Hello,
Hope everyone's having some fun and the sun! Taking a break in the shade to play Slay the Spire is nice, too :).
This week's focus is mainly on content and improving usability for Custom Mode.
Face Trader
It's a new event! This event shows up in any Act and can give you 1 of 5 relics
exclusive to this event, we think it's facetastic.
Shop Relics
The third relic sold by the merchant is now always a shop rarity relic. To prevent players from seeing too many familiar relics there, we added 5 new shop relics! (Spoilers in patch notes)
Relic Overflow Paging

We noticed that relics got a bit too small when people were having fun testing the game's limits. To maintain a reasonable hitbox, we removed the shrink logic and replaced it with arrows to allow you to page through relics. We decreased the spacing a bit, so it can pack 25 relics per page.
Community Fan Art
Didn't post any last time, sorry. Send us more! It's amazing to see the game's characters drawn (or created) in so many ways. Thank you!
