The Megabonk patch is now available! It brings back the leaderboard, which players have missed, and includes a lot of the balance adjustments everyone has been hoping for.
Megabonk has been a huge hit since its launch, selling over a million copies in the first two weeks. Players are constantly exploring the game to discover its powerful weapons, interesting characters, and collect valuable Tomes and Items.
Like any new game, this one had a few bugs that needed ironing out. After cheaters exploited a weakness and forced the removal of the leaderboard, players have been eager for its return, along with fixes for characters like Bush and Spaceman who weren’t working quite right.
Joe’s Dagger sees a major damage cap
This update brings back the leaderboard, and a major change is how Joe’s Dagger now works.
Joe’s Dagger’s damage increase is now limited to 200% per minute. While this won’t affect its performance in the early and mid-game, it means that later in the game, other options will become competitive. Previously, players could achieve a massive 20,000% damage increase in just 10 seconds, making it overwhelmingly powerful compared to everything else.
The developer explained that while this change could make the item very strong, a damage limit will prevent it from being overpowered. It will remain a useful item, but won’t be the only good choice as the game progresses – it’ll simply be one of the best.
Full patch notes
Final Swarm
Okay, so the way everyone was getting world records was *totally* broken. You basically had to stare at a super slow, glitchy lightshow with sunglasses on for five hours straight! It was awful, and honestly, nobody liked doing it. So, I decided to shake things up a bit. Now, the final wave is way harder – you can’t just rely on your special moves or black holes to get you through, not anymore… probably. It’s a real challenge now!
- New ghosts appear in the Final Swarm
Game
- Added Megachad’s Theme
- Optimized FPS when using Dexecutioner and Black Hole
Other
- Hopefully fixed an issue where players lost their save files if the game crashed
Bugs
- Spaceman’s passive now properly works and gives XP increase per level
- Fixed a bug where the Black Hole hitboxes were like 10x the size of the actual projectile, basically covering the entire map lol
- Fixed a bug where Spiky Shield didn’t stack correctly
- Added max duration to weapons, so that they don’t stop shooting once you hit the projectile limit. For example the sword projectile was being affected by duration, even though it’s only ever active for 1 seconds. But too much duration made it active for much longer, which means the cap was being filled with empty projectiles. Basically: Weapons like Dexecutioner, Axe, Sword, etc are working properly and shooting their projectiles now, even with high duration. This is a buff for pretty much all weapons.
Balancing
- Chaos Tome now gives 50% better rewards
- Rolly Bones enemies on Desert are now slower
- Black Hole default size increased by 20%
- Black Hole proc coefficient reduced (0.9 -> 0.7) to match similar weapons (sword, axe, aura, etc). Proc Coefficient is a multiplier used to proc stuff like Moldy Cheese or Spicy Meatball.
- Bush’s passive Marksman now has its cooldown reduced by 0.4s per 10 levels. Starts at 5s cooldown, and caps at 1s cooldown at level 100.
- Joe’s Dagger now has a max damage increase cap of 200 per minute. So if you have 10 daggers, that’s a max of 2000% damage per minute. This means it’s unchanged early and mid game, but very late game it’s not gonna be the only viable option anymore. Before this change, you could get 20 000% damage in 10 seconds, which nothing else in the game could contest lol
- XP Tome nerf: 9% -> 7% . The majority wanted this nerf, but some people really don’t like it. At least give it a try, and if everyone ends up hating it, I can just revert it back to 9% next week. Please go easy on me
Leaderboards
- Fixed some issues that allowed players to break the leaderboards for others
- Removed the All Leaderboards button until I actually implement more leaderboard stuff, like character-specific boards, etc
- Set up a list of known cheaters that are banned globally and will never show up on the leaderboards again once caught.
