addedFirst of all, big thanks to GL1TCH3D from the steam discussions for their super helpful write-up covering the ascension difficulties, which most of this patch is based on! A lot of it is smaller balance tweaks, but there's a few big changes too. First, I've added the Codex Mortuorum, a compendium available both from the main menu as well as in-game in the store and minion management screens, which allows you to view all of the content you've unlocked so far in the game. I've also added a stronger tower shield, and most items now scale stronger later in the game. The snake also briefly becomes immune after losing a segment, to prevent from losing too many in a mob. I've also added several new snacks and rebalanced many existing snacks and relics, and the ability to sell unwanted upgrades.
