Summary0017907: Energized Glass Hull -- Instant Lose?
DescriptionThis was amusing, it said "infinite energy, but at what cost" so I picked it up. I instantly lost the game! That was a pretty pricey cost.

Pricey indeed! Any specifics beyond that? It shouldn't kill you but it does set your max health pretty low.

Nothing I can recall. I just pressed start to pick it up and seemed to die instantly. I suppose there's a chance that I got hit by a stray bullet that I didn't notice directly after picking it up, and so it may not actually be bugged. I'll keep an eye out in the future to see if it reoccurs.

Please do because I cannot replicate this issue. It is true however that the item sets your health dangerously low which means one bullet will usually kill you.

Does it change your max health and/or subtract from current health? Idle guess is that it is reducing health when you might not be at full health resulting in death, or that it is killing off the low health ships and not the higher default health ships.

After messing around with it for a good while it looks like the max health setting was incorrectly dealing some damage to the player even if for a fraction of a second, signalling death. This should be fixed in the next build. For now if you encounter the item and you're not full HP don't pick it up because it'll probably kill you.
