Qiyb2 v1.3 is now live, with new added features and modifications!

• Created a custom cursor (white vector) for the game
  
• Made the cursor invisible when playing and visible when browsing the menus
  
• The probability system especially regarding the very rare cubes has been refined, in such a way that the spawn probabilities for many rare cubes have been increased
  
• Made many cubes possible to spawn without the associated perk, the perk now triples the chance of these cubes to spawn
  
• Added a new memory test cube
  
• The give up -button now also spawns when in any domain, in addition to a boss
  
• Lowered the skill purchase costs for time dilation (from 40k to 30k) and effect bank (from 60k to 40k)
  
• Buffed the probability cubes
  
• Changed some perk descriptions
  
• Fixed the shield icon problem, related to shield regeneration perk
  
• Removed an unintended effect of a certain rare cube
  

Qiyb2 v1.2 is now live, with new added features and modifications!

• Added a new secret boss, having something to do with 'mathematics' and the numbers '77777' and '42'.
  
• Addded three new cubes. Two of these can only spawn as loot when the secret boss is defeated, the third one is a very rare version of the red cube, which has a probability of about 0.1% to spawn instead of the normal red cube. As usual, this chance can be tripled with the Rare cubes -perk.
  
• Fixed a bug associated with one of the challenge domains, where the counters could get below zero, and changed a certain sound effect in that domain to a less ‘dramatic’ one. Also, changed the core mechanics in that domain a bit.
  
• Made the boss spawn and challenge domain events generally more unlikely
  
• The preferred volume meter values for sounds and soundtracks are now saved for future game sessions
  
• The active shield regeneration (unlockable perk) has now a visible cooldown timer and the shield now has a distinct value meter akin to that of hp. Also, changed the HUD to a more player friendly form.
  

Qiyb2 version 1.1 is now live! Here are most of the added features:

• Added a new challenge -mechanic, where as a random event a challenge domain can appear, where the player's skills are tested. As of now, there are three different challenge domains.
  
• Added a new cube that is an abnormal version of the normal mystery cube, with more powerful effects that can trigger. Also, check out its synergy with the negation cube if you dare...
  
• Made the first three basic bosses and their tiered versions harder.
  
• Abnormal versions of mystery, currency and probability cubes have a base chance of about 0.3% to spawn instead of the normal versions. The Rare cubes -perk triples this chance.
  
• Made certain random events possible without the associated perk. The aforementioned perk now increases this chance by tenfold instead.
  
• Lowered Effect bank skill purchase cost from 80 000 to 60 000.
