Interesting. I'll do some testing on my end to see if I can reproduce. 

I'd like to gather some more data on this -- Does the issue occur when the powerup sprite is still fully visible? Or is it partially out of view when you're unable to collect it?

I'm not sure -- I think it was still mostly on screen but starting to leave. It might just be that the hit box is a bit smaller than I was expecting

Gotcha. Yeah I'll check it out and see if I can make some adjustments.

Quick side note -- You do amazing work btw. Absolutely incredible shmup you made with Praxis Fighter -- You're one of the folks who inspired me to feel comfortable about making a single level shmup experience.

I would love to finish a roguelike that even comes close to the elegance of Into Ruins as well!

Hey, just wanted to follow up and let you know I was able to reproduce the powerup issue you mentioned and it should now be fixed in the v1.2 update.

Thanks for bringing it to my attention!

Awesome, thanks for the update! I played through again and finally managed to get through the game without getting hit, and sustaining my combo the whole time:

I like to aim for 3 options with 1 magnet powerup as that gives me a nice spread, and then collect weapon powerups after that.

Very nice! I find myself getting annoyed now if I can't sustain a full combo since I've playtested it so many times at this point :P

I typically go for the Options first as well. I've been trying to think of how I could have Magnet and Weapon synergize with each other better as I feel like there's still a missed opportunity there, but hopefully all three powerups are still useful.
