Fire, ice, and everything nice. Lady Tallowmere has delivered 6 new shrines to her dungeon for you to discover.

The Shrine Update

Most rooms now have a 30% chance to contain a shrine, with a smaller chance that two shrines may appear. Shrines won't appear in boss rooms.

Shrine Types

• Shrine of Power Applies a double damage effect to your weapons. Lasts 60 seconds.
• Shrine of Swiftness Increases your movement speed. Lasts 60 seconds.
• Shrine of Wealth Grants extra coins from enemies. Lasts 60 seconds.
• Shrine of Regeneration Grants you increased health regeneration. Lasts 60 seconds.
• Shrine of Chilling Gives your weapons an icy touch. Lasts 60 seconds.
• Shrine of Fire Ignites your weapons with fire. Lasts 60 seconds.

Activating a shrine will apply a visual effect to your hero and/or weapons for the duration. Fiery Ice Wands? Icy Katanas? Double Damage Rocket Launchers? The power can be yours – if you're lucky.

Other Changes

• Bloats and Zaeries that are chilled when they die will now chill nearby enemies that are hit in their death explosion.
• Bloats and Zaeries that are on fire when they die will now ignite nearby enemies that are hit in their death explosion.
• Fixed an audio issue that could cause the game to lag the longer you played.

Dev Console Commands

If you'd like to cheat and spawn a shrine immediately, you can open the Dev Console by pressing the ~ key and type: [quote] spawn double damage shrine spawn haste shrine spawn wealth shrine spawn health regen shrine spawn cold shrine spawn fire shrine [/quote]

Indulge Lady Tallowmere and see how far through her lovingly violent dungeons you can delve in this 2D indie action roguelike-inspired platformer. New rooms are procedurally generated every time you play, meaning you'll have to be on your guard for every randomly-placed enemy, elite, boss, and treasure chest you'll come across.

Each room gets progressively bigger, harder, and more rewarding the further you go.

The concept is simple yet hard to master:

• Raise your shield to block enemy attacks.
  
• Lower your shield and strike your foes when the timing is right.
  
• Jump or move to avoid traps, or use your shield to reduce damage taken.
  
• Find the key to advance to the next room.
  
• Collect weapons, outfits, headgear, and shields of various rarities to aid your journey.
  
• Turn in souls from slain enemies to increase your base stats and passive abilities.
  
• Stay alive as long as you can!

Brace yourself as you learn the quirks of each foe, trap, and room type so you can strive for that "one more run" high-score victory! Each dungeon is infinite in length so it's up to you to push your limits; local scoreboards and online leaderboards let you track your greatest efforts.

Available for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. Play with keyboard (and optionally mouse), or use your favourite gamepad/controller.

Tallowmere offers single-player and local co-op madness (up to 4 players) for fun frantic couch gaming.
