Asymmetric survival: one Maniac hunts the town while Survivors mine, build and hold out until the final dawn.
Towers 2.0: new models, projectiles & explosions
A changelist for Panic Balance.
🎁 Added
- New models for all attack towers: rotating tops track the Maniac, the missile battery swivels its launch rack, watchtowers shoot from a bow
- Real projectiles: arrows, ice arrows, cast-iron mortar cannonballs and missiles launched right off the rack
- Cannonballs and missiles can be dodged - damage is dealt by the explosion at the impact point, and mortar shells arc into the ground
- Explosion effects with fire and smoke, ice trails, missile exhaust flames, muzzle flashes and explosion sounds
🧼 Improved
- Towers now fire only after actually turning to face the target
- Rain is much denser and splashes are visible twice as far
- Vegetation renders 1.5x farther
- Smaller download size
🪛 Fixed
- The Maniac respawns properly after dying (a bug prevented respawn when the Maniac wasn't the host)
- The Exit can no longer be built before its unlock day
- Anchor teleport cooldown is now 5 minutes
- Long skill names no longer get cut off on the skill bar
- Removed duplicate popup hints
