Thank you all for the massive support on Hackweight! 
It was quite an effort to get it out last month, but the amount of support the project got has made it totally worth it. Thank you all for playing and giving me great feedback, it's allowed me to develop a clear vision for the potential this game has and what changes I need to make, and I'll be going over some of those plans in this post; both in the short-term and in the long-term

With the launch of Hackweight, it's become clear that the game needs some accessibility features for people who have a hard time beating the characters within the limit of the timer. Based off of feedback received, I plan to add the following QOL improvements and features in the not too far out future:

-Timeless version: A hack attempt is always active, and all that is needed to advance is to generate the goal amount. No timer and no real way to lose- for a casual experience of the game.

-Difficulties: Different options to change the hack attempt goals. Go easy for 50% less hack score needed, or go with hard to take on a new challenge with doubled required hack score.

-Gallery: See the Full sequence of each completed Character outside of their level in a Gallery.

-Multiple Input: A new feature on Hackweight screens that can repeat Inputs for enhances and other commands. Options are 1,2,5,10, and 25.

-Win statistics: See which plugins were the most effective and how you played through the level.

-Other QOL: Pastes now have 3 uses before expiring. Clicking on plugins will automatically put their enhance/unlock command in your bar. New unlockable plugins will have ! visuals on them. Reroll command for RW plugin for keyboard accessibility.

Along with these changes, there will also be a host of bugfixes (improper font display, inaccessible EXIT button), some rebalancing of plugins, and some new debug commands to reobtain progress as a temporary substitute to a lack of a saving feature. 

Following this update, there are plans to add new content to the game! These plans are very new and subject to change, but this is a good idea of the direction atm:

-At least 3 new characters, Ashe is confirmed!

-A "final" character to bookend the game.

-8 New plugins. (Word Combo, Line Duplicator, Letter Bonus, Translocator, Password Crack, Double Enhance, Crypto, Boost)

-An Endless/Arcade mode to the game.

-Modding support.

-More narrative/ fanservice elements.

-SAVING!

-Public release.

No ETA on these larger updates, but you'll likely be hearing about them more not too long from now!

Please continue to leave your feedback about Hackweight, it is incredibly helpful as the sole developer of the game. I hope you're all excited for these upcoming changes and future planned content! Hackweight's journey has only just begun, and I hope you're all looking forward to the ride c:
