In this playtest we mainly want to gather some feedback on our first origin follower (used to be called "Faction"). We've been working on it for a reeeaally long time, and it's quite different from all updates we had done before. So please let us know you feel about it!

  • Changed "a Camp Amidst a Ruin" event (unlock reroll) to always show up between the first and second hunt, as long as you have killed the dragon once. Also lowered the trinket cost from 14 faith to 10.

  • The game will now remember your combat speed setting

  • Made some small adjustments to some early game card's spawn weighting.

  • Witch's golem will now deal their attack damage (instead of 1 damage) to the witch on death.

  • Witch in endless mode will no longer protect herself from random damage.

  • False sun in endless mode will now scale their stats 90% slower.

If you have any feedback (or want to suggest some new moths), please chat with us in our Discord or post your thoughts on Steam Forum!

Hope you enjoy the game! We appreciate your support. This means a lot to us :3
