UPDATE 1.2 (Strange Tablet, New Item)

The main goal of this update is to improve Burn builds and bring back the Strange Tablet “Boss” from the demo. There’s a new item, a new collection, leaderboards for Arena, a few crucial fixes (crashes, achievements, rebirth time), and multiple lesser ones, some of which have been here since the beginning. Steam Cards will be available next week (see below).

All changes (v. 1.2.10):

  • Added Strange Tablet Boss Rush (fight with a new “Boss” that was previously only in the demo version, beating it unlocks Strange Pet and the new item)

  • Added a leaderboard for each Boss Rush

  • Added a new item collection: Slayer Collection I

  • Added a new item: Inferno Incense

  • Added a slight variance in Chest Helper's move speed so they don’t look like a single person

  • Show additional info on a few Items: Zephyr Fan stacks, Ungodly Flail if flailing is active, Inferno Incense bonus stacks applied, Dowsing Rows chest count, Toxic Tongue bonus stacks applied

  • Fixed an issue causing a crash after 1-2 hours of gameplay

  • Various memory optimizations

  • Validate if each unlocked achievement was unlocked on Steam when entering the achievements panel for the first time (and unlock them if needed)

  • Alchemist and Marketplace don't need to be hovered on to begin the restock countdown after launching the game

  • Shorten Burn stacks count text if needed

  • Fixed Phoenix rebirth duration calculations (now it's 30s base as intended)

  • Fixed Hypnothreeck Lv. 3 and Lv. 4 Health and loot chances being the same as Lv. 2

  • Fixed Boss names being cut short if the respawn happened very fast

  • Fixed Temple of Clouds’ UI being cut out when the larger UI setting was active

  • Fixed a few ‘Slayer’ achievements being called ‘Hunter’ instead

  • Fixed loot chances showing values above 100%

  • Fixed Monsoonael Lv. 2-4 position being too close to the ground

  • Removed the additional offset added between Ballista's bolts on Great shot (visual change only)

  • Adjusted Baldog’s collider to match the sprite properly

Steam Community Items / Cards

We haven’t realized the items need to be approved by Valve first (which makes perfect sense), so they are not available yet, unfortunately. We didn’t want to postpone the update for it, especially since they won’t need an update for the game itself. They should be added sometime next week.

Bundle with Gamblers Table

Have you heard about Gamblers Table, a recently released incremental game about tossing coins? We made a bundle together, which means you can get both games at a reduced price:

ROADMAP

In case you missed it, here’s a roadmap we’ve shared in the previous news. We hope you like the direction we are going with the updates.

Enjoy!
