G.hdRemaster persisted in localStorage (meatslicer_hd_remaster), toggled
from the title screen via H key or the bottom-left tag; activation reloads
so the asset tier and canvas resolution swap at boot. draw() applies a
uniform hdScale() transform, the room-layer cache renders at render scale,
and image smoothing follows the tier.
- Every special weapon gets an explicit 'refill' (units per ammo pickup,
tuned so one pickup funds ~10 kills) replacing the ammoRefillFraction
log2 heuristic and ammoWeight overrides
- Bile Blunderbuss + The Cauterizer join Red Right Hand as time-denominated
stream weapons ('drain' per second) instead of per-shot cost
- Sawblades ricochet through enemies (bounce fix), traps catch 3 victims,
lobbed projectiles arc overhead and always trigger at the target point
(Flesh Masher / Trap Queen / Swarm Jar payloads now actually deploy)
- Boss rooms stock one ammo on entry and drop one guaranteed on death
- Cauterizer burn trimmed (2.2s x2 -> 1.5s x0.8), bile acid pools trimmed
(3.5s x1.5 -> 2.5s x0.8), Marrow Draught now covers stream drain
- New tools/ammo_sim.js calibrates every weapon into the 8-13 kills/refill
band (all 15 pass); smoke test guards the ammo structure
- v0.3.0, cache bump v=44
- AMMO_REFILL_SCALE 0.75 on ammoRefillFraction (smaller refills)
- AMMO_DROP_SCALE 0.75 on all three ammo spawn sites (room clear, elite,
normal kill); help/gameplay drop-rate text updated; cache v=41
Legendaries (cap 1, boss-only): Butcher's Oath, Second Skin, Twin Sidearm,
Crimson Metronome, Abattoir Engine, Gore Crown, Thousand Teeth, Hollow Father,
The Last Cut, Meat Grinder. Once-per-floor flags reset in nextFloor.
Balance fixes: Ghoul Heart now +4 HP (2 full hearts); Brass Magazine ammo
efficiency uses the same diminishing additive formula as Scrap Feed.
- Bigger gore-red Minis (r10->14, sprite 32->48) with regenerated art
- Wider, walkable doorways: clear passage for open, teeth only when locked
- 500ms spawn telegraph so wave spawns no longer blindside the player
- Item stickiness ramps 10%/owned item (cap 50%) instead of flat 50%
- Title-screen Pressure Dial (-5..+5) tunes rise/relief; score x live pressure
- Vitals HUD: two-row hearts, half-container outlines, half-heart shield pips
- Readable 8-page field manual (bigger panel + fonts, implants split)
- HUD opacity slider in pause menu (boss bar + toasts stay opaque)
- Scrap Feed now has diminishing returns like Thick Hide
- Docs, cache-bust v37, and smoke coverage for all of the above
A [?] HELP button (or H key) on the pause screen opens a seven-page
technical manual: controls, run loop, arsenal, mutations, implants,
bestiary and pressure/defense math. List pages render live from the
WEAPONS/ITEMS/PERKS/ENEMY_TYPES/BOSS_DEFS tables so values never drift.
Also unifies the sfxbank fetch cache-buster with the v36 bump.
