Hello everyone!
The time has finally come - Darcy is back! Oh, yeah, and the April Update is Live NOW! If you’re the type of person who likes to dig straight into the build notes, you can find them in all their glory here.
Let’s run through all of the features that this release brought for you.
Mercurio’s story - The Grinning Blade is now out.
You can get this novella at Skeeve’s shop, where he’s giving it out for free (what a deal). Once collected, navigate to the Novella in your inventory to give it a read.
Our detailed post about the novella can be found here.
Probably the most exciting part of this update - the changes to the Explode Pool.
Each hero’s Explode Pool is now equal to their Spirit stat. If you’re Corrupted, your explode pool is based on the Rot value and not your Spirit. As a result some of the cards have been changed and new cards have been added.
Our post describing the mechanics of the explode pool and our motivation behind this decision is here.
We have added 2 new cards to the game to complement the changes to the explode pool - Blackberry Dust and Mahogany Stuff.
Blackburry Dust gives you +1 to Health and Magic but takes away 2 from the explode pool.
Mahogany Stuff is an equipable item that gives +1 to Spirit and adds +1 to explode pool.
Full description of the cards and their effects can be found in our post here.
Below is the list of the known bugs that might affect some players:
- In-game inventory might not reflect items you have but Steam will show them correctly
- Decay Amulet might apply damage incorrectly based on your rot level
- Pink (some say magenta) skins are still there. This colour is all the rage this season.
- King might not have Voice Over in the beginning of the game
This about wraps it up. Go ahead and try it out for yourself, hopefully we have covered everything in this post but as usual, your feedback is always welcome!
Mmmmmuch love,
