GO MECHA BALL - ARCADE UPDATE 🎰 — Go Mecha Ball News

Good day ballers! Hope you are well. 🏐

It's been almost six months since we released Go Mecha Ball. We've been honoured by all the love and support from the community. And we're back with a new update, with a brand new mode that you can jump into right now!

ARCADE MODE NOW AVAILABLE 🎰

Unlock a new arcade mode challenge when you defeat a difficulty for the first time
Arcade mode is a score chasing mode where you can earn permanent upgrades for each character by earning bronze, silver and gold medals
Complete the highest difficulty to earn shiny new skins!

Here are the rest of the patch notes

Bosses

Bosses are more aggressive and attack more frequently
Less health replenished when defeating bosses
Glitched bosses gain more health, deal more damage and get new attacks with each difficulty level
Glitched bosses fire projectiles after certain attacks
Glitched bosses teleport around the stage

Combo System

Less forgiving combo system to improve gold coin economy balance and combo-based upgrade synergies
Combo timer no longer freezes entirely while in the air or using mobility features like transport tubes
Combo timer slows down while in the air, in boost mode and while abilities are active
Dealing damage with abilities now resets the combo timer

Shop

Shop always offers health packs
Shop contents are deterministic, so no more shop scumming

Performance

Much improved CPU efficiency
Reduced physics time step to free up CPU and GPU resources
More than halved memory usage in common situations
Many times faster startup loading and level loading performance
Optimized for Steam Deck: 60FPS without VSync
VSync no longer enabled by default
UI drawn as overlay rather than using a separate camera
More reliable occlusion and frustum culling
Improved GPU batching for reduced draw calls
Improved shadow quality

Settings Menu

Full input remapping for keyboard, mouse and controllers
Added headers to settings menu for greater readability
Added camera zoom options to set camera range
Toggle dynamic or static camera to help some players who experienced motion sickness from subtle camera movements
