EDIT: Update 7.0.4 is live, which just fixes a softlock related to perks / perk slots for new players.Genome Guardian is finally Steam Deck verified! Only reason it shows as just "Playable" is because some text in Checklist / Records / Credits is kinda small.⚖ BALANCE(Mutation) microbes are completely insane: less erratic movement in Shmup mode.🔄 CHANGESVarious tweaks to the Steam Deck experience.Major performance increases on Steam Deck.Minor performance increases on PC.(early game only) game will make sure you've used all your perk slots before starting a run.There's now a warning before ad

🔒 UNLOCK CONDITION CHANGES Everything below that's become harder to unlock is stuff new players often struggle with and genuinely shouldn't have access to until later:(turret) Diesel: overheat 300 → 500 times. This turret becomes a lot easier to use after you have more perks. (perk) Magnet: now only triggers at Depth 1+. It has VERY niche use but I still want it to unlock early on since it works so well with the Maw turret. (perk) Hourglass: now only triggers at Depth 3+. New players will use it without knowing how to properly utilize this (+50% Damage with -50% Firerate is -25% DPS, after al

(Turret) Scorch: Firerate scales with Heat up to +200% → +300%. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 (Turret) Helios: removed "-1 Health each time you reach full Charge". (Turret) Diesel: while below 50% Fuel, Damage +70% → +100%. (Turret) Deadeye: Speed +100% → +200%. (Perk) Bulb: -40% → -50% Heat Increase from firing while at or below 50% Heat & +400% → +500% Heat Increase from firing otherwise.

So much has been added & fixed since release thanks to your feedback & discussions in the Discord - Lots of QoL and turrets/perks are because players requested them. It's still crazy to me how many players enjoy it (and how many have 100%'d it), I really love you guys. I pushed myself harder than I ever have to release this game (my first game and my first time ever using Unity or doing gamedev in any capacity) and it's wild that this has become my career now. Most of you don't know that Genome Guardian actually started as a group project for a university class - I got so into it that I basica

Not a super eventful patch, but had to fix Heatwave Repeater as soon as I found out about it! 🔨 FIXES (weapon) ːadnaːːadnaːːgdnaːːgdnaː Heatwave Repeater: It wasn't dealing Damage, Knockback or Burn - fixed. (I broke it while fixing hitboxes for projectiles in the last update) (endless mutation) Health Max -1 after each wave It was resetting Health Max back to full upon adding a new mutation or adding/swapping turret mods. Some intro popups were re-worded & made more readable. Oh, and of course thanks to everyone who tried Cell Command's demo during Next Fest! (the demo is still available btw

CELL COMMAND DEMO IS LIVE!check it out (trailer is done too) taking a few weeks off from dev finally (been busy making Cell Command and I haven't had a day off since November 20 2024), but was able to get some Genome Guardian update stuff done. Still have other stuff planned. ːguardianturretː TURRET TRIAL MODIFIERS Bearclaw: Range +50% → +100% Viper: Health Max -50% → Power-up Duration +100% 🔄 CHANGES Each Abyss health checkpoint now clears all currently-active projectiles. During the intro, it's now impossible to be confused by the need to open a slot first before adding a DNA letter to it.

I do still have update plans for Genome Guardian. Just been 100% focused on Cell Command for a while now - grinding to have a playable public demo ready for 24 Feb Steam Next Fest, which I guess I haven't publicly stated until now. I am going to be meeting that demo deadline and things are shaping up so well. But yeah, do still have GG stuff in the works. Just, y'know, hope everyone's been patient - I literally don't take days off. I will for a bit when Cell Command demo is live but a GG update will come shortly after. Can show some more stuff though for CC: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44933391/3de3f4a
