A Whole New World: Update #2 Released!

The second major update to Pylon: Rogue has been released! Dubbed "A Whole New World",
this update adds 10 new items and improvements to the world map, such as a dedicated shop button, streamlined paths, champion enemies, and more!

Patch Notes:

  • Added Champion Enemies
    • champions have a chance to appear on the world map after completing a level
    • if you and a champion occupy the same node on the map, you are teleported to an arena to fight
    • once the champion is defeated, you are rewarded with a chest containing better-than-average loot

  • Added 10 New Items
  • Added a button that can be used to travel to the shop while on the world map (the shop no longer spawns as a level on the map)
  • Added a widget to the world map HUD that indicates the number of rooms and locked chests in a level (must be standing on the level node)
  • Removed some redundant nodes from world map generation
  • The boomerang is now 300 gems at the shop (down from 400)
  • Fixed a bug causing some characters to inflict twice as much damage on a crit as intended
  • Fixed a bug causing some locked items to not track their progress toward unlocking
  • Frozen enemies no longer animate
  • Misc minor bug fixes
