This update is all about feel. We went through the whole interface and polished the screens you spend the most time on — especially the dungeon.
NEW: Dungeon Screen Effects
Turn the arena into an old CRT, a worn film reel or a cinematic widescreen shot.
- CRT, Retro, Modern and Cinematic modes
- Find them at the top of Settings, or click the new TV button next to the dungeon name to switch on the fly
- Purely visual — no effect on gameplay. Off by default.
Dungeon Panel Overhaul
- New ornate frame around the whole dungeon panel
- New header with a tier badge showing which tier you're running
- Tier cards now spell out Reward and Danger at a glance
- "Top drops" now shows each item's Power instead of its gold value
- Redesigned hotbar: potions, speed control, auto-potion and repair are cleaner and easier to read
- Rotating tips on the idle screen while you pick your endurance
- New entry card when you step into a dungeon
- A clear heads-up when you don't have enough gold for the entry fee
- Floor rings under your hero and companion now hide once the run starts
- Enemy HP bars drain faster and cleaner
UI & Visuals
- New hand-crafted frames for the Casino, Duel Hall, Arcade and chest screens
- Refreshed window headers with a softer, modern look
- Your chosen theme color now tints window headers and the top bar
- New Close buttons
- Duel Hall now shows its own emblem in the header
- Click the Anvil Life logo to check your version
Quality of Life
- The game now always launches in Wide mode
- Maximizing or going fullscreen while in Vertical mode switches you back to Wide automatically
Bug Fixes
- Fixed an oversized tier badge in Vertical mode
- Fixed a Duel Hall card preview that could get stuck on screen
- Fixed the music controls overlapping the window's close button
Thanks for playing — see you in the dungeon!
