v0.87 Patch notes
New Additions
- Reworked the Spell System! The main goal of this rework is to make Spells feel more enticing and more convenient to use. Most new spells will achieve something unique and flexible, occasionally even modifying your playstyle. Almost all old spells have been removed, with the remaining ones rebalanced. All spell cast animations have been reworked and should feel smoother.
- Added 20 new spells + 5 old, rebalanced spells
- Spell Monument updated. You will now be able to choose from 2 options when adding a new spell. Spell adding sequence VFX and SFX polished. Unlockable spells updated.
- Trinkets: Overflowing Goblet and Sorcerer's Amulet reworked
- Added a new purchasable unlock for Blobert, "Enemy Passives"!
- Added 23 enemy Passives. Some of these Passives' power level scale with floor.
Tweaks and QoL changes
- With the "Upgraded Enemy Skill Pool" and "Enemy Passives" options unlocked, you will get a score bonus on run end
- Improved the way enemies are spawned. The game can now check number of enemies obstructing paths, and there is a limit to the number of enemies that can obstruct paths per floor. Number of enemies per floor should be more consistent. Average enemies per floor ~3, average number of enemies that obstruct paths on floors ~2.
- The first two Skills you get will always be a Red skill
- Enemy Modifiers will now display details when hovered over
- Keeper Rooms now have room indicators and minimap icon. Keeper enemies have a unique sprite

- Windowed mode can now be resized. However, this may cause the UI to appear distorted. I'll be implementing better support for more resolutions as soon as possible.

- A message will now be displayed if all enemies on the floor is defeated
- Minor polishing
