Black Ice May 2021 Update: Couriers!

Hi everyone! superdupergc here, here's the May update! I'm really excited for y'all to try this one.

Highlights

• Courier missions - Challenge your traversal skills with these timed challenges hidden throughout the world.

• New Progression UI with additional rewards for leveling and hacking higher level servers

• AI Updates - smarter ranged hiding, sniping, and keeping distance. Enemies converge better when the hack is ending, and roaming enemies are now able to detect you if you're standing right behind them.

• Also - enemies stagger from damage for longer, which makes getting in close a little easier.

• Lots of gorgeous new item and enemy icons

• Fancy new UI particles

• Lots of new powerups and item drops to find in the world

• Upgraded item brands

• Recycle bin upgrade to reliably give uniques which are subtypes, or tell you if there's no available unique for that item type (but then you should tell me, so i can make one)

• New and upgraded item skins (Green Cosmic, Gold, and Rose Gold)

• Balancing (mostly item damage buffs for weird variants) and bugfixes

• Controller support update - every UI now uses the virtual cursor for consistency and ease of use, and the cursor now has improved handling

• Lots of item balancing, in particular buffing some of the weirder weapons

• Tons of bugfixes

Next up, I might do some courier variations, or I might get working on the achievement overhaul and unlock store :)

Happy hacking!
