Summary (AI)
Cult of PiN patch 0.23 introduces a direct ramp exit to the right flipper and relocates the Shop slot to the upper table for easier access. New gameplay elements include a Ball Capture slot with a unique capture and release mechanic, plus ball teleporters that create shot opportunities on the Ritual Altar. Several mission and target adjustments have been made alongside improved collision detection, raised drain walls, and reduced bouncer bounciness to enhance playability. Save frequency has been increased to reduce progress loss, and various bug fixes address boss behavior, unlock triggers, and UI issues. The patch also rebalances the Monarch Ball damage and makes early game targets easier to defeat.
Tip: expand all for quick scanning.
- Direct Ramp Exit: The right ramp now exits directly onto the right flipper, allowing for better shot setup after completion.
- Upper Table Shop: I've relocated the Shop slot to the upper table area as it was very difficult to reliably hit.
- Ball Teleporters - Replacing the old Shop Slot is now a ball teleporter - get the ball into this pipe and it will exit at the very top of the table, firing directly onto the Ritual Altar and starting a series of ricochets against the other Bumpers. There is an additional teleporter behind the Shop slot as well.
- Drain Protection: I've raised outer drain walls to prevent unstoppable side drains, causing some fairly regular and unfair losses.
