[Game Update] - 329526

Hey folks, thanks for the feedback on Wheeler so far.

We were experimenting with a couple different changes for Wheeler, and we decided the drawback of the inventory was important, and that her perks needed to be strong enough to compensate. We've made the following changes:

  • Wheeler's life is set to 100
  • Wheeler has 12 inventory slots
  • Wheeler's dodge has been polished up, and should be easier to use, especially while running.
  • Wheeler has a 5% speed boost
  • Every empty inventory slot gives an extra 1% speed boost
  • Trusty Shooter tiers have been tuned
  • No changes to the NaviGadget
  • Her graphics have been polished

Cheers.

Much much better, but I still think having a speed boost at all is too much. Extra movement speed is the most broken thing in the series, and projectiles are the second most broken. Wheeler still has both, but thankfully to a lesser extent. Let's hope the new Pew-Matic Horn is just about on par with Boomerangs now!

Perfectly balanced, as all things should be. Nice job!

Anyone got the new values of the shooter?

It appears that it's only light or heavy damage now of 34 and 45, and items that were medium damage are now heavy damage, as meat and twigs do 45 along with rocks and stuff

Still not a fan of the passive movement speed boost, but tuning her health down to 100 is a great change!

So, assuming her airhorn got a hefty nerf, then these changes are overall pretty dang good!

Have to admit, I forgot for a while that Wheeler even had an HP buff. She originally had 100, so it's a nice return to form.

I personally wish they had light, medium and heavy dmg... like maybe 20-3 low dmg or something.. but she is in a much better place now :)

I think the speed boost is fine right now. The max you can have, meaning absolutely nothing in your inventory, is +17%. I also like the new character art much more, but, forgive me for making the tiniest of nitpicks here, I think she'd look perfect with her mouth moved up by 3 or 4 pixels.

Compare:

her dodge feels superorganic now... great job

edit... they fixed the "hair" animation issues too and her hair from the back looks much more uniform with the rest of the other sprites..
