Hello everyone!
It’s been 5 days since release, and we’re bringing another mini-update packed with miscellaneous changes. Let’s go through them!
Performance Improvements
First and foremost, we're focusing our efforts on improving the game's performance. This includes general optimizations and, most importantly, reducing loading times.
In this update, we’ve introduced an initial round of changes to make the game run smoother. However, we’re still working on more significant improvements to further cut down loading times in future updates.
Balance Adjustments
We’ve made a few tweaks to enemies in difficulty D1. We noticed that many players are struggling in D1, and we’re aware that the jump from D0 to D1 is currently too steep. We’re actively looking into ways to make difficulty progression feel more natural, so expect more changes in the near future!
Additionally, we plan to rework the Roachvil enemy, as its current Accurate Kill mechanic can feel frustrating. More details soon!
UI Enhancements
We’ve added tooltips to all events where properties are mentioned, so players can quickly check what each property does before applying it to their dice.
For the next update, we’re working on expanding tooltip functionality in the backpack menu, making all menus more cohesive and providing a comprehensive description of all dice-related effects. Here’s an early sneak peek:
💚 Thank You!
I also want to take a moment to thank everyone who has been posting feedback on the forums, creating content, and just enjoying the game!
With the launch, ongoing updates, and future plans, we haven’t been able to respond to every thread individually, but we’re reading everything and will continue to do so!
