addedThe fourteenth update for Swarmcade is now live, and it brings two new characters to unlock, a new Ultimate to discover, a sneaky new secret boss, new achievements! Alongside the usual Balance, QOL, tweaks, and bug fixes.
changedWindwaker HeroAlongside the bananarang weapon, the Windwaker hero starts with a unique fairy summon. The fairy has a few functions. She will heal the player when in danger (at or under 40% HP), attack enemies (with scaling damage) and "special" moves that will be amusing to fans of a certain massive game series...
changedGhost HeroThe Ghost starts with the Nom Nom weapon and has a unique passive ability to inflict fear most regular enemies periodically throughout runs (bosses and elites are not affected). Affected enemies are visibly changed whilst they are under the fear status. The best thing about this is that Ghost can then run into scared enemies to kill them instantly (you will not take damage). You gain more XP when you do kill them this way as well. It's a very unique and fun character trait and changes the way you play the game. Instead of avoiding the enemy, for a brief period, you can go after them every time it happens.
