01 May 2025Developer post

"Enemies start with -x% HP" no longer stacks. Only the highest effect is applied, up to a maximum of -25%. It won't trigger again after fleeing.

Increased charm penalty buildup after level 3.
Increased chance for bosses to block doors.
Slightly nerfed healing (reduced gain from merging, slightly lower base values, and a smaller increase from stats).
Slightly increased enemy power level scaling.
Limited dropped items to a maximum of 3 effects, down from 5.
Lowered percentage value caps on ability-related item effects (reduced to 25% max, down from 85%).
Fixed an issue with the Merge-O-Mat and Meat Grinder consuming side slots, now capped at a 40% chance.
Fixed a crash related to the Tinkerer.
Fixed upgrade point notification appearing unnecessarily.
Added a "Disable audio when window is in background" setting, for everyone playing at work.
