V0.28 You're going to die, the question is when
V0.28 Brings some great new additions to the game. A lot of which will make you die faster, and some that will make things easier.
First up, another new enemy. As you get closer and closer to 10,000 points you will have a greater chance of spawning the the level 2 upgraded bot. This will be fairly obvious that you've spawned it when you see it. It looks like large beefy metal death. And it glows. It sports more health and more damage. Further upgrades to difficulty will involve additional abilities that we're working on.
Next, AI improvements. While hiding behind cover is great and all, the AI gets tired of just standing there. They will now seek you out directly if they can't see you. So hiding behind cover will only give you a moment to gather yourself.
But, to help you deal with this increased difficulty is the addition of a new weapon. The silenced automatic sniper rifle. This weapon is silenced, which means a little less noise when bullets strike things. The AI will not as easily react to missed shots with this, and the gun does not make a noise on the spot, which means if you snipe something far away, an enemy nearby won't hear you. The gun has two modes, one is autofire mode, which is used when not aiming. Just hold the button down and shoot the enemies in the face over and over. This is a hitscan weapon, and will autofire with a held button.
The other fire mode is the right click sniper aim. This does significantly increased damage, is not automatic, and gives you a greater scope view than the regular rifle. It also has a fairly high critical chance. This does have some aim variance, so if you are moving or aiming at something far away expect your shots to not hit the center of the cursor.
Upgrade options haven't been set up for the sniper rifle yet, and in the next version we're going to expand those out with some additional things.
As well there were numerous behind the scenes bug fixes, most notably to the pickups which were sometimes not picking up.
