Hey folks! Big update as we prepare for Next Fest! Our new Art Director has been hard at work on new visual effects for the game, a teleporter to bring you between floors, and a new animated player character! Stay tuned, because we're going to be continuing to improve the looks o
This is a small patch adding a boss entry cutscene and a boss defeat cutscene for the first floor spider boss. The 2nd floor boss is temporary, and so does not have cutscenes. This patch also fixes some minor issues Fixes an issue where energy pickups would sometimes expire while
Changes: Buffed reward rooms to always contain a high-tier item Fixes an issue where boss SFX volume would be unaffected by the SFX slider Fixes an issue where defeating the second boss would not show the win dialogue and would leave a teleporter that would softlock the game if u
Procedural dungeons are finally here! Dungeons will now be different every time, and they'll continue to get more and more different each time as development progresses and more room types, challenges, and upgrades are designed. This update also includes a new fog of war feature
Thanks to my playtester suggestions for this one, this new upgrade lets projectiles you've parried bounce once off of a wall they hit. Let me know if you'd like to see this buffed or altered! I've also made the Perfectionist upgrade findable in the Dungeon, which boosts your dama
I had an amazing time this last week showcasing the game at AGDQ and MAGFest, and got so much great feedback from a wide variety of players. While much of that feedback won't be incorporated immediately, there's lots of new ideas brewing and work I hope to be able to accomplish a

This patch is mostly little fixes and improvements, but I've also added a new song that plays on Floor 2 of the dungeon! The camera is also now impacted by the presence of enemies, and the cursor can now move through walls again. Fixes: The boss now causes screenshake on attacks
With GDQ and MAGFest fast approaching, I'm mostly working on polish and features to make the demo experience for showcasing work as well as possible. For (likely) the last couple features before the showcases, there's a little more variety now! First, while the dungeon is still s
In this update, I've overhauled all of the logic underlying the upgrades system! Generally this won't have a big impact on gameplay, but it does have a big impact on how quickly I can implement new upgrades and the variety of upgrades that can be implemented. To show this, I have
Some minor polish. After changing camera systems in November so that the camera could move around properly, screenshake was broken. Now it's back! It can still be turned off in the options. I've also added in damage numbers and health bars. They're a bit rough right now, but I'm
There is now Gold in the Dungeon! Now your gold will show where your score would show previously, and your combo now increases how much gold you're awarded with each kill! Play aggressive and parry often to maximize your gold. And what's gold without a shop to spend it in? There
Big thanks to my playtesters for your support and feedback! Many of the changes throughout this week, including these, have been thanks to your contributions. The multiplier changes are just an improvement to its functionality currently, but also are helping to set up for some fu
Minor update, mostly fixes A health pickup now drops after the first boss and after one of the rooms in Floor 2. Player can no longer clip through certain corners by moving the cursor around to the opposite end of the corner. Player can no longer doom themselves by, when out of c
I've added a Floor 2 with significantly tougher enemies, and more types of enemies showing up on the floor! The boss of the 2nd floor isn't quite new, but I hope you'll accept the placeholder for now!
I've added two new upgrades: Exploding Parries and Orbital. Exploding parries makes parried projectiles explode area damage, and extra damage against the parried opponent! Orbital grants you a little friendly projectile which circles you and deals damage to enemies! I also had an

The most common enemy in the dungeon, the plain spider, has had an HP nerf! Any amount of damage will now destroy them, including splash/piercing damage! There's a few more of them to compensate. Turrets now behave a little better generally, but especially in Challenge mode where
