Summary (AI)

The 1.1 update for Everything is Crab introduces the new Ultimate Ability "Lick Wounds," which provides healing with a cooldown reduced by damage taken. The "Tracker" evolution marks Alpha enemies with a new Tracked effect, granting cumulative bonuses and influencing enemy targeting, with several evolutions and specialisations interacting with this mechanic. Various evolutions and gameplay features have been rebalanced, including the addition of Charm chance tooltips, permanent stat increases with Stoner kills, and adjustments to enemy behavior. The patch also adds new cosmetics, achievements, improved map elements, input rebinding, and expanded Twitch integration for interactive streaming. Numerous bug fixes, quality of life improvements, and balance changes accompany these additions, enhancing both gameplay depth and accessibility.
