  • Coin rewards - first Normal clears now pay 28–36 coins; repeat clears usually pay 10. Harder first clears still pay more. Failed attempts pay 2 coins per completed wave.

  • Shop prices - Hair Trigger costs 100, Spare Heart 80, and one pulse refill 35. Choose between saving for gear and buying ammunition.

  • Saved pulses - start with three charges once, then buy replacements. Remaining charges carry across stages, retries, menus and relaunches, capped at three.

  • Coin conversion - existing balances convert once at 10 old coins to 1 new coin, rounded down. Old unused gear refunds use the converted values too.

  • Competitive play - pulses are normal ammunition and remain eligible for scores and achievements. Trigger and heart gear retain the existing assisted-run rules.
