OVER THE TOWER changes
Steam post imageSteam post image
The Ver.2.0 update is now live!
This update includes a great many changes, headlined by the new ASTRAL feature and new relics.
■ New Feature: ASTRAL
As announced in our previous preview, the new content ASTRAL has been added.
ASTRAL consists of the following three elements:
・ASTRAL Skills on equipment
・ENDLESS ASTRAL mode
・ASTRAL Crystal Enhancements
This content is primarily intended for after clearing the OVER Floor, but ASTRAL Skills can also be granted to equipment obtained within the OVER Floor.
■ New Relics AddedSteam post image
Several new relics have been added beyond the OVER Floor.
・Generating "Daggers" that count as Sword Damage
・Launching "Beams" that count as Staff Damage
・"Mushroom" relics that reduce enemy HP by a percentage
■ Specification Changes
Score Attack
・In Score Attack, enemy HP now gradually increases as you progress.
・Partway through, some enemies will now grow gigantic. Defeating gigantic enemies grants more score.
・ Existing scores have been reset. (Already-unlocked achievements remain unchanged.)
Random Stats
・Random stats will no longer grant elemental stats that differ from the item's own element.
・New types of random stats have been added.
Relics
・When multiple "Element Ring," "Cloak," or "Helmet" type equipment are equipped, their effects are now added together rather than multiplied.
■ Balance Adjustments
Drops
・Increased the drop rate of EPIC/LEGENDARY Sword and Staff items.
・Changed the maximum number of coins you can hold to 999,999,999.
・Equipment dropped on already-cleared floors now has its level increased by +1.
・When the rarity-up rate is 100% or higher, rarity will now rise by two tiers depending on the rate.
Weapons
・Adjusted the attack power granted on acquisition for PLAIN weapons and EPIC/LEGENDARY swords.
(This is generally a buff, but the "Star Sea Dragon Sword" alone had higher attack power than other elements, so it has been nerfed. Star Sea Dragon Swords you already own will keep their high attack power, and you are free to keep using them as is.)
Relics
・Buffed the values of many relics.
(Due to the specification change, Element Rings, Cloaks, and Helmets have reduced impact when multiple are equipped, but in exchange we have increased the effect amount per single piece.)
・When the activation rate of a special attack is 100% or higher, the special attack will now trigger two or more times depending on the rate.
Floors
・Adjusted the difficulty of some floors.
・Increased the spawn rate of enemies when few enemies are present.
Enhancements
・Reduced the cost of Damage Bonus.
■ New Functions
・Added victory and defeat animations for mini characters.
・Added sprites to explosion attacks.
・Added a button to proceed to the next floor on the result screen from Floor 26 onward.
・Added an equipment display to the Score Attack results.
・Added descriptions of the unlock conditions for upgrades.
・Implemented a damage abbreviation display feature.
・Implemented a cursor color change feature.
・Added items to the status display.
■ Bug Fixes
・Fixed an issue where attempting to remove an equipped relic would also remove the staff.
Thank you for playing OVER THE TOWER!
