Patch 1.1

New update! A little bit of new content for now, with more planned down the road. 

New doohickeys

• Delayed the start of every round by a few beats; indicated by "Ready" UI widget
• Added item prices on icons for the shop
• Added a new UI element that displays your current damage per shot, updating with buffs
• Added damage numbers on attacks, for those who enjoy numerically quantifying their violence
  • Damage dealt by the player is in black, damage dealt from agents and other effects is in blue
    • Massive damage will be rewarded with fancy gradient borders
• Added a toast notification system to the game HUD to keep track of buffs gained and removed due to items over the course of gameplay
• Reworked enemy scaling. Difficulty no longer scales linearly, and now grows significantly faster in the later rounds

Bug fixes

• Fixed a bug where the Hyperbullet's bonus still applied after it was sold
• Fixed a bug where the Knife Wallet was giving significantly higher bonuses than was intended (100x as much, to be precise...)
• Fixed a bug where Clearance Cashews' bonus didn't apply on the first round after you bought it 

Balance changes

The aim of these changes is to diversify strategies a bit, mellowing out some of the strongest strategies and creating some item anti-synergies. There are still plenty of ways to reach very high rounds using these - play around and find out!

• Raised starting cash to $10
• Money is now capped at $200
• Made a small subset of items rarer and harder to come by than the other more common items 
• Ruby Needle has been reworked: now gives a base +100% attack damage during Critical Time and this bonus increases by 10% every time it activates
• Hyperbullet now only gains power when Critical Time is NOT active. It also reduces its bonus by 20% after every round
• Endless Fudge now starts at +3 rather than +1; still scales at the same rate as before
• Gold Chain now gives $4 rather than $10
• Clearance Cashews now starts at 150% rather than 100%; de-scaling increment is still 10%
• Kinetic Marble now gives +50% bonus attack power rather than +25%
• Foam Dart bonus damage is now capped at +500
• Prehistoric TV now has a 3 second time penalty rather than 4
• Agent Headhunter damage raised from 25 to 75
• Made several price modifications:
  • Methoxyethylmercuric Acetate: $15 -> $8
  • Calculator Watch: $10 -> $5
  • Particle Ring: $10 -> $16
  • Agent Headhunter: $5 -> $3
  • Agent Good & Evil: $5 -> $8

If you have played Kinetic Agency, thank you and I hope you enjoy this update! If you haven't, now's probably a better time to start than release! :) As always, I am open to feedback, criticism, bug reports and suggested changes; please leave a comment here or on the project page.
