addedNow though I'm confident it's time for you guys to try it out for yourselves :) There's a lot of new stuff to try and I hope you'll enjoy trying out the new objects and challenges especially!
fixed14 NEW items that will definitely switch things up during your runs - 2 NEW challenges - The Darkness challenge will now begin with 2 Gorgon Eyes 😵 - You can now leave corrupted chests for 5 HP (thought this would add some extra strategy!) - Non-stackable items will no longer appear if you already have one in your inventory (no more frustration!!) - Reworked items that trigger power (i.e rings) - Removed feedback button
changedIncreased the overall difficulty (I follow internally win rates to figure out the right balance) - For Azerty, the Iron Block is now a stackable item - For Phade, the Return power now leaves a sword card instead of a road card - For Raven, the Armor power now costs 4 instead of 7 mana
addedIn addition, I wanted to say I'm working on bigger patches for the next weeks/months with LOTS of new content, here are a few things I'm working on:
addedEndless Mode - highly requested! I’m working on finding the right balance for this mode and how to make it worthwhile - Draft Mode - where you would build an inventory at the beginning of the run and face the Fold with it. This might be a separate mode or a new character - More achievements - why not right? - A new level type where you can pick a new power - and obviously, NEW characters!
