📜 Patch Notes 0.13.8 – The Revelation Patch!
This is the big one!
With the Steam Page launch, I am dropping the largest update ever! Packed with new content, polish, and surprises. Let’s dive in! ⚡
🆕 News
🎶 Music & SFX arrive!
Around 20 brand new tracks have been added!
Each Arc now has its own battle themes, with unique tracks for Elites and Bosses! You’ll also hear fresh music for the Lore Nodes, the Main Menu, the Calamity and (soon!) the Shop.
On top of that, I have added 35+ new sound effects, making fights, cards, and events feel far more alive.
And yes, there’s finally a Settings Menu where you can tweak volume sliders 🎚️.
📖 The Lore Node
This new node gives runs an overarching objective by unlocking Permanent Relics that persist across runs. Occasionally, it’ll also grant powerful one-time-only game-breaking rewards for your current run.
Don’t worry: the roguelike spirit is alive and well. The focus remains on depth and complexity, not just raw power.
This is also your direct link with Nyssara, the Ancient Dragon 🐉 you’ve already glimpsed, and the start of a coherent, lasting narrative that spans beyond a single run.
✨ Currently: 12 quests with unique rewards.
🎯 Goal for release: around 45 quests, tied into a full storyline.
From now on, you’ll always encounter 3 Lore Nodes per Act.
🕺 Community-Chosen Characters!
The votes are in! Out of the 10 candidates, the community chose the Elementary Dancer and the Ash Gunner 🔥.
These two will be developed in a future patch, thanks for shaping the adventure with us!
💥 Juice & Polish
Screen shakes, bloom, blur, post-processing effects, and tons of new animations are in.
Combined with the fresh SFX, everything now feels way more visceral, especially when you smack enemies for 10+ damage 💪.
♻️ Cards can now be played twice (or more)!
The engine has been upgraded: cards can be played multiple times in a row.
This opens the door to crazy combos and synergy explosions. 🌋
