Release Notes for Peglin

v0.8.22 Patch Notes

Changes and New Content

Unity Update from 2019 to 2021 LTS - This should (hopefully) be an invisible/unnoticeable update but we were starting to run into some deprecation issues and it was time to get up to a newer version.
Display changes - It was time to try and fix some of our pixel sins and reduce the amount of awkward pixel scaling that could happen. You'll notice that some scenes have moved around a little bit, and while it'll take a little getting used to they hopefully look a little better now than they did before, especially when played at non-1080p resolutions.
New game/Continue flow has changed to avoid the popups and speed up the process a little bit.
Gardener's Gloves and Salt Shaker have finally returned, with completely reworked effects that should be a little more useful than they were before! (Not that that was a high bar to beat...)
[New Rare Relic] Grinding Monstera - When an enemy is defeated, gain 1 Max HP.
[New Rare Relic] Sash of Focus - Prevent the next lethal damage you would receive
[New Rare Relic] Ice Rod - Every projectile attack gains Pierce 1 (stacks with existing pierce)
New art for Defresh Potion (it's an actual potion now!)
Bramball's damage has been increased and self-damage has been added to it.

Bugfixes

Controller/keyboard flow fixed for the Run Summary screen and when adding an orb after battle.
Round Guard no longer provides damage immunity when navigating if battle was won by reloading.
Leaving the map open when going back to the map no longer prevents firing until the map is opened & closed again.
The issue where loading a save could lead to a map with no visible nodes should be fixed.
When Restorb Lv.3 adds Max HP, it now correctly heals for that amount as well.
When Max HP increasing relics are gained in-battle, your HP should immediately visually display the increase instead of only updating in your next battle/scenario.
Necorbmancer + Defresh Potion now plays more nicely with Brick Pegs.
Gift That Keeps Giving + Heavy Shaft Potion + Brick Pegs should no longer be able to trap orbs.
Concentrication prediction and collision have been fixed
Fire Button no longer appears when navigating post-battle rewards with controller or keyboard
Pegs converted to bombs on the Invisible Mines Miniboss should no longer appear upside down

Update v0.8.10 (December 2nd, 2022)

Fixed Bug where Bad Cheese build would prevent firing for navigation
Molten Mantle changed to deal its damage every 2nd coin collected, however:
Chip damage has been changed so that the next enemy will start to spawn in if all existing enemies are defeated during the shot (further improvements are coming to this soo to address potential animation race conditions leaving no enemies on board when bombs are thrown)
Pause Menu correctly pauses time again, avoiding (a surprising amount of) issues
Fix for the discard action potentially preventing firing the next shot.

Update v0.8.9 (December 1st, 2022)

New Content and Changes

New Relic (Common): Peglinero's Pendant - Collected coins contribute to damage (acting as if a peg had been hit).
New Relic (Rare): Navigationflation - Coins collected during navigation are worth 4 gold instead of 1.
New Relic (Rare): Refillosopher's Stone - 2 coins are added to the board every time it is refreshed.
New Relic (Rare): Duplication Potion - When Refresh or Crit pegs would move, they instead duplicate to the new position and leave a stationary copy in their previous position.
New Relic (Boss): Molten Mantle - Coins no longer provide gold, but instead deal your shot's current total damage to the targeted enemy.
Alchemist's Cookbook no longer reduces player bomb damage.
Terriball has had its proper art implemented.
Shield Mage has had its art updated to better display its new Shield Bash attack.
Egg is now available in custom loadouts.

Bugfixes

Haglin's Shop no longer breaks when the player enters with almost every available relic.
Flying Sapper Minions can now be hit when the player has the Grabby Hand relic.
Recombombulator now works as expected with bombs on the Rotating Refresh stage.
End-of-battle orb addition no longer allows your gold to go into the negative.
Haglin's Satchel no longer grants orbs that should only be obtainable via scenarios.
Treasure Room Click-To-Aim fire button now appears less awkwardly.

v0.8.9 addendum:

Castle Map generation has been returned to normal

Update v0.8.6 (November 23th, 2022)

Content Changes

[New Relic] Molten Gold - Battles start with 5 more gold available.
When playing with Cruciball off, or up to Cruciball 7, players now get a small amount of starting gold.
Haglin orb removal cost has been reduced to 30 (increased by 15 with each orb removed)
Several early battles have been tweaked to allow for easier collection of gold or more gold added in those particular battles.
Bullyball now updates its displayed damage when used with the Wand of Skulltimate Power.
Pausing no longer sets the timescale back to 1x

Bugfixes

Controller button hookups have been fixed across several screens.
New Helpful Spirits event no longer breaks when encountered with a Mirrorb as your only level 1 orb.
Brick Refresh Pegs can no longer be shielded.
Custom Start Catalogue no longer duplicates orbs when reopening it.
Shops can now properly appear in '?' spaces.
Peglin's health should now appear properly in Scenarios in Cruciball 14+ when the player reaches one before taking any damage.

Fixed Electorbmagnet Attack visual (no longer appears as a stone).
Magnetic orbs should no longer get stuck on dull pegs.
Credits page has been fixed.
Post-Battle Upgrade Button should no longer visually overflow its text in longer languages

And one leftover patch note that was missed from v0.8.4:

If the Shield Mage reaches over 300 Ballwark it will remove all Ballwark, break all Shield Pegs on the board, and perform a special attack. This is to prevent soft-lock scenarios where the Shield Mage is gaining too much shield every turn but is unable to defeat the player for one reason or another.

Update v0.8.5 (November 19th, 2022)

Big Systemic Changes

Coins can now be obtained in battles, and Peglin’s post-battle additions and upgrades now cost coins, enabling you to add and/or upgrade orbs multiple
times after each battle! Only offered orbs that don't fit your build? Save that gold up for another battle or for Haglin’s Shop.
Haglin has finally set up their shop! (Though you might still catch them for a free sample). Save up some coins for a wider selection of orbs and relics, and the ability to remove orbs!
Map Generation is now guaranteed to at least have a few Chests, Elites, and Shops instead of being completely random.
Orbs have been split into rarity. This will help us roll out things that are a little bit more broken, and give us other ways to balance content other than tacking on downsides or reducing their strengths, which we know has been a source of frustration in the past!
Class relics - This will be more exciting when we release classes in the next couple of months, but for now Peglin’s Peglintuition starting relic will help reduce the inherent randomness of having access to all orbs & relics!

Update v0.7.42 (August 3rd, 2022)

New Features & Content

New Boss: The Super Sapper! This boss brings some unique pegboard mechanics and both a strong offense and defense to provide a nefarious challenge. You could be one of the first people to ever earn the achievement for taking down the Super Sapper!
New Miniboss: The Shield Mage; This miniboss is an expert in the arts of shielding both itself and pegs. Every attack it throws at you will cause more pegs to be shielded, and this enemy will gain more Ballwark each turn depending on how many shielded pegs there are! Take this foe down quickly or you'll find yourself completely walled out and at its mercy.
Shield Peg Mechanics: In addition to the Shield Mage's shield peg utilization, the Shield Knights have found out how to use their shields to block pegs on the pegboard! In some maps these shields will apply their shields to random pegs (shield shield shield), but in others they have their attention focused on protecting new bombs that have appeared in the castle. However, destroying one of the shields (without just sniping its knight) will cause several of these peg shields to break immediately!
Custom loadouts! A long-requested feature makes its way into Peglin. If you've ever wanted to try out a particular combination of orbs and/or relics you no longer have to rely on mods to do so. This feature is still under development and will see many more improvements as we work our way to v1.0, but it will be an extremely useful tool in the meantime!
New Orb: Etherwheel; This orb knows the true meaning of "leave no trace". When it leaves the pegboard, it will refresh the board behind it and ensure the next shot is set up for success!
New Relic: Refresher Course; This new relic provides another benefit to keeping your board topped up: every 5 reloads will grant you 1 Muscircle or 1 Spinesse!

Balance Changes & Feature Improvements

Demon Wall Castle Boss HP reduced slightly
Castle Levels have had more bombs added to be more reasonable for non-AOE damage.
Mines Enemy, Miniboss, and Boss have had their Cruciball bonus HP reduced across the board
Slight Qaballistic Ruins damage & healing buffs
Bomb added to Turned Knight Mines Miniboss pegboard
Weighted Chip no longer has a x0 slot. Instead has 2 x0.5 slots that deal navigation damage when triggered.
Perfected Reactant dmg reduced from 20 -> 15
Critiball peg conversion nerfed to 9/7
Jack-Orb-Lantern damage reduced, increased looping proved to be a sufficient upgrade
Blind no longer provides +10% flat miss chance

Bugfixes

Enemies should no longer get stuck at 0 HP (Or leave their health bar behind when defeated)
External refresh effects (Refreshiv, Refreshield) are less likely to remove a refresh peg from the board.
Scrolling the parchment map with speedup active should now behave more reasonably
Pausing the game should now visually reflect the fact that it stops the x1.5/x2.0 speedups and should more easily allow players to re-enable the speedup.

Update v0.7.36 (July 12th, 2022)

Refresh limit added so that Refreshorb + Gift That Keeps Giving + Moving Pegs should no longer cause softlocks
Boss minions should no longer take an extra turn after the boss has been defeated.
Safety check added for enemies that have had their health reduced to 0 but haven't died yet (we are still working to identify the exact cause of this but it is framerate dependent and quite difficult to reproduce unfortunately)
Crit Brick Pegs were not being reset to non-crit after the shot had completed.

Update v0.7.35 (July 6th, 2022)

Jack-Orb-Lantern Orb and Attack art updated
Safety Net art update (begone programmer art!)
Fixes for Brick Pegs trapping certain orbs and causing softlocks.
Map View Scrollwheel improvements (still not perfect, but should be better for now at least!)
Refresh SFX was sometimes not playing when the board was refreshed via a Crit Peg

Update v0.7.34 (June 30th, 2022)

New Content

[Orb] Jack-Orb-Lantern: Instead of triggering a slot and disappearing, it returns to the top of the board (1/2/3) times.
[Relic] Pumpkin π: One slot will become a portal that will teleport your orb back to the top of the pegboard (up to 3x per shot).
[Relic] Safety Net: Orbs start with 5 peg's worth of damage.

Balance & General Changes

Bats now have an attack animation
Crit Fleece has been changed to stack the crit damage instead of multiplying it exponentially. It will now pack more punch at fewer crit counts and should no longer have the potential to overflow damage.

Concentrication display icon has been set to the correct size.
Buckler no longer prevents Orboros self-damage (as intended), the Orboros does not like being discarded... (the Orboros self-damage was added last update because the Cheese combo was a little too easy to achieve. It is still very possible, it will just require an additional step/combo piece out of several options available)
Visually reversed pegs in one Stump layout have been fixed.

Update v0.7.28 (June 20th, 2022)

Haglin's Satchel should now grant the correct number of orbs and upgrades.

Update v0.7.27 (June 19th, 2022)

New Features

Speedup Mode: This has been requested a lot and we've heard you loud and clear! In the options menu you can choose between a 1.5x, 2x, or 3x toggle or hold, and in-game you can speed up map movement, peboard action, and enemy turns!

New Encounters

There's a new-old enemy that's been hinted at in our art for quite a while, and 3 new Forest encounters featuring it!

New Orbs

Sworb: A simple but effective damage dealer.
Sphear: A simple attack with increasing pierce each level.
Critiball: A low-damage (usually..) orb that can fill the board with crit pegs to enhance your next few shots.
Morbidorb: (Yep we caved, it's finally morbin' time..) An orb that Activates previously popped pegs that it passes through.
Necorbmancer: Only collides with popped pegs, and refreshes them back into unpopped pegs. Tricky to use but it can be a good way to set up your next shot, and it has pretty high damage to boot!
Concentrication: Pierces through all regular pegs and only bounces off of Refresh, Crits, and Bombs. Perfect for hitting a hard-to-hit refresh, or for showing off your style shots.
Ohmygorb: The Omegorb's angry cousin. Attacks all enemies with high damage, but destroys
any peg it hits...

New Relics

(Common) Spiral Slayer: Start each combat with 1 Muscircle (+1/+0 for all attacks)
(Common) Shrewd Scales: Gain 1 Ballance on each reload (+1/+1 for all attacks)
(Common) Pocket Sand: When you take melee damage, apply Blind 10 to the attacker.

(Boss) Haglin's Satchel: Add 2 random orbs to your deck and then randomly upgrade orbs 4 times.

Damage slightly lowered in Duplication & Removal mirror scenarios
New keywords (Hit, Activate, and Pop) to make certain content more understandable.
Overflow and Echo have been given their own keywords.
As part of the above, Orbsium now applies Glorious SuffeRing boosts multiple times (but not all relic effects have been moved to the new Activate logic yet)
Orboros now deals 4 self-damage on discard.

Modified Enemy Health UI to make text easier to read, especially on lower resolutions or smaller screens.
The Allorbnothing at level 3 now gains an ability that causes any buffs to regular damage to instead apply to crit. (So the basic blade applies (+0/+1) instead, and the Power Glove instead applies (+0/+2)!
New Orb: Extra-Orbinary - We liked the new effect of the Allorbnothing so much that we had to make its counterpart. The Extra-Orbinary has high regular damage and at level 3 gains "Effects that would apply (+X/+Y) instead apply (+(X+Y)/+0)
These two orbs have some experimental new art as we consider upgrading all of our orb art to 16x16 (currently many of them are 9x9, but that doesn't give us enough detail to support the number of orbs we're aiming for), definitely let us know how you feel about the new art!
New Relic - Puppet: Prevent the first time you would take damage each battle.
Decoy Orb art upgrade - With the puppet we introduced a new system where some orbs would go grayscale when no longer usable, but the decoy orb was already so gray that you couldn't tell! So we updated its art to be a bit more of a decoy :)
New Relic - Complex Claw: Attacks get (+0/+1), the counterpart of the Basic Blade
Parchment added to Cruciball level description to help make it easier to read.
Easy Shield Encounter map tweaked to help avoid multiballs getting stuck while we work on a more robust fix

Self-damage from orbs correctly triggers Ring of Indignation again.
The Cake relic no longer disappears visually when saving & reloading
Turned man movement returned to 2 slots

Orbsium now correctly triggers crits multiple times after Gift That Keeps Giving has been obtained

Defeating an enemy with non-attack damage should no longer result in there being no enemies on the board with an extra shot required to end the battle.
