Big patch with a lot of changes! New super hardmode added!
- Flashlight Non-effective on low video settings. ??? (Cannot reproduce this issue, I was unable to fix this...)
- Damage reflection armor regen potency should no longer be modified by damage taken.
- Upgrading the quality of a blueprint now functions a bit differently.
- 1. The stat change of an item after upgrading a blueprint is far more clear now.
- 2. The amount of item quality increased per upgrade has been increased 10x
- 3. The items and credits needed per upgrade have been increased 10x
- 4. A minor exploit in the cost of upgrading an item has been fixed.
- You now lose 25% of the current experience point requirement to level up on death. (Cannot De-level)
- Death counter now becomes invisible after one death on all classes but deprived.
- Removed the game settings tab on title screen options. (Those settings are saved on each character separately.)
- Advancements now give the proper amount of experience points especially at early levels.
- Power Node battle experience reward has been greatly reduced.
- Some Character sheet stats have been given more interesting cosmetic values.
- Default video mode has been modified to use a Retro filter. (I honestly feel like this should have been on always)
- Each Crafting material now has a limited stack size. (To balance out no death penalty)
- Jump height for all classes has been slightly reduced.
- Jump boots no longer provide as much height.
- Jump boots now provide a boost of speed forward.
- Combat Boots jump bonus has been greatly decreased.
New playable class (Super hard mode!)
If you want a genuine challenge then try playing the game in Deprived mode.
- Deprived Playable Class added to the game.
- Deprived class always has a visible death counter.
- Deprived class drops all loot on death in addition to the experience point penalty.
- Deprived class has a much higher/steeper Experience point leveling curve.
- Added Old Rusty pistol back into the game. It is now the starting weapon of the Deprived.
- Deprived class has generally worse stats than other classes except movement.
- Deprived class item quality degrades on death. (5%)
- Deprived class equipped items and current weapon quality degrades as you gain experience points from killing enemies.
- Deprived class items break at zero Quality.
- Deprived class all enemies move at double speed.
I live streamed for a bit testing out the latest patch here. (Sorry I keep forgetting to shut off my chromakey so green ends up looking black)

Revulsion update! Death penalty removed!
- Death penalty has been removed for all playable classes.
- Easy mode suggestion has been removed from the death message.
- Easy mode hat has been removed from the game. If you already use it nothing has changed. Fresh characters will never have an easy mode.
- Message text for bottom of the screen no longer blocks mouse clicks.
- The recall special action no longer auto activates on death.
- The recall special action cooldown has been reduced to 45 seconds (was 99)
- Pistol accuracy slightly increased.
- Pistol base damage slightly decreased.
- Fixed a bunch of grammatical errors but I suspect there are a lot more. This weekend I will get help to find as many errors as possible.
Here is a link to the live stream where I went through feedback and talked about the changes as I made them all. I will be doing more similar live streams in the future.

Revulsion and BZPlasma feedback - My thoughts
So after BZplasma had a chance to play Revulsion I got some very import feedback. This feedback has lead me to consider some large changes to the overall game. One of these things is the death penalty in regards to addressing a very concerning negative feedback loop.
I plan to have another patch for the game out addressing as many issues as possible by Friday! So stay tuned.

Revulsion update - My general thoughts lately.
I go over some feedback regarding Revulsion and talk for a bit about the topic of competitive multiplayer.
Revulsion Monday patch is live
- DarkSeed no longer swaps your position with the enemy target.
- If you have too many deaths a message now appears recommending the easy mode hat.
- Melee range has been increased.
- Stuck spots on soldiers overlook level 2 should now all be addressed.
- Reworded the use of the word level on the loading to stage. (Level is already used for your level!)
- Sudden difficulty spike in level 50 cap content has been reduced.
- Revised and improved the death loot logic. (Hopefully this time loot will never spawn in pits ever again.)
- Crossbow sound properly set to effects channel.
- Corrected an issue where ambush music was not in the music channel.
- Aim down sight now spins up the barrel on all weapons with barrel spin up.
The prospects of an in game level editor.
There are so many things just on the cusp right now its crazy! So I decided to talk about an in game multiplayer level editor and how I may use this in the future.
Progress update - New Open world breakdown.
In this video I do a breakdown of my progress and future plans as far as what kind of level design we will see in the next big content patch. I also talk a bit about progress on the cryptocurrency side of things as well.
Sales for the game have slumped considerably but EOS blockchain support is looking to be positive at the moment which should be great if that goes well. If that happens then I will have a means to really get people to be aware of the game and future projects.
Side Note : If you really enjoy the art of level design you might get a kick out of the design aspect I go into on the next update. A lot of level design stuff going on!
Two new videos that go into more detail about a lot of stuff.

I show off more progress on the future level design flow to a limited extent and talk about somethings that came up since the last video.
Response to workshop support and bunny hopping.

Just made a quick video to mention a couple things that I saw but never responded too. Don't worry this isn't another cryptocurrency video.
