MAIN CHANGES
A new enemy breed: Phoenix Chicken! This is the counterpart of the “Chiller” chicken introduced in the previous update. Its attack is non-lethal, but you really don’t want to get hit. Due to its nature, it has -50% reduced spawn probability in frozen environments, and +50% in hot ones.
Also, customizable food drops! Instead of the regular burgers, you can now set enemies to drop Sweets, Fried Chicken, Fruits, Pizza, Popcorn, and possibly another one I forgot to mention .
There will be another update at the end of July. Following that, and barring any major issues, updates will slow down or even cease during August.
Bug/Idea medals will be awarded later in the day. Note that your medal cannot be awarded if your in-game callsign doesn’t match your forum name (send it to me in a private message).
