Hello everyone,
We're excited to bring you today's update on the enigmatic Dregg faction, known for their zombie-infested swamps deep within the kingdom. This update introduces a new unit type to the faction: the Spore Sprouts. These disease-spreading monsters are a terrifying addition to the Dregg ranks. Covered entirely in fungus, Spore Sprouts mindlessly seek to infect new hosts with their mind-controlling spores that fill the air around them.
New Unit: Spore Sprouts
Description: Spore Sprouts are relentless in their pursuit of spreading their fungal infection. Beware if you find yourself within melee range of these creatures—quickly create distance or stun-lock them before they release their spores into your nostrils, turning you into a mind-controlled zombie for a significant duration.
Challenge: Avoiding their "personal space" is tricky, as they leave behind a trail of poisonous mushrooms. This further limits your movement, especially on smaller boards, making strategic planning and loadout selection crucial when facing the Dreggs on higher difficulty levels.
Our team has dedicated much effort to diversifying the enemies within each faction. This not only varies your challenges but also ensures that more complex and formidable foes emerge as you face factions at greater difficulties.
Coming Next: The Dregg Treant
Stay tuned for our next update, in which we'll delve into the Dregg "treant"—a formidable entity that needs a fitting name.
Thank you for your continued support and feedback.
Best regards,
The Playwood Project Dev Team
