Hello alchemists! While our lore update isn't ready yet, we've been working on other features that should bring more life into the game. Since we're happy with the state the game is balanced right now we began working on ways to make it more challenging for those who've already completed this early access version or to go easier on those who are struggling with the mechanics or who may be new to the genre. Let us know what you thought of these new modes, and if you can beat the harder mode you can totally brag about it! Here's the list of changes for this update:

• New difficulties added! - Apprentice and Savant modes are open by default, and if you prove that you're ready Master mode will be waiting for you!
• Added a animation for the recipe book - since it's the most important part of the user interface we thought it needed more love
• Added a new artifact: Ring of the Frozen Soul - which comes with a new gamechanging status, Invulnerable
• Added a new seasonal theme for the holidays
