Upgrading the Arsenal (v1.3.0 in dev)

Combo Defender
A browser game made in HTML5

Combo Defender v1.3.0 is looking to be promising, it will have a third DNA slot and; most importantly; a second weapon.

The addition of having 2 weapons at once is to help with the fact that if you pick [C] or get another bad DNA weapon you're pretty much screwed. Having 2 weapons will help let players survive longer (although, [CA/AC] is a pretty good weapon) and will allow amazing weapon combos like double [BB].

There will also be a third DNA slot which will be a nightmare for me and a net good for player enjoyment. Triple DNA weapon (like [AAA], and [CCC]) will be the hardest to make, since double DNA weapons are already designed to be very good ([CC] isn't exactly very good so that will be an easier upgrade). Some of the likely hard combos to create are [ABC] due to having all DNA values, and [CCA] + [CCB] due to the dominance of the [C] value. of course, DNA strands with 2 [C] values can always be a combo of [CC] and the other DNA value.

Some assets will have to be put in different layers which may take a while, the assets for all DNA strand also need to be shrunken to make room for the third value and second weapon.

Combo defender v1.3.0 should likely be releasing today or tomorrow.
