It's mostly constituted of balance changes to make make the game more even for the player and to address some problems.

Buffed Healer HP by 10%
Buffed Healer recover by 10%
Buffed enemy's regular plasma projectile damage by 16%
Tweaked final boss Offensive phase to make it more fair
Increased signficantly points for destroying final boss crystals (offensive and defensive)
Nerfed final boss HP by 16%
Buffed player laser dps from 465 to 480
Slightly more Health packs will appear
Additions
Splash screen overhaul !
Bug fixes
Fixed and optimized comet VFX (less lag)
Fixed a bug where all Security devices (laser) would go off-screen (oops !)
Chromatic is turning free soon !
Yes, you read it right !
First of all, I want to thank every player who purchased the game to support me. I really appreciate it.
However, as you might know, I developed this game to gather personal experience and notoriety rather than to gain money and I planned since the beginning to switch to this model in 2018.
I gave away the game at multiple occasions to make the payout barrier non existing, even if I'm asking a very low price for Chromatic, as many people told me.
Now, in order to make things clear, this price change will be effective on January 23rd with according Valve authorization.
What if you bought the game ? Well, I cannot refund personally every single purchaser as I cannot differentiate the ones that actually paid from the one that got it free, but I have something special for you next up, in the new game I'm currently developing (I can't say more, but it will be free). I appreciate your involvement and I consider everything I got as a donation and an encouragement for me to continue <3

Thanks again for your support and understanding and see you soon !
