Bounty of One update for 2 March 2023

Hello fellow outlaws!

It's been 2 weeks and you know what that means, it update time! I know we haven't been able to release updates lately and I thank you very much for your patience! As we mention before, sometimes, a new system requires an enormous work under the surface, this was exactly the case here! Fortunately, we have been able to make it through!

As we hinted to before, this update is focuses mainly on reworking the progression within the game, the goal is to facilitate the onboarding of new players as well as give older players challenges to look forward to.

New player will start the game with a smaller pool of objects that are easy to understand and uses and will organically unlock new one by playing. This allows us to make sure that items that require a better understanding of the game will be unlocked once the player has a good grasp of the mechanics.
Older players will, on their end, be rewarded with new challenges to take on. Indeed the number of achievement has gone up from 20 to 77. They will also be able to spend the excess gold nugget they might have accumulated.

Adding achievement has required us to create a new backend system (which took some time) that will also allow us to add more of them in future update in an easier fashion.

Last time, we also did a poll regarding objects that you would like to see implemented in the game, here are the 5 most upvoted:

• With 156 votes : Ethereal Flame - Spawns an invincible minion that picks up coins for you, it also inflicts damage when it collides with an enemy
• With 113 votes : Godly Die: Your re-rolls for upgrades now raise the quality of the choices you have (up to mythic rarity for any type of upgrade). Gain 1 re-roll.
• With 62 votes : Last pull: When you take a hit, attracts all collectibles visible on the screen
• With 49 votes : Panic attack: Throws 3 knives in random directions for each 2 meters travelled
• And with 48 votes each :
  Desperate Burst - Whenever you get down to 1hp, kill all enemies on the screen (120 seconds cooldown).
  Relentless Momentum - Whenever you move, adds 10% to your area effect size and raises your damage by 5% for every 5 meter (max 10 times)

We will keep on creating polls regularly to know what you'd like to see in the game so if you want to take part in any of them, feel free to join our discord by clicking this button:

Finally, we fixed a few bugs here an there, tweaked a few things and updated a few visual assets, you know, the usual shenanigans.

That's it for today, you can check the full patch note below. See you soon!

Enjoy!
