This is easily the biggest update to FAN'CIE VEER! since I launched it four years ago, back in July of 2018!

Here are the changes made in this update:
- The scoring has completely been reworked to now reward much more based on your current crash combo stream regardless of what level you're on. Your level still plays a part in your crash combo scoring but most of the weight is on how well you're doing crashing through rocks.
- I've added a counter in the background to show you how many seconds you have to crash through your next vektoroid to keep your crash combo streak alive. This is extremely helpful, and definitely help adds excitement and pressure as well to your game!
- The time you're allowed to keep your crash combo streak alive has been drastically reduced from 7 seconds prior to this update to 4.5 seconds in this update! Yes, it's a massive change, but with the counter now clearly visible, this time between combo crashes had to be reduced, or it was just far too easy.. and not challenging at all.
- At the end of each level, you'll be given all new "level difficulty" points based on the average speed of the vektoroids, the number of vektoroids, and the number of vektor fish you encountered.
- Points for collecting cake and milk have been heavily increased.
- Extra life rewards have been changed to 25k, 50k, 100k, 250k and then every 250k thereafter. (Previously this was 10k, 25k, 50k, 100k and every 100k thereafter)
- You're now able to use the TAB key to change the game from full screen to windowed even while paused or in the welcome screen.
- Tabbing to switch between full screen and windowed now gives an audio sound to reflect the change
- The volume slider has been fixed to now work as intended.
While some might think changes this drastic to the scoring might mean a wipe of all the current high scores is needed, I believe that this new update will allow for even higher scores then ever before! Time will tell. ...Where can you place yourself on the high score list with a little practice?
I believe this this update is a solid update that should make FAN'CIE VEER! more enjoyable than ever before! ..I hope you enjoy it as well! Be sure and let me know in the comments below!
