Alpha Update 12 - Changes, changes everywhere!

[img=http://forced2.com/images/Forced2_Update_A12.png]

Hello everyone

Sorry for being silent the past few months, we had some hard decisions to make regarding the direction of the game.
We ultimately arrived at a really cool concept though, which is a new way to do our bosses and the focus of the game!

You’ll notice a lot of changes to everything, almost nothing has been left untouched, and this also means many cards and decks aren’t relevant anymore, so everyone is back to square one for now :)
This is our first version of a new way to do our game, but rest assured we will be improving upon it in short order so you can start building cool decks to defeat overpowered bosses!

Features

  • Massive Boss Rework
    • Bosses are now only in the final arena (like real bosses)
    • Bosses cast Global Abilities in arenas as you play.
    • Added Voice Acting to Ratbo, Mordar, The Firelord and the Laser Rat Boss
    • New boss: Ratbo version 2

  • Pit rework - The Star system

    • You gain a Star when you complete a Pit run
    • You lose a Star if you are defeated in the Pit
    • You now get a random number of arenas and worlds based on the number of Stars you have
    • The number and strength of enemies scales with your Stars. Can you make it past 10?

  • Added Summoned Units System

    • Summoned units have special graphics
    • They are destroyed when you kill all regular enemies
    • They do not trigger offensive player Mechanics such as Kill or other On Hit effects

  • Champions now start with all their abilities at the beginning of a run.
  • Rebalanced some Champion abilities
  • New Cards

    • SoL: Fusion Power, Behold Me!
    • Volco: Volcanic Reach, Volcanic Smash, Spin to Win, Forest Fire
    • General: NanoMed Injector

Balance & Changes

  • There’s so many changes we can’t even begin to describe them here, so we’ll let you find out all the good stuff for yourselves :)
  • We should mention however, that the Ravager and Stormbringer have been disabled as selectable champions for now. They need a bit of love before we include them again :)

We really hope you feel this update was worth the wait, we certainly think so!

Enjoy!
