1.2 Testing Branch First Impressions | Atomicrops
Just a few days ago Atomicrops dropped a new testing branch, teasing some of the content to appear in the December update. This video is about a first look at some (not all) of those features, and my opinions on them. All of the footage shown is on year ten, so the max difficulty of everything will be shown.
Four new bosses were added, each with their own set of quicks and perks. The existing bosses were also reworked, some more successful than others.
There is also the new addition of the Blood Moon event, which randomly appears during random nights in the run. There are three variants that I found, the purple, orange, and green moons. It's possible that there's more than just those three though. Each one of them present different ideas and play out differently.
As a whole I like the way this update is going. It really has a lot of new content to spice up runs, since before it wasn't uncommon for them to feel the same or stale.
And yeah I didn't upload for a bit, purely because I needed a break after the stress of the Only Peashooter series. I was working on some other videos, but got sidetracked by other projects. Then this testing branch came out, and I decided to focus on this instead. This video took me far longer than I wanted it too, especially with getting the footage. It took me five runs to finally face the Spider on year ten.
This video is a bit messy due my current time constraints. I just barely managed to get this done over the weekend. Regardless, I wanted to get this video out while the topic is still relevant.
