• Title screen now shows a loading progress bar and will automatically load into the game when done
  
• Can now pause and quit during “breakout”
  
• You may now be prompted periodically to rate the game. Please do, it really helps us out!

Bugs Fixed

• Fixed the display speed of Plink’s chat on certain devices (is now much faster)
  
• Leaderboard on game over would sometimes never report your rank
  
• [iOS] Leaderboard on game over would incorrectly display your social rank instead of global rank
  
• [iOS] Fixed link to rate the game
  
• Tutorial on game over could incorrectly be skipped when waiting for leaderboard rank

Currently the game is mostly luck based when it comes to mutations. I mean wouldn't it be great if you can pre-select the mutation that should appear when you're playing... More strategy and less luck dependency. The order in which the mutation appear can be set too for more/better strategy. The pre-selection of mutation can be 20?? Already mutated mutation can re-appear on next level, but cannot be selected obviously.. So? Feedback??
