Item

Spicy Sauce is an in-game item that can be bought from a Shop or can be found in a Crate. Most Items modify the Stats of the player, and some of them provide additional effects.

Quadratic Scaling

Both the damage and the chance to cause an Explosion increases when you gain additional Spicy Sauce Items. So the chance for an explosion is 25%/50%/75%/100% as you get up to 4 of the item. The damage is 100%/200%/300%/400% of your Max HP as you have 1-4 Spicy Sauces.

Because of the quadratic scaling, once you start getting Spicy Sauces, you want to get as many as possible.

The Tooltip will only the damage of 100% of your Max HP. So if you have 4 Spicy Sauces, the actual explosion size is 4x higher.
