Thanks for playing! In this version the most reported bugs are the Slow/Ice and the Fireballs not registering. Im pretty sure I’ve figured the Slow one out, and regarding your bug I’ve never had reports of that happening on turtles. Normally it was just on the red catterpillars. Im assuming that the bug is due to having to process the collisions rly quickly at a high bullet speed. The way Im working this out is by optimising the game in other areas so more processing power can be atributed to collision detection. The thing is that I was never able to replicate this bug so its a bit tricky to solve it since I cant just test it

Edit: If you are interested in the state of the development I often share updates on the discord server

I've played this quite a lot as its a really solid and enjoyable game. But there are times when I'm way past the wave 60 mark (like wave 120 and beyond) and I'll still die because I can't hit the turtles.

I'd say 75% of the time if you pass wave 60, you can go endless. But for some reason there have been times where my fireballs just spam over and over and *MAYBE* 1-10 of my hits land on them. Its only when its a few left and chain lightning doesn't bounce, and if lava pools don't last long enough for them to stand in it from other turtle deaths.

So even wave 100+ if you don't have existing lava and can't chain lightning to them, turtles can easily reach you and just tick you down. Its the same hit issue that others have mentioned regarding the red worms. Just saying it can and does happen with turtles past 60 as well.

Ah! I can tell you why that's happening, the fireballs are simply going to fast to collide with the entity (or at least that's my running theory) it fixes if you go to normal speed though, so there's that.
