Mastery Expansion Announcement
From March 5th you can first get your hands on the Mastery Expansion DLC for the whole weekend for free by right-clicking Core Defense in your Steam library, choosing "Properties", then "Betas" and finally selecting the beta branch. I'm planning to kick off the beta weekend with a dev stream where I'll be playing the the expansion and answer all your questions: March 5th 8pm CET @ https://www.twitch.tv/ehmprah
The eponymous feature of the DLC is the Mastery Progression: you will gain experience for every game of Core Defense you play. With every level up, you will gain a mastery point, which you can spend in mastery pages unlocking bonuses like the following:
With the DLC, you can toggle SUPERCHARGE mode when starting games to activate one additional difficulty modifier chosen at random from the following options:
With the expansion, Core Defense will finally get a DAILY CHALLENGE, which will have a fixed seed, difficulty and supercharge modifier and an online leaderboard so you can prove your skill on the global stage. Once you've submitted a daily run, you'll get access to the leaderboard, including the infographics of other player's runs so you can check out what other players are doing to defend their cores. As opposed to most new features from the DLC, the daily challenge will be freely available to everyone!
I can't wait for y'all to get your hands on it! And thank you for your support! Without you, this whole expansion wouldn't be happening! Cheers, ehmprah
