Baloon chick pool

[gabytzu]

based on this!!

Early Access version 63.2

[CIU 2021-01-03 13.58.01 9092.786] instead it’s a bug it should be falling in the direction of the spacecraft! look at this it doesn’t make sense

I’m not convinced that this chicks “work” fine so I propouse a poll about the fallin directions

How the baloon chick should fall

• Original state the present one
• Spacecraft direction

Wait. Why can I choose both options?

[anagamermasry]

YES IDK WHY

[SA-GoldenBoss128]

Well, that’s gonna be an exploit.

Also why you write in caps?

that reason of the message that i have sent to you

Although I do acknowledge the poll results, I’ve explained why it works better this way:

@InterAction_studios

Two reasons:

1. I thought it would make a more unique and interesting mechanic in non-upright waves, because this way they can exit the screen without passing by you. So you would need to strategically delay shooting them until they were far enough inside the screen to give you enough time to kill them completely without them disappearing again. For example, in a horizontal wave, if you shoot a balloon chicken immediately after it enters from the bottom edge of the screen, it will drop back down and you would lose the points.
2. Once you pop all the balloons, it looks a bit weird if its starts spinning to the left or right (or even upwards). The balloons are meant to keep it upright always, so it makes sense that it falls vertically downwards without them.

There’s also a 3rd reason: in waves where the direction of travel constantly changes, the balloon chickens would still keep moving in the old direction until they were damaged (this is an implementation limitation).

All in all, this change is too problematic.
