As most critical bugs got fixed we decided to publish fewer but larger updates. We were hard at work during the last few days. Among many fixes and balance tweaks, there are new environmental effects in Hell (lava is actually flowing!), lots of additions to Catacombs tileset and controls are now mappable.
So, without further ado, I present you the newest patch:
Version 0.71.10.10477+ - 26 Aug 2016
- Controls are now mappable. The controls option is now available in the in-game menu
- WASD users can now disable “mouse click to walk” in the new controls menu.
- When using keyboard controls hovering mouse over cards no longer interrupts movement
- Big Catacombs tileset update - including new generation rules, decorations, thematic groups, color themes and more!
- Hell tileset update - new tiles and many bug fixes for wall geometry
- New animated lava atmospheric effects in hell
- Graphical props such as piles of rubble, holes in the ground, will no longer disappear when you re-enter a level
- Another bug with clean sweep counter squashed! The counter was corrupted each time you entered a level with a cursed chest that was already open.
- Fixed a bug where on some levels dead monsters would be generated
- Balance: monsters with skills will no longer cast immediately after performing a complex action (such as teleporting or hiding)
- Balance: spiders have been rebalanced
- Balance: skeletomancers no longer summon linked monsters
- Balance: cursed chests have been rebalanced
- Balance: ranged monsters attack ranges reduced, monsters with teleport now have a distance cap
- Balance: Boots card is no longer required for fire to damage golden hearts, this is now a universal mechanic
- Balance: Heal Spell Card has been boosted
- Balance: Burning Axe will now properly spawn fire when attacking monsters with fire hearts
- Balance: Disarmor card now destroys all shields not only reveals them on level one. On level two and three it creates shock waves originating at destroyed shields that damage other monsters.
- Balance: Boots on level 3 now will allow trampling Slimy Spores
- Balance: in the Antipope quest, skeletons won't be scaled to player level anymore.
- Balance: Reduced amount of gold and upgrade cards dropped in Freeplay (to slightly increase difficulty)
- Entering a level does not trigger monsters (action or movement does)
- Fixed missing restoration fountains on Antipope quest level
- Monsters with golden hearts now spawn minions when damaged
- Fixed map generation algorithm that could fail in some rare occasions
- Some dialog windows have been changed to transparent texts because they were obstructing view in dungeon
- Dark and golden footsteps are more visible now in Catacombs and in Hell
- You can now restore hp and mana in town just by hovering over vials on Healer's barrel
- Minor corrections in game's stringtables.
- Poison damage now bypasses monster shields.
- Bomb cards have been nerfed considerably (fixed a bug that would almost double the number of bombs now cards toss 5,8,11 bombs as intended, was 9,12,15)
- Fixed Level Clear issue on Cook level
- Mana scroll drop will now correctly display its name when ALT is held down (used to display health scroll's name)
- Launcher: Fixed a crash when the book was clicked quickly before change log had a chance to be displayed.
- Fixed multiple bugs with bosses having shields
- Fixed bosses staying blue after being frozen and progressing to next state
- Icicles can now be destroyed by holding LMB on them
- Archdemon shard guardians now won't respawn after loading the game.
- Tombstone now auto-pickups when the player is closer than 150 units. This should help with monsters ganking on stairs.
- Fixed a bug in the Archdemon quest, causing Angel cutscenes to play at wrong locations after the game was loaded.
- Added scaling to fire effect - if framerate drops fires on screen will scale down to prevent further framerate drop
- Blast! Boom! KABOOM! achievements count card uses not bombs thrown, as was intended.
- Fire on the ground no longer hurts gargoyles (stone hearts are fire resistant)
- Moved padlocks on cards in bar when upgrade window is open, now they don't obscure card icon
- Cards in bar now display upgrade tooltips when upgrade pane is open
- Stolen cards now automatically equip on pick up
