Changes & Fixes

  • Made it so you get 3 mana a turn instead of 2 after the first turn

  • Lowered the cost to remove charms

  • Increased difficulty level 2’s enemy health from 10% → 20%

  • Swapped difficulty 8’s increase enemy health for one that makes it so you get only 2 mana a turn after the first turn (so the game plays like how we initially had it)

  • Increased Metal Beans event rival health reduction from 30 → 50

  • Made circuit breaker relic only give mana every other combo break instead of every combo break (this relic was way too strong, even more so with the new character)

  • Made the mysterious portal not be able to spawn the checkpoint boss (we liked it, but we also understand it might be a bit too unfair at times)

  • Display card rarity during combat (added mostly for the new character)

  • Fixed a really niche bug with the way the enemies order was being displayed that could cause a crash

  • Fixed wording on charms like squall to make them more clear
