Devlogs

v1.2

Boomeraxe
A downloadable game for Windows

Bugs:

  • Fixed boss health bar visually overflowing at start of 2nd floor boss fight
  • Fixed rare crash if multiple enemies were killed during the same frame the 3rd floor boss was defeated
  • Fixed dying while leaving a room causing strange behaviour

Balance:

4th Floor Midboss

  • Dark Cassowary health reduced from 1000 to 800

3rd Floor Boss

  • Health reduced from 2000 to 1600
  • Radial bullets now all rotate at same speed
  • Ants can no longer shoot while being launched from hill

2nd Floor Boss

  • Head health reduced from 900 to 750

Frill Lizard

  • Reduced dash speed from 10 to 8.5
  • Increased spawn cost from 2 to 3 (you'll see fewer per room)

Meta Progression:

  • Runlockables no longer cost coins
  • Keepies prices adjusted
  • Coin rewards lowered from 50 each to 25 each
  • For clarity, changed description of a Keepy from "Helmets give +1 ricochet damage" to "Collecting helmets gives +1 ricochet damage"

Powerups:

  • Pierce now also grants +1 ricochet damage
  • Loyal now also grants +1 ricochet damage
  • Pausing during a run now lists your current powerups (if you have any)
  • Names of enhanced powerups are now coloured red for clarity (more changes to come to communicating this mechanic more clearly to the player)
  • Changed name of "Spin Specialist" to "Spincialist" (because you gotta)

Misc:

  • Game no longer launches in exclusive fullscreen by default, since this was causing issues with unfocusing the game process on linux via proton.
