Version 1.0

Gameplay:

Added player types and pellet types
  • Player Types
    • Default
      • The Default type of player, has a relatively even balance of pellet canon, laser, and bombs. 
    • Gunner
      • Shoots two extra pellets per burst. Pellets are larger, but laser is smaller and has less bombs
    • Laser-er
      • Shoots two less pellets per burst and the pellets are smaller. Can max out at 1 bomb, and moves slightly slower. The laser is much much larger. A sort of glass canon playstyle.
    • Bomber
      • Shoots two less pellets per burst, and has a smaller laser. Starts with 6 bombs. A much more strategic playstyle. Knowing when and where to place bombs to stay alive
    • Speeder
      • Shoots one more bullet per burst, has slightly larger laser and the casted light is much smaller. The speeder also moves about twice as fast, but its light fades about 6 times faster. You have to focus on getting points frequently or you won't last long. 
  • Bullet Types
    • Piercing
      • The default bullet type. Decent damage and goes through multiple enemies
    • Heavy
      • exploding pellets which start slow but accelerate rapidly. The faster they are traveling the more damage. They explode when hitting an enemy, and can damage eaters
    • Scatter
      • Shoots many small pellets in a spread pattern. They slow
    • Target-Seeking
      • Less damage, but seeks out targets. Helpful for finding enemies outside your light
  • A bunch of balance changes
  • Updated shop and added loadout page
