Minor Update: Balance Royal Messenger and More!

Don't Kill the Messenger(Bird)
A browser game made in HTML5

Greetings!

Thank you for participating the the Alpha testing of Don't Kill the Messenger(Bird). So far I've heard a lot of people are finding the Royal Messenger(Griffin) unrewarding, so I've adjusted how it's health scales and spread it out a bit. Hopefully this makes runs more dynamic and enjoyable.


I also found a bug that was causing fractional tokens (the money in the game) to be rounded down. You should notice that you earn more tokens, faster in a run.

I've also lowered the starting cost of upgrades and reduced their scaling so you can buy more early game.

Thank you all for the feed back you've been giving me. Upcoming features include more Royal Messengers that, with hope, make future seasons more challenging and rewards and a few UI touch ups that might make the game play clearer.
