addedUnlock spells from The Far GroundsThe Gamble mode now gains progress based on the number of bones you've collected. There are 3 new spells to unlock from playing in the Far Grounds gamble mode, and progress is tracked in the collection, similar to necromancers and their unlocks. Don't be afraid to "cash out" and concede if you're worried you might bottom out. I'm curious from folks on what thresholds for these gamble unlocks feel reasonable. As stated before, there'll soon be unlocks for other modes as well!
addedThe Kingdom MapThe Kingdom Map of gameplay modes is accessed through the New Game option in the main menu, once it's unlocked by winning a normal run or unlock the Fargrounds from gamble wins. One minor update: I've removed curses from the "PvP" mode, as it didn't feel in the spirit of the experience.
