Another week, another update! This time our primary focus was on the competitive aspect of the game!

Some of you may have noticed that we have an achievement called "Hole In One!" which requires you to get the combo counter to x50, and you didn't know where the combo counter is. The reason for this was that we had to disable it as we were reworking how the combo system works.

The new combo increases for each kill the player makes. Each enemy contributes a certain amount of points to the combo. When enough points are accumulated the combo counter increases by 1. Each combo level increases the number of points the player gets for all the actions he does in the game.

There are 100 levels of the combo multiplier and at max rank, the score increase is 50%.

The combo isn't lost until you take damage, and at that point, we reduce it by 25%. So it's best to keep away from that damage if you want to build up that combo meter!

To complement the combo system we also reworked how scores are awarded for curses. Each curse increases the total score by 10%, but we decided to add a higher score bonus when you have more curses. For example when you have 5 curses active the total score boost is 75% while with 6 curses the total score boost rises to 100%.

Well, of course, these aren't all the changes. Check out all the other cool features:
