Today we’re bringing an update containing new tools, blocks, a character, polish, QoL and a snazzy scene transition!

Tools

We’ve added a bunch of new tools for you to try out, and boy you’re in for a treat! The primary focus for these new tools have been to expand your options for getting a higher multiplier to beat your highscore.

You can also look forward to some new tools for changing how you play, be it doubling the damage of your balls or going for a high amount of bounces in a round.

The Berry Bush

A new recruit has also arrived for your team: the berry bush!

The berry bush never breaks but instead grows juicy berries for you to pick up in the next round yielding a good chunk of points.

The Bowler

Not only are you getting more tools and blocks to play with, but you get to play with a new character! Presenting: The Bowler!

The bowler specializes in having long rounds with balls bouncing all over the place. This is complemented by starting out with not one but TWO berry bushes for your balls to bounce off of.

Polish & Quality of Life

This content update also includes a bunch of polish and quality of life additions. Some of the highlights are:

• A lovely transition when moving between scenes. It even showcases your happy team dancing joyfully!
• When your team spawns at the start of a season they’re now restricted to the center of the playing field. This means you no longer have to deal with unlucky placement of your team resulting in a lost game.
• Unsure about which items or blocks you can find during a run? Head over to the collection log found in the main menu which details all content currently in the game!
• The standard blocks now spawn lower tier versions of themselves, making sure you don't run out of blocks to hit in early rounds.  
• … and much more
