addedMiscNothing worse than getting stuck between a rock and a Goblin: Added the ability for the hero to Dash! Use the spacebar to move the hero through obstacles. Beware, the hero can still be attacked while dashing. The dash distance is based on the hero’s move speed. - 2 new Steam achievements, "It's a trap" and "Archaeologist."

addedReworksAvils now give the option to gain a charge when the relic is max level - Enemy Mole: Even after several re-works, I haven't been able to make the Mole's movement behavior feel good. It's buggy, annoying, and frankly, not even that interesting. I've decided to re-work the moles abilities from the ground up. Maybe I'll revisit this randomized movement or something simular in the future, but for now, this is the new Mole behavior - Now has the same movement behavior as other enemies (Treant, Goblin, etc.) - Starts with a magic shield. Any instance of damage breaks the shield. Once the shield is broken, the Mole takes damage like normal.
