The Killsquad 1.0 update is here! On this last step on our journey through the Early Access, we've focused on polish and a few on demand mechanics:
"Recovery" has been added to the game by popular demand, "Recovery" is a new mechanic where after being knocked back you can get up into the fight again faster, so you can avoid those nasty moments of knockback after knockback, a short opportunity to get back up by reacting at the right moment and to keep the frenzy of the battle!
The economy of the game has been tweaked, balancing a bit the importance of the shop leaning more towards contract rewards with the new "ambush chest" where you can earn rare loot and balancing the rewards for some contracts to smooth the progression through all difficulties!
Single player balance! All contracts from recruit, Veteran and Plague contracts received a balance on time and difficulties, now the progression curve should be smoother. But don't worry, there is still some more harsh contracts for those seeking greater challenges!
WASTELAND 7A received its last flavor asset pack, the laboratory theme is added to the world, giving its unique identity to the world as a post nuclear planet!
And many more such as polishing, more balance and bug fixing, a lot of bug fixing!

When the character is knocked back has a chance to get back up quickly:
Keep in mind that the window of opportunity is small (as shown with a different color in the next image), less than a second, so you will need to time it well and get skilled to be able to perform the Recovery.
