******************************************************** NEXT PATCH **************************************************
standing wave field tech: superposition - if you have above 200 energy, 0.1x damage taken
updated some harpoon gun images
1st ionization energy 14->15 energy per heal
increase block pick up range by 30
plasma jet applies to plasma ball, and makes it bigger
spore gun shows path prediction when crouched
futures exchange 6->7 duplication per cancel
residual dipolar coupling 8->10 coupling per cancel
commodities exchange (8-12)->(10-14) power ups per cancel
grappling hook
accelerates faster
initial launch gains player velocity
makes aiming easier while moving
grapple has a slightly shorter cooldown after hitting mobs
bugs
fixed soft lock on training level - grenades
******************************************************** BUGS ********************************************************
graphical bug - player can become crouched while not touching the ground if they exit the ground while crouched
*********************************************************** TODO *****************************************************
!!!mob: spiker - moves around, but then stops and makes porcupine spikes for 2 seconds, then moves again.
maybe use hopper movement?
maybe use slasher laser code
make guns do different things if tap or hold fire
effects have some overlap with crouch
guns
wave: amplitude difference, single wave/double wave
nail gun: one large bullet, faster
laser: wide beam
super balls: ball velocity
foam: speed, size
harpoon: retract early?
like incendiary, but only active on tap and release
bigger explosions to balance?
tech - if you haven't fired a bullet in 4 seconds your next bullet is bigger?
effect?
size: nail gun,shotgun,super balls,drones,foam,harpoon
spores,mine: number of projectiles
wave?
explosion size: missiles,grenades
laser?
code?
ephemera? This doesn't sync to the bullet fired, it would have to be a additional projectiles
custom to each gun?
option for numerical HUD
dmg, energy, health, defense
hold jump to jump higher
field tech? or skin tech?
maybe require nitinol first?
increase interest percent, but make it focused on one type:
this lets the player make more strategic choices
research, coupling, ammo?
wormhole fieldtech: - gain 1% duplication for this level each time the wormhole eats a block
add a limit to the number of blocks that can be duplicated?
can this be exploited to not be fun?
how many blocks are on an average level?
tech - rip in spacetime - using wormhole leaves behind a zone of radiation, like neutron bomb ( grenadeNeutron )
make a new bullet type for rip() in spacetime so you can use it for several things
rips()
lasts 2-10 seconds?
damages mobs and player
slows things caught inside?
black circle with randomly changing radius and sparkles inside the black circle
white stroke (maybe with dotted lines like laser)
tech - benefit if you haven't killed any mobs on this level
have to clean up mobs that die on level spawn from falling blocks
tech - benefit in the first 20 seconds of the level
soft body boss?
search softBody(x, y, angle = 0, isAttached = true, len = 15, radius = 20, stiffness = 1, damping = 1) {
use ←↑→↓↖↗↘↙ combos to allow fields to have special actions
how to limit spam?
on cooldown
timer or once per level
energy cost
research cost
toggle modes
combos are listed in white text in field description, and console message when getting field
shows up on highlight, and mouse over in experiment mode
field ideas:
standing wave
push mobs away are any distance
pull mobs towards you
perfect diamagnetism
negative mass
molecular assembler - done
plasma torch
move around like you have recoil, move kinda fast so it's hard to control
like form recoil but fast
time dilation
metamaterial cloaking
pilot wave - done
wormhole
toggle bullets entering with wormholes
and player??
shoot out all the blocks that were sucked in this level (maybe cap at like 10?, cap with energy spent to fire)
are block sizes stored properly? because they shrink before they get eaten...
store vertices on the body object if one does already exists
after eating store the saved vertices
where to fire blocks from and in what direction?
target mobs?
fire from player (and draw a wormhole looking graphic)
grappling hook
new level idea: large map sized blocks that can't be destroyed that the player walks on as a part of the level
eventually the blocks fall
after fall level progresses to a phase 2 to clean up the blocks or leave them
should bosses be killed by falling blocks??
how to avoid the large block vibrating/dancing on tiny block issue
new level idea: escort mission
player has to stay near something that moves slowly through the level
maybe only a zone around the escort is safe
safe from?
lasers
slime
radiation
use line of site vision?
is it going to feel too slow?
where to put in level order?
random option instead of reactor?
normal level?
4th hard level?
already too many hard options
you could put in 2 hard levels in the level list
make the style look like substructure, that level looks great
use the motion sense lasers
tech: - remove the research costs of all tech
there's about 15 tech with a research cost
!!conformal - similar rules for small and big scales linked to holographic principle
!!holonomy - parallel transport of a vector leads to movement (applies to curved space)
when far away from your wormhole regenerate 1% of your max energy per second
when far away from your wormhole reduce damage taken
heal last hit damage after enter wormhole
!!quasar - plasma torch from both ends of wormhole
only after wormhole eats a block fire?
or just increase plasma length after eating block?
procedural animation
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlfh_rv6khY
tech: ice-VII - 1.5x duration for ice-IX
tech: - freezing grenades/explosions
tech: - when you get a bot, get a second bot
tech: - after killing a Boss
heal to full
gain 3x damage for the rest of the level
new level - rework testChamber
Boss (or mob) that quickly moves towards player, but then moves perpendicularly to player, like dodging
could respond to when player presses fire key or to when it takes damage
new snakeBoss type that eats mobs
each time it eats:
heal?
get shield if full?
make boss longer (if snake)
get shield
get orbitals
spawn spawns (little red square mobs)
when boss dies
spawn eaten mobs?
spawn generic mobs?
nothing
make snake new colors, width
Boss mob - takes a snapshot of the positions of all mobs, player, blocks, power ups. Then 3 seconds later it teleports everything back to those spots.
after snap shot is stored draw outline of body positions for a second to show the change
immune after snapshot? or immune after teleport?
Boss mob - records the position of mobs every few cycles
makes a ghost copy of the mob that is delayed by a few seconds
ghost can damage player, but doesn't have a matter.js object
gives mobs short snake tails, like snakeBoss
brings 1 mob back to life every few seconds
tech: atomic pile - lose 1 health if you are above the maximum energy
generate energy for each nearby mob?
do damage?
plasma torch tech?
make player mass an adjustable var in the skin
does this mess with jump height or air control?
increase mass and movement speed at the same time
increase jump differently because it scales extra with mass
m.defaultMass = 4.5
m.definePlayerMass()
possible player.mass bad interactions
grapple
tech - after a power up is duplicated
update text to random effect after choosing tech, or after each trigger, or on first display of tech
pick 1 effect at random
become immune to damage taken for 5 seconds
summon JUNK bots for 10 seconds
2x current energy
gain 1.01x damage permanently

4x fire rate for 12s
after picking up research gain ____
+10 choices for 12s
tech: Energy generation increases with you velocity
Newtons' 3rd law?
tech - getting caught in an explosion gives you _____
damage for 10 seconds?
heals
explosions have a chance to spawn spores
infinite feedback loop with spores that explode?
tech - getting a new gun also gives you 2 random tech for that gun
or a field?
can these guntech tech be converted into a player choice?
how to reduce the number of clicks and keypresses
auto fire mode
player shoots at whatever is nearby
should player have to look towards mobs?
increase ammo?
animate egg laying mobs
just draw a circle when it happens?
improve new player experience
training is too long to be a tutorial
before nail gun level offer player option to continue or switch to normal game
+40% foam size
+40% foam damage
-40% foam ammo gain
When foam is in an explosion it also explodes with size proportional to the size of the foam bubble
Requires foam, explosion source, not aerogel
new level similar to ash tray maze
!!not sure how this works with theme (most levels are locations that have industrial stuff)
this might work as another line of sight level?
could be fine without line of sight if rooms don't exist until they open up?
where to put in game sequence?
watch a run through https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nudSXUMBEV4
close off doors as player gets close
open up doors as player gets close
holes in the floor
slide large walls back to open up levels below
show a zone, then close it off, but eventually reveal it later
rise up pillars during combat
small maze rooms, 1-2 really huge rooms, long corridors, medium combat rooms
triggers for changes
clearing mobs in a zone
or time based if player is too slow
player gets close to a zone
make map elements shift around as player moves through the game
start with map elements filling everywhere and slow open up new zones
need a cool way to animate adding and removing map elements
maybe for the entire level redraw the map every 15 cycles?
simulation.draw.setPaths() //update map graphics
slide map around
small map squares that each add in sequentially
Cosmological natural selection: do something with black holes
spawn black hole mobs
after bosses die?
after any mob dies
at the start of new levels
make new black hole bullet mobs
write code the checks version and compares it to the version from patch notes
and link to main page if they don't match
(this is because there are several outdated versions hosted on sites with ads)
foam tech: increase size of foam and increase duration, but drop speed down, so they come to a stop and just hang
allow them to harm player?
this is probably just too annoying
Foam slow down mobs twice as much and slowly pulls them towards the ground
+30% foam damage
Half foam velocity
Foam is now effected by gravity
Requires a source of foam and not aerogel
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tungsten_hexafluoride
if needles touch map and mob at the same time pin mob to map
this might be better as a railgun tech, or a railgun rework
name rebar
make grappling hook of different shapes
shapes
longer
circular with spikes
indicate tech upgrades?
swarf, reel, tokamak
do this in draw or in verticies?
draw can have different colors
player got stuck inside block that wasn't pick up able
tech - killing a mob heals for the last damage you took
disable cloaking heal? maybe you don't need to disable, just don't heal twice
heal for 50%?
heal from mob damage or from kills?
on sucker mob death trigger radiation damage AoE and a graphic (Hawking radiation)
tech prismatic laser - cycles between different laser colors every 1-2 seconds
When you destroy an enemy’s shield it causes a large explosion. Requires not bubble fusion
sword slash for plasma torch (giving up on this for now, had trouble making graphics look good)
activates when mouse is close to player
gradual activation
sharp cut off
use length of torch as cut off length
make it look like hollow knight slash
what about upgrades to extruder,plasma ball
give them their own version of a slash?
make a tech that buffs the slash, but it disables extruder,plasma ball
more (all) bosses need to be made of parts
good examples: spiderBoss, dragonFlyBoss, beetleBoss
methods:
spawn adds in phases, like beetle and tether
constraints, like spider
be nice if each constrained part does something different
constrained mobs that regen after phases
flock, like cellBoss, blockBoss
Bosses that could be converted to more parts
"orbitalBoss", "shooterBoss", "bomberBoss", "launcherBoss", "laserTargetingBoss", "streamBoss", "pulsarBoss", "grenadierBoss", "blinkBoss", "laserBombingBoss", "blockBoss", "revolutionBoss", "slashBoss", "timeSkipBoss", "sneakBoss"
"sneakBoss" could get sneaker adds after each hide phase
"laserTargetingBoss" could have close range stabbers constrained, a few long range shooters, and a few laser shooters
defense power up - a short term defense boost, like the ones for damage.
Or maybe it would last until you take one hit.
Or last until you lost a total of 20 health.
use cross product rotation for other mobs?
snipers, shooters?
//gently rotate towards the player with a torque, use cross product to decided clockwise or counterclockwise
const laserStartVector = Vector.sub(this.position, this.vertices[this.swordVertex])
const playerVector = Vector.sub(this.position, m.pos)
const cross = Matter.Vector.cross(laserStartVector, playerVector)
this.torque = 0.00002 * this.inertia * (cross > 0 ? 1 : -1)
super-bot: fires super balls
tech: after a needle hits a mobs
the needle splits into 3 needles?
reset your fire CD?
fire again for zero ammo
2x damage for each consecutive mob hit?
mob non-combat behaviors, like Rain World
gathering
blocks
eating blocks to heal?
power ups
eating power ups and ejecting them on death
flocking
grouping near mobs
keeping distance from mobs
sharing velocity with other mobs: boids
wander
random walk with a bias towards the player
play
fight other mobs
consider increasing the base player horizontal movement
maybe only increase ground movement, air control seems fine
would this unbalance any maps?
tech stubs should be a tech unlocked by skins
nitinol, tungsten?
maybe give another benefit?
defense?
make a shared variable for skin defense, since you can only have one skin
make a lemming that walks until it hits a wall and then turns around robotically
body or mob?
can't be killed?
mobs attack mines
mines periodically set all mobs to have player location to be the mine
is this going to work with all mob vision types?
tech circular polarization - wave gun bullets move in a circle
Tech: relativity
Simulation speed scales with movement speed. When still, time moves at 0.4 speed, at full walking speed it’s 1. (So if you’re falling or something and you move faster the simulation will be faster than usual)
Also a damage and/or defense boost to make it worth using
wormhole tech - teleport away mobs with mass below 3 when they get too near the player
short CD, small energy cost, only mobs below a mass
tech: Bose Einstein condensate - freezes enemies in pilot wave, and drains some energy?
mob status effect - vulnerability
mobs take 4x damage for __ time
afterwards mobs go back to normal damage taken
graphical effect while they take extra damage
needs to come from a "rare"ish effect
merge with the decloaking damage effect
decloaking gives all mobs (nearby??) a 3x damage taken status?
this can be merged with the stun crit damage tech
also the increased damage every hit tech?
bad idea because the graphical effect will be too annoying
tech: sporangium that grow little trees
the trees have an area of effect damage for about 6-10 seconds
maybe something similar to radioactive drones, but maybe a few smaller shapes
hookBoss fires a hook that pulls player towards it
hook does a bit of damage
player targeted unless cloaking
also add effect to finalBoss
mob status effect - emit - mobs fire lasers for a few seconds
tech: phosphorescence - mobs emit after being hit with laser beams
Tech: "Solid rocket motor": Missiles would start at 300% speed and 200% missile damage upon explosion, but the speed and damage would decrease to 40% speed and damage as time goes on
tech: every time shotgun fires it's a different shotgun mode: nails, ice, needles, worms, fleas, rivets, ... but you get more ammo
for tech power ups no tech options are displayed until you research once
or display only JUNK until you research once
increase the number of options after each research
When receiving damage, in addition to becoming invulnerable to attacks, also become intangible for the set period of time
tech increase max energy and energy to 5000, but you can no longer regen energy through any process
it would be nice if there was incentive to go slow when choosing tech so n-gon is more relaxing
add some css based visual effects for opening up a tech,gun,field
make a new coupling effect for perfect diamagnetism
make a faster smaller version of cell boss that also has map collisions
laserMines need a copy of laser-bot method
this is a very rare bug, so not a priority
JUNK tech description that changes similar to cards in inscription
that changes based on mouse position
can you tell if mouse is over card?
PWA?

or toggle other power ups
health/ammo
complete blowSuckBoss... or don't
tech: laser reflections increase damage
JUNK tech different effects based on night or day
use system time
Boss that shoots out a ring of bullets, then after a few seconds it gravitates the bullets back
tech give laser mines more lasers (3->4? 5?)
rewindBoss: after hitting 1/5 damage thresholds the boss rewinds back in time to where it was a few seconds ago
track it's data like player history
make orbitals increase orbital rotation speed after Orbital boss takes damage
worms can target player, buff their damage
can't target player in first few seconds?
plasma field tech - similar to regression, but for plasma ticks
greatly increase walking speed
not mid air control?
for time dilation field
make jumping normal
junk tech: charged shot
immediately fire all of your ammo
after taking damage explode while invulnerable
scale explosion radius with damage
tech: get sent to a new tab that closes in 3 minutes
in the new tab you play reactor
if you die in reactor you die in game, if you win you get 2-3 tech in the original game?
give player equipment like many-worlds
count guns, field, tech and give random stuff on new tab
i-frame instead of tab?
tech: missiles explode a 2nd time after 1/2 a second (with a slightly different position determined by original velocity)
seed isn't working right from shared URL
mob mechanics
bullets hit player and stay attached for 4-5 seconds, slowing player
hopperBullets?
black hole sucker effect on tail
vines
attached to map and grows, a series of spheres connected by vines
if node dies it's removed from tree
vine do
keeps track of connection tree
nested object with nesting to show connection
spawns new nodes
draws connections as quad lines
standing wave no longer pushes mobs away, but it can do damage to mobs caught in area effect
Standing wave harmonics no longer deflects, but instead discharges excess energy as lightning toward nearby enemies
negative mass field does damage to mobs inside field
combine with standing wave effect? pilot wave?
store value of last hit health lost
tech: killing the mob that caused the last hit spawns a heal power up equal to 1/2 of last hit
time limit for effect?
need to also store who hit player
add small SVG pics to in-game console
when?
one for each field?
use stuff on physics notes:
simulation.inGameConsole(`
<svg class="SVG-title" width="160" height="120">
<g fill="transparent" stroke="#333" stroke-width="1" transform="translate(78,75)" stroke-linecap="round">

`);
path-finding
build a path-finding map on level load
how to convert vertices into block grid?
check points for map collisions and build grid
is there a path-finding algorithm for vertices, instead of block grid
use for:
mobs,
drones?
bots that can go far from player and return
make plasma ball power up and block pick up still work when you have no no energy
make a unique CD var for plasma ball?
tech: entropic gravity - gain defense for each research
requires wormhole or pilot wave or negative mass field?
mitosis: after needle,bullets or rivets hit a surface split off into two smaller less damaging versions that have their velocity reset -firerate
after killing a mob go invulnerable for 1 second
critical hit with laser, harpoon, nails, needle, rivet
spawn 2 bots after exiting 1 level
or spawn 3 after 2 levels?
(randomize 2-5 bots)
replace all bot tech with this?
cloaking field
for 6 seconds after de-cloaking tell all active mobs that the player is in the wrong position?
how to code?
just delay setting the m.isCloak for a couple seconds
and also set all active bots to remember player in the de-cloaked stop
scrap bots can't move?
only works for nail, foam, laser
might be tricky code?
make a new bot type called scrap bot?
JUNK tech: Pacifism
You cannot attack mobs, mobs cannot attack you
over write the mob.damage and player.damage methods
mob mechanic: beacon
periodically add locations to an array
teleport back to a location in the array
at random
if velocity not facing player?
super balls do more damage after bouncing?
how to check for bounce?
maybe just increases damage after hitting a mob
super short range foam that acts like flame thrower
high fire rate
short life spawn
start large?
extra ammo?
or only 1/2 of ammo is used?
laser tech where bots move around and follow you while firing lasers in the direction you are looking
they fire when you fire?
they aim at player history aim location, with 1s delay
bots position spread out perpendicular to the direction you are looking
can they get stuck?
maybe absolution position, no collide
do they need to be physics objects then?
make a special bot type for this
beam is similar to diffuse beam
double research
map ban option in settings
dropdown list with checkboxes by each map
bullets that can target the player
occurs if no mobs targets around
worms? drones? missiles? spores?
all of the above?
Currently, the mob just deals higher damage on impact, which is annoying although not hard to compete with nor unique
By "redesign" I mean replacing instances of the regular mob, since the same code is used for the tiny red projectiles (I think) just add a new mob and remove the old one from the rotation
The new mob should be as such, a "real" exploding mob:
Deals regular damage on impact, but breaks apart on touch into several red dots (like the ones thrown out by the going through walls boss) and a chance for also throwing a bomb or two (increases with difficulty)
If the mob is close to the player or heading into the player fast it will shatter as well (and the projectiles will inherit its speed)
By a formula such as
ShouldShatter(distToPlayer, speed) = distToPlayer * speed > threshold
Optionally (and a part I can do as I'm good at it and it doesn't revolve around a lot of functional code which you don't like other people doing):
Color changing based on the mob explosion status
Regular state: red
About to explode: animation to dark red
Exploding: several shockwaves from the explosion points and tiny trails given to the shrapnel for a second or two until they deaccelerate
pause time like invariant for other things...
throwing blocks
charging railgun
charging anything?
guntech fire a bullet that fires nail fragments after 1s in the same direction as the original bullet
like overwatch roadhog
bring back:
the old phase decoherence field
make cloak only active on input.field down
could be a tech
would need some other buff
how to make it good enough
combine with not killing tech?
stun mobs that touch you while phased
firing doesn't exit you from cloak
but it does drain some energy
tech pilot wave: Bose Einstein condensate - freeze mobs in superposition with pilot wave
tech: plasma drip
plasma ball
graphics should look more like a real plasma ball
gently scale damage with circleRadius
balance corona discharge
delay on returning to player is annoying
scale float effect with ball size
tech upgrades
greatly improve floating effects while holding
black hole: gives the plasma ball gravity
stun on expansion
plasma orb increases in size and power as it eats enemies
while attached?
flashlight effect
make level.do() graphic that only shows direction player is facing
pattern it after cloaking field, or timeSkipBoss
will it work with cloaking field at the same time
double jump?
tech: coyote time
you can still jump for 2 seconds after falling off a ledge
make it a JUNK tech? so you can keep the name
some other benefit
reduce your gravity also?
increase jump?
tech smoke grenades - mobs inside a cloud can't see player
draw on the region so it's hard for player to see as well
you'd have to make something similar to MACHO that exists after an explosion goes off
maybe just keep it simple:
stun mobs for a long time, and draw a 99& alpha grey circle for the same time
don't worry about mobs seeing you inside the circle, the circle is kinda small so it doesn't matter
tech mines: mines fire _____ instead of nails
needles
super balls?
foam?
tech: frozen mobs die at 10% life
tech: harpoons stick into enemies
detonate after a short delay
attaches mob to wall if possible
firing while harpoon is stuck into an enemy rips it out of them, inflicting damage and stun and pulling them towards you
enemies stuck with foam receive upward force over time
only form aerogel tech?
Tech: superglue
Requires: foam + another gun or plasma torch or molecular assembler
Foam bubbles decay 50% slower
Enemies stuck with foam cannot move
Foam does 0 damage
Enemies stuck with foam take 25% more damage
should foam bots gets this also or is that too strong
const ctx = canvas.getContext('2d', {‘willReadFrequently': true});
//deal with game crashes?
canvas.addEventListener("contextlost", onContextLost);
canvas.addEventListener("contextrestored", redraw);
ctx.reset();
a mine tech that makes mines you can stand on
works similar to the field block throwing system
but you don't need to find a block to throw
blocks explode after mobs touch them
or 3 seconds after you touch them
benefits from all block tech
go non-collide with mobs when immune to damage?
mobs that are invulnerable from the front
vertical reversed version of reservoir level, start at top and press buttons to lower slime
mechanic: push a very large block into slime in order to stand on it and avoid slime
add anticipation to more mob attacks
stabber
striker
can mob bullets damage other mob?
maybe if they switch collisions and classType === "body" or obj.classType === "bullet"
figure out how to get friction effects on map/body to apply to player
also horizontal moving platform?
growBoss and cellBoss are too similar
variant of Occam's razor - remove 50% of your tech for each removed get:
2 bots?
50 energy max
tech immune to harm after mob kill
require no other mob kill tech?
cloaking field tech?
final boss invulnerability
until mobs are cleared?
in between phases
for all of one phase
JUNK tech - do something fun to the mob display health method
new platform element, spring
toggle to on when player touches platform
platform extends in any direction
boss that gives nearby mobs invulnerability
invulnerability needs to toggle off and on
boss is only mildly aggressive
repulsed by player up to a point
attracted to mobs
training
save training level progress as local variable
reset progress to zero if you clear all training levels
maybe only save progress if you made if past the trainingHeal level
make the training button more obvious if the account has only played 1-2 times
larger?
position?
animated text?
uses the lore voice/text code?
replace all mob clear triggers with button triggers?
tutorial rooms:
look around with your mouse?
easier deflecting level, with 1-2 attacking mobs
gun rooms: (different mobs type in each room)
different mobs in each room
how to introduce mob shields?
"hopper" "slasher" "shooter "grenadier" "striker" "laser" "stabber" "springer" "pulsar" "launcher" "launcherOne" "exploder" "sneaker" "sucker" "sniper" "spinner" "grower" "beamer" "focuser" "spawner" "ghoster"
spores - use 1 ammo to take out several mobs at once, you have to block with your shield until the mobs die
drones - use mouse to bring drones around a couple corners
foam - slow boss mob, and run away
laser - reflect off walls to hit mobs
field rooms:
standing wave - bullets come from every direction
perfect diamagnetism - drop field to rapid stream of bullets and fire gun at them
negative mass - fly over a bunch of ground based mobs , hoppers
molecular assembler - guide drones around the corner
plasma torch - nothing fancy, just kill mobs
time dilation - get past some mobs
cloaking - sneak past mobs to collect some heals
pilot wave - toss blocks at mobs
worm hole - teleport past lasers
puzzle/platforming rooms:
use the double constrained platforms
stealth room
probably should make 2+
combat rooms:
boss gauntlet, spawn with nothing but a few power ups and fight 10 bosses
use no gun, just bots to kil stuff
balance time dilation with bose einstein (you can freeze everything and take no damage)
code is still there, need to balance
balance with energy drain?
make a line of constrained mobs move like a snake
apply forces with directions determined by time and position on the snake
tech: basic research - heal power ups spawn as research power ups instead, and using research heals you (needs to be pretty low, like 3% health)
tech: maintenance - heals no longer spawn, but using research heals you 100%
foam tech - make it move slower, last much longer, and push away other foam bullets
not sure about bouncing off walls, but that might be fun too
tech extend fracture analysis to give bonus damage to frozen also, but reduce the 400%->300%?
pulsar mobs retarget too easily
also they drift around too much
convert blocked mobs into bullets
only for the very small bullets that move fast after being blocked
delete bulletmob and spawn a nail-like bullet with the same properties as the bulletmob
electric motors: increases movement speed and jump height, but jumping and moving costs energy
overwrite the key event listeners?
JUNK tech?
mob that fires bullets in 4,5,6,7 different directions at once, no aiming
grow a bit before it fires to indicate state
quasarBoss: inverted pulsar boss that hits everything except where its aiming
intro map: diegeticly draw a mouse with field highlighted
also indicate space?
dynamically adjust drawing after picking up a gun
give history boss legs?
field tech - disable blocking, but does high damage to mobs inside field
and maybe slows mobs it damages
mob/boss that fires a laser at player, but give player time to avoid
laser isn't always on
they target where player was 1 second ago
they turn to face player?
Plasma Burner: upgrade for plasma torch, basically just a jet engine. does high damage, but short range, mostly for player movement.
maybe reduce gravity to really low then apply a vector away from mouse direction
auto-gon - auto battler with n-gon mob AI and tech
you build a group of mobs and bosses from n-gon
they fight other mobs and bosses
similar research and tech system to n-gon
some mobs can fire player weapons
Pilot wave tech
Energy use is increased, but you can now shape blocks using pressure
Grouping blocks will merge them into a massive ball
Size, density is determined by total mass
aoe effect pushes mobs away, then rapidly pulls them in
for mines?
mob: spawning seekers on death
drones can combine with other drones to get bigger?
drones that grab powers ups can grab more then one and get even bigger each time
it would be helpful if there was a mechanism to recover mobs that fly off the map
add a ceiling system and a left/right walls system similar to the floor checks but only for mobs
make non moving bosses not move after getting hit
shooter, shielding,
scrolling console history in pause menu?
pause should at least show the last in game console message
in testing mode console log the body you click on
tech: Standing Wave: Shockwave. Use FIELD button to shrink your shield and charge up, release to unleash a Shockwave.
tech: quantized shields - harmonic standing wave field can only lose 33 energy per hit
draw 1,2,3 levels of the field based on energy?
the blocked value only scales up to 2x or 4x (33 energy) blocked
doesn't stack with spherical tech
make a tech that improves all charge guns
for: pulse, foam, railgun
effect:
faster charge rate?
fire speed already does that...
harm reduction while charging
less ammo/energy used while charging?
tech plasma : plasma length increases then decreases as you hold down the field button (like stabbing with a spear)
grows to 1.5 longer after 0.3 seconds, then returns to normal length over 1 second, until field is pressed again
extra energy is drained when field is longer
energy conservation 6% damage recovered as energy
there is space for a negative effect in the text...
tech: use the ability for power ups to have custom code
(note: this code is half way done, it just needs to be completed)
attracted to player
attracted to other power ups
explode if they touch?
apply the new gun.do functions to other guns
railgun
crouching missile?
works similar to foam
performance issues?
look into improving mouse lag with pointer lock?
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Pointer_Lock_API
https://www.vsynctester.com/game.html
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26530272
tech: time dilation - when you exit time dilation rewind to the state you entered
position, velocity, and health
no energy cost
be able to open up custom mode in the normal game
might need to be rebuilt from scratch
while in through testing mode?
have a way to make limited changes as allowed by tech you pick up in game
disable the in custom setting flag
make different move methods
tech crouch charge jump
tech double jump
tech when mobs are at full health you do 40% to them

this is like a dodge roll
tech for standing wave?, cloaking?
tech pilot wave: mini black hole - pull mobs and blocks in with more force
also from farther away
also do damage?
tech pilot wave: antigravity - blocks have no gravity for a few seconds after exiting the field
maybe they bounce too?
maybe they explode?
new power up - increase damage and fire speed, for 15 seconds
named boost?
enabled by a tech
power up color: ?
how to indicate effect duration
or just give the effect after picking up a reroll
tech- do 50% more damage in close, but 50% less at a distance
code it like techisFarAwayDmg
have these tech disable each other
new status effect: weakness, mobs do 75% les damage
graphic indication?
new status effect: fear - push mob away from player for a time
new status effect - apply status effect to mobs that makes blocks attracted to them
only lasts a few cycles
or zero cycles and it doesn't need to be a status
have some mobs spawn in later in the level (in hard and why modes)
where
