0.4.0 is the second to last major update before Pit of Ascension is out of Early Access! The total boss and ability count has been upped to a whopping 27, which means even more variety between runs. There's also a super secret boss you'll have to go out of your way to fight- but the battle will be worth the effort!
Changelog
- Added new bosses and abilities
- Go all-in on Aaron with Cylinder Roll, which increases your attack speed after a roll
- Bedazzle Archie with the Blink Point, which allows you to teleport to a previously saved location
- Break Beau's heart with the Heartstopper, which lets you pause time for everyone but yourself
- Rain on Ray's parade with Jet Boots, which allows you to soar through the sky at the cost of a fuel meter
- Throw Rocky for a loop with Charge Shot, which fires a powerful shot if you haven't attacked for a while
- Make a knuckle sandwich for the Silver Sisters using the Kinetic Energizer, which causes your attacks to do more damage when you run straight towards the action

- Helium Treads are now Hydrogen Treads, and cause you to do more damage while in the air in addition to their previous effect

- Added random buttons to the boss and ability pages of the notes
- Added a short intro before the first ability is chosen

Next update will be the last major one in early access! You may have noticed there is one boss you cannot yet unlock on the notes page- this will be the final boss that players will face at the end of every run! The mechanics planned for the boss will require a lot of work though, so look out for an update in the future.
