MANSION MAP
When talking to Bunber for the first time, he'll grant you the Mansion Map. Use the Mansion Map to participate in Free Play Mode! Select any stage or boss you'd like to visit and transport there in an instant!
Drag 'n drop any Candy or Curse you'd like into your TREASURE slots to experiment! It's a great way to practice - or just have some chaotic fun!
BALANCE CHANGES
• Phantom King will shoot exactly 4 eye candy peppermints instead of randomly shooting 4-8.
Developer Note: The randomness of this attack had implications on the speed running community and felt too long after 4.
• Phantom King / Phantom King Omega peppermints now have smaller hurtboxes.
• Phantom Worm's worm parts wait 10 frames before becoming invulnerable after being damaged. Allowing the player to damage a second worm part if the damage source is another entity.
Developer Note: Speeding up bosses was a big part of this patch
• Phantom Worm no longer moves slowly after attacking if it was damaged before attacking.
• Reduced spitter spider screen shake.
• Bubblegum Bones & Bubblegum Wraiths will now count towards the defeated count.
Developer Note: King's Beacon and Necro Scythe's were 2 of the lowest used flashlights in the game, we're hoping this change increases that.
• Reduced Fire Spirit's health to 5 from 6.
• Reduced Necro Witch's health to 5 from 7.
• Reduced Jack's health to 5 from 8.
• Reduced Phantom King's health to 4 from 6.
• Reduced Necro Scholar's health to 5 from 7.
• Reduced Pyro Jack's health to 6 from 8.
Developer Note: Most boss fights felt like they were taking too long to finish, we decided to lower the health of those that bothered us the most.
• Necro Scholar's falling skull attack now does not increase in speed when she's at a lower health.
Developer Note: The increase in speed felt unfair and too hard to dodge for most players.
• Hopscotch does not eat your souls anymore, he'll jump every 3 seconds.
Developer Note: We felt Hopscotch was under used because he was taking players souls.
IMPROVEMENTS
• Better error messages when trying to recover your account.
• Removed the Ads Free iAP from the store while the Ads Free Combo Pack is still on sale.
• Clicking the Ads Free button after a game will display Bunber and the price for purchase, if the launch sale is still active, the Ads Free Combo Pack will be shown instead.
• Removed the What's New popup for players that have already seen it.
ACCOUNT CHANGES
• Tako Account save uploads are less frequent than before to save us on server costs. Here are some tips for uploading your save:
1. Manually upload your save by clicking on your Tako Account Username in settings and clicking "Upload Save".
2. Putting the game into the background will automatically trigger a server save.
• You need to be connected to internet in order for Tako Account saves to be uploaded.
• Does not effect local saves, those that do not use the Tako Account system or need their save to be uploaded for any reason should not worry.
• Online saves are primarily for players that:
1. Want to delete the game but download it again.
2. Use multiple devices to play.
3. Want a backup in case their phone is damaged.
• Settings now has a button to see more account options, these include:
• Log out of your Tako Account.
• If you log out you are able to log back in or create a new account. This will copy your progress over to the new account.
• Upload your local save.
• Manually upload your local save to the server, since these uploads are less frequent now you may want to do this before playing on another device.
• Delete your save.
• Deleting your save will not delete your Tako account but just reset your progress.
