Game Elements

Save File

WARNING! READ CAREFULLY: Because of the way art assets are handled in the game engine, the indexing in arcane forge was going off (resulting in some corrupt weapons). To fix this, we changed the indexing of arcane forge, but as a result, we had to clear the its weapons and items, so you will lose all crafted weapons. We're truly sorry for any incovenience that this might cause. You should receive a message when starting the game that states it will apply the fix.

General

Changed the judgement level's background music. Let's see you cry - Increased the power increase between each loop for enemies by A LOT from difficulty Normal to Nightmare, therefor increasing the difficulty between each loop. Gimme That Sweet Loot! - Some props now have a chance to drop materials when destroyed. Move Please - Game window now has borders so that you can relocate the game window. Are you sure? - Quick Restart now asks for confirmation before quick-restarting. Are you sure? - Returning to the Main Menu now asks for confirmation before returning.

Stats

Renamed the stat SPD(speed) to MSP(movement speed), for clarification purposes. Thanks to Steam user Ninby for the suggestion!

Heroes

-Theif: Invisibility -Attacking during stealth now reduces the stealth duration by 0.5 with each attack. This change makes it so that the thief cannot perma-stealth throughout the runs. -Brawler: Spinning Death -Now grants 30 defense instead of invulnerability; -Duration increases by 1 per 3 levels. -Skill's cooldown now starts at the end of cast. Duelist's visual re-made. -Cleric: Gate -Fixed a bug where the cooldown of the non-neophyte cleric was higher than intended.

Items

Beaker -Now gives 10+5x stack_amount hp per 5x stack_amount enemies killed. If you want to suggest more items, please visit the item suggestion thread and share your ideas!

Enemies

Judgement: -Now has voice lines! Ghost: -Greatly reduced spawn rate on first loop. Gimme That Sweet Loot! - Bosses now drop materials upon death.

You do so by using recipes collected in the Forbidden Library (random drop from monsters) and by collecting materials from your runs. Whenever an item reaches full stack, it will drop ingredients to be used on the arcane forge!
