Happy Holidays!
We've got exciting collaborations, support for wider aspect ratios, performance improvements, and made a few balance changes to some cards.
Improvements! Tweaks!
While we're awaiting news from our publishing and porting teams for the Android mobile release, we're bringing some more of the under-the-hood improvements to PC! This includes support for ultrawidescreen up to 21:9 and various hitbox and font size improvements for our touchscreen mode and general performance improvements.
The Watcher joins Fraymakers
The Watcher is making an appearance in McLeodGaming's upcoming title: Fraymakers. Check them out and maybe pitch in to their Kickstarter if you want to see a crossover fighting game starring indie characters and a character creator. We think it's pretty cool!
SteelSeries Game Sense Support
We collaborated with SteelSeries to bring lighting effects to your gaming peripherals. Very shiny stuff.
Run Data
Our approximation of what the charts will look like.
We've been receiving a lot of requests for Slay the Spire run histories for data analysis projects. We've heard you! Our kind moderator and helper Jake/ilikeshiny (who's working on his own game PogoChamp by the way) has rounded up 27gb of data and pinned it to our #data-analysis channel at the Slay the Spire Discord server.
Do you want to see which cards are chosen most often in Act 2? Which cards are picked more often for experienced players non-experienced players? What's the winrate for Ascension 20?
All of these answers and more can be found in this archive of 77 million DEATHS runs of Slay the Spire.
