• Your cactus now fights on its own — spikes fire automatically at the nearest enemy. Your taps still fly on top of that, and the faster you tap, the faster the cactus keeps firing by itself • Rebuilt progression — fewer levels, far bigger steps: every growth is a real leap • Rebalanced upgrades — each purchase gives a noticeably bigger boost • Rebalanced enemies — a much gentler first few minutes, and no more dull stretches where nothing gets tougher • New growth screen — see exactly what the next level changes before you commit • Redesigned interface — new windows, new icons, clearer numbers everywhere • Upgrade and skill descriptions now show the value you'll get after the next purchase • Hints no longer pause the game or force you to tap • More dew — it now drops from defeated enemies, and quests, traders and bosses pay out more • Mercenaries knock on your door far more often • Growth progress no longer resets when an enemy steals a sip of water • Ads now load reliably on the very first launch • Faster startup and no audio stutter when the game begins • Speed-up simplified to a single x2 boost
