Update #2 - Flower Power - Released

The second update for Swarmcade is now live, and it brings another new character to unlock, the Dryad, another new ultimate weapon, balance changes, quality of life, tweaks, achievements and bug fixes!

v0.5.2 Patch notes:

  • NEW: Hero, Dryad - Starts with Thorn Ward, Area+++
  • NEW: Ultimate - Thorn Ward + ???
  • Balance: Ultimate Smite heal amount reduced when paired with Paladin (It’s still good, but no longer AFK good!)
  • Balance: Chain Lightning LV 1-3 damage buffed ("dual wielding" moved to LV4)
  • Balance: Lightning Bolt attack distance decreased (Not a nerf, now strikes will hit at a closer distance to player than before)
  • Balance: Buffed Ninja. Now gains 1 guaranteed hit per cycle of shurikens thrown helping in the early game

  • QOL: Hero descriptions tweaked to mention bonuses
  • QOL: Revive timer reduced slightly
  • QOL: Changed Upgrade Reroll text to be clearer
  • QOL: Changed Lightsword descriptive text
  • QOL: Heart drops no longer instantly “warp” to player. (This is to clear up visual confusion about how players are getting healed when hearts may not been seen being picked up by player. It also allows for a bit of additional strategy as hearts can be left to linger for a little while)

  • Bug fix: Boss music stopped playing after level up
  • Bug Fix: Boss map grid alteration

  • 2 new Achievements added
