The primary cause of the issue stems from loading a variety of assets and keeping most of them loaded in memory simultaneously. This approach not only uses excessive memory but also leads to gradual increases in memory consumption during gameplay, particularly when memory-intensive actions occur. This accumulation results in significant lag as users continue to play. In the current version, some scenarios require up to 4GB of memory.

While it is challenging to completely overhaul the asset loading structure in a short time frame, we have made interim adjustments by changing the way critical assets—those contributing most to memory waste—are loaded. These assets will now be loaded on-demand. In the next patch, we plan to fully optimize the asset loading system, ensuring smooth gameplay even on devices with less than 1GB of RAM.

+The issue has been identified as ongoing, and we are currently investigating the root cause. A hotfix will be deployed once more.


Fixed a bug where Joker Pockets were not correctly calculated as all colors when determining Monochrome bonuses.
Fixed an issue where selecting a Portal Pocket with a Pocket Ball and clearing the round made it impossible to designate the portal again.

In this patch, a new class called Hunter has been added. Depending on the actions you use most frequently during gameplay, you will gain different abilities. Utilize abilities that suit the current situation to clear the game!

Additionally, this patch introduces unique badges for each class. These items appear as rewards after defeating bosses and either enhance or modify the abilities of each class. Currently, five items have been added for each character except the Hunter. More items will be added in future patches, and badges for the Hunter will be included once the class has been confirmed to be functioning as intended.

Finally, adjustments have been made to the Archer class. Due to feedback that its abilities were unintuitive and difficult to use, the ability will now activate after every three uses of the ball, rather than only at the end. This change should allow for more varied and strategic use of the Archer's abilities.


- Changed the behavior of Target of Fate so that it now always grants a chip, even if the ball does not actually land in the target pocket. Additionally, clarified in the text that the ball will generally always land in the target pocket.

- Fixed a bug where attempting to view the details of an item without a description in the shop would display placeholder text.
- Fixed an issue where All Joker would always activate whenever a pocket ability changed.
- Fixed a bug where the Archer was not unlocked after completing the tutorial.
- Fixed an issue where the Trickster’s pocket expansion occurred excessively often.
- Fixed a bug where token duplication was guaranteed to appear in boss rewards.


- Fixed a bug where the class descriptions displayed incorrectly.
- Updated the text for Target of Fate.
- Adjusted the No More Gambling text to indicate failure occurs when a "bet" is unsuccessful, not a "chip."
- Made several minor text corrections.

Thanks to Fabian Fischer's great suggestion, we've created this bundle. If you're someone who doesn’t want to stop rolling the ball, this is a bundle worth checking out.

Rack and Slay is a billiards roguelike dungeon crawler with dynamic, unpredictable gameplay, as the ball can go in any direction!

https://steamproxy.com/steamstore/bundle/45957/Bingle_Bingle__Rack_and_Slay/

Development on Bingle Bingle is also ongoing! We’re working hard towards a UI patch, and we sincerely appreciate all the feedback you've provided.

Enjoy the game and look forward to more exciting updates for Bingle Bingle!

In this patch, over 80 new items have been added. These include various new badges, quests, and reward badges, as well as reworks to classes and house edge, changes to the shop system and functions, and overall balance adjustments.

Previously, the limited range of choices made the gameplay feel repetitive. In version 0.5.0, we have focused on addressing this issue. This patch is not the last, and more options will be added in future updates.





+The balance of existing balls and special pockets has been adjusted, and some mechanics have been modified.




Players can now more actively search for items in the desired category. This increases the strategic options available in the shop while eliminating the frustration of waiting for the right shop to appear, as was felt in previous patches.

-You can now change the type of shop you will visit next, at the cost of 1 coin.

-The full shop lock feature has been removed. Instead, you can now right-click on individual items to lock them at the cost of 1 coin.

-Locked slots will bring up items from the next shop category, rather than the locked item, during the next shop reroll.

-Puck has been moved from the badge shop to the pocket shop.




- The coin bonus ability for all classes has been unified to gain extra coins based on the number of tokens left in the round.

The coin abilities were tied to vastly different elements, causing balance issues when adding new features. Some classes became overly powerful, while others couldn't use them at all.
This patch reduced class diversity, so we plan to add class-specific badges in future patches.

- The number of tokens in each class's basic deck has been reduced, and different betting types have been included in the first deck.

This aims to make other betting types more accessible from the start. Previously, even after adjusting pockets, finding and using the desired betting type was too restrictive.


Several typos have been corrected.

Performance-related issues will take some time to resolve as they require an overall system adjustment.




You can find more details in the beta version patch notes below.

- Various new badges have been added!


- The Joker Pocket's multiplier reduction has been changed from 50% to 20%.


- Classes no longer have unique gold abilities, and as a result, the Trickster's ability to store round tokens has been removed. All classes now earn extra gold based on the number of leftover round tokens.
- While this patch reduces the distinctiveness of each class, we found that having different gold abilities was a major obstacle to adding new badges with diverse abilities. In the future, we plan to address this issue by adding badges that make class abilities more interesting.


- Rainbow Token no longer changes the bet type, but only changes the Bet Ability.
- Pocket Fixer has been divided into five versions: straight, split, street, corner, and line. Each version is provided with the corresponding bet.
- Two new starting items have been added.
- The Stake Raise has been removed from the game and replaced with around 10 new badges that increase round tokens while imposing various penalties.


- The default house edge (Pizza) now starts with 0 points. The previous selection method was confusing, and adjustments have been made to fit with recent value changes. The increasing reroll price is no longer a house edge function but a base feature.
- In the default house edge (Pizza), the price of items increases gradually after purchasing 10 or more items.
- Zero Verde no longer starts with a 0 pocket in round 1-1. Although intended, it was simplified for clarity.
- Dwindling Rose no longer permanently weakens a token. Instead, one token is randomly selected at the start of the shop, and its value is reduced to 0.5x for the next round.
- Sealing Hipflask was highly frustrating when it didn't align with a player's strategy. With the removal of the shop lock, it had the potential to become even more frustrating, so its function has been changed to lock a token after it has interacted once.
- The three house edges related to RunStreak, previously at the bottom, have been removed. They didn't add gameplay interest and caused confusion. The WinStreak system will return in a different form later.
- Three new house edges have been added.
- Unlucky Martini’s value has been changed from 30 to 20.


- Fixed a bug where the Wood Puck could gain points when rolling the ball.
