v0.1.5 - Quivering Frost
Today's update introduces a new core concept: Arrows & the Quiver. The player starts with a quiver containing 6 basic arrows. When selecting an arrow upgrade (flame, ice, acid, or multi-arrow), it will replace one of the basic arrows in your quiver. Each shot, the next arrow is selected, and it comes back around. This way, you can predict which effect will come next instead of a random chance. You can add multiple special arrows to your quiver, or upgrade their effects. You can also increase the damage and shot speed of all arrows. If you select more than 6 special arrows, your total quiver size will increase.
I hope this is a welcome change, it does make things a bit more difficult since the multi shot and special effects are now separated, meaning you can't drop several pools of acid on a single shot or anything like that any more. I've reduced the spawn speeds accordingly to hopefully strike a similar balance as before.
Frost has also been given a slight buff, to bring it in line with the usefulness of the other effects. It will now deal damage over time, like fire does. Acid has also been given a damage boost.
