addedON ENEMY VARIETYThe most common feedback we received is that the game needs more variety in enemies, and they need to be introduced faster. We agree!

changedON ENEMY VARIETYWhen we released the demo, we wanted first and foremost for you to get a taste of the overpowered versions of the perks and their synergies. There are a lot of them (you can check them in the codex!). This meant we needed to give more play time for the runs. However, all the enemies and their variants we planned to spread to the current run duration are not there yet.

addedON ENEMY VARIETYBut! We think this game lives and dies by its bosses and enemies as much as its synergy builds. By the time we release the Early Access version, we're planning to provide much more variety in enemy and environment types, introduced at a faster pace.

addedREROLLS AVAILABLE BY DEFAULTWe added a limited amount (5) of rerolls by default. Spend them all at once or spread them out on your run. This should make creating builds more manageable. The Second Chance gem that originally gave you rerolls still works the same, but is limited to one use per level-up.

changedDASH INFLICTS MORE DAMAGEYou can DESTROY enemies that dare approach you by just brushing over them now.

changedTHANKSThanks for your continued support. If there's a friend you think will enjoy our game, please mention us. At this stage, wishlists help enormously.
