Hey Parasites!

Thursday July 30 marked the second week since Pathogenic launched and the end of our launch sale. Thanks to all of your support, these two weeks couldn’t have gone any better. We are truly grateful for everyone playing Pathogenic and sharing your thoughts on the game.

We are getting plenty of feedback from the community every day, and will keep working on fixes and optimizations to address issues you bring to our attention. Here's a new batch of updates aiming to resolve various bugs and crashes, as well as improve your gameplay experience.

*Please note that this update might make some mods incompatible with the new version. If you experience crashes after the update, try unsubscribing from your mods.

New stuff!

Added some heart rooms.
Iridophore Membrane now shows a protective bubble while you're invulnerable.
Demo version re-released.

Balance

Small balance adjustments to some lung rooms.
Boss armor now activates at lower DPS but scales slower, so it's less punishing to huge damage builds.

Made Lil Collector dodge speed more consistent.

Fixes

Improved performance at lowest graphics settings.
Fixed combining bug for eternal organelles.
