changedWhile we were working on the power notes we tried making a melee sword ability, but found it worked best as an equipment. So that's what we are doing. Making the sword a melee offensive equipment item. So players can have fun with a truly melee build. We are going to try to balance the fourth boss to make this item viable.
addedLastly, we wanted to give an update on how we will be rolling out new content. We are really happy with where the game is at and all the new stuff added since launch. However, we are going to be slowing down the rate of content updates. This allows us to thoroughly test, balance and build hype for the new content. Also we are currently working on this game on top of our full time jobs so we don’t want to get burnt out. The previous pace of updates since launch was difficult, but necessary for us to bring the game further towards our ideal vision of 1.0 and we’re really proud of its current state. We are still working really hard on new stuff.
addedAs stated above, our next update will add some new power notes and melee builds via the sword equipment
addedRecent patches have added a lot of power to the player and we’re going to be taking a look at the current state of the game’s balance throughout and addressing any major power spikes
addedAn alternate level 1 to add some variety to each run
