Hi guys, I've just released the *HUGE* version 0.3 patch. Full patch notes here.

Here's a rundown of some of the new features:

• All items now scale with Item Level, which is determined by the Hack Difficulty of the building the item dropped from. Any level of rarity can be found at any item level
  
• Difficulty Settings - You can now raise the difficulty of single or multiplayer games. This increases the hack levels of servers on the map, which makes the loot better and the enemies harder. Denoted by [+X] in the game browser
  
• Mod Support! All of the item stats can be modded. See here[superdupergc.com] for a guide.
  
• New Music from V-Axys - Two new tracks and improvements to several old ones
  
• Hack Radius Grace Period - You now have 5 seconds to get back into the hack radius if you leave
  
• EMP - A new weapon which stuns and damages enemies close to the player
  
• 1990 Mode - A fun option to make the game look low-rez
  
• CRT Mode - A fun option to make the game look like it’s on an old monitor
  
• Comparison Tooltips - Hold shift in the inventory menu to “grab” an item’s tooltip, so that you can compare it to another item
  
• Camera Shake - Explosions and being knocked back or damaged now cause the camera to shake. This can be turned down in the options menu
  
• Recoil - Weapons now have quite a kick to them (Thanks Hoodie!)
  
• Damage Direction Indicators - See where you’re being attacked from
  
• Intro Video from Alon Karmi

Because of all the changes, the price of the game has gone up to $6. Remember, the game will be $20 on release.
