Spellmasons Major Update: New Wizards

Hello Spellmasons!

This update has been a long time coming and I'm super excited to announce...

Major Feature: Deathmason as a playable character.

Unlike the Spellmason who contends with the tradeoff of which spells to devote mana to, the Deathmason uses cards to cast.  This means, if you have a card, you can always cast it (keep that meteor card in your pocket until the perfect moment!), but can only cast whichever cards you have during any given turn.

You redraw cards each turn, up to a maximum amount.
If you want different cards you can discard and redraw 2 for 1.
You can lock cards so they don't get discarded until the end of the level.

Major Feature: Goru as a playable character.

Goru is potentially the most difficult to play as but also the most rewarding (In my opinion). Goru uses souls to cast. You must acquire more souls by picking them up from corpses to keep casting. Unlike the Spellmason and Deathmason, you cannot sit back and restore at the beginning of your next turn. You must push on, into danger, to collect the souls of your victims. However, this can result in very powerful and satisfying runs where carefully planned turns can devastate your foes.

If you do not have enough souls to cast, you can spend into "soul debt" but it'll cost you 5% health for every 1 soul debt each time you cast. You must be very careful about spending souls that you don't have as it will become quickly very difficult to survive.
Goru and Deathmason unlock after finishing the tutorial

Bug Fixes
