👋 Hey everyone! A lot of you suggested they would like the end-game to be more difficult. To create this extra optional challenge, we’ll be introducing Bliss Curses.
Bliss Curses are strong, persistent effects that change how you play the game. When a curse is activated, is stays active until the end of the run. These curses give extra abilities to your opponents, so you will have to use a new strategy to defeat them. A few examples:
- Curse of the Leeches - Enemies restore 30 health when they damage a player.
- Curse of the Tower - Enemies can only be damaged from the back.
- Curse of the Infestation - Enemies decompose into pools of maggots upon death. Maggots follow the player attempting to devour him.
- Curse of the Living Death - Enemies turn into Zombies after being killed. They hunger their killers blood.
Players will be able to choose to start the game with up to 6 random curses active. Each active curse increases the amount of resources dropped by the enemies. We’re also looking to add separate Leaderboards for each difficulty to see who can clear the game the fastest with most curses active.
This mechanic is coming in patch 0.6.0, scheduled for early next week.
