Did you see JD die on level 2? He does in the a new video we just added to the store page. It's a fresh Developer Walkthrough and for your amusement we're posting it here as well:

Better AI
We've also just released a minor update, known by the catchy name of v1.12.4. In this version we fixed some issues with certain items not dropping and leaving some chests empty. We've also improved the AI a little. Their path finding should be better, as well as their behavior using shields and swinging weapons.
Content Sneak Preview
That's not all we did this week, we are also working on some special floors to be encountered in the Dungeon of Doom. If you watch the video closely, you can spot a book mentioning the Labyrinthine Library. That's one of such floors. If you cannot wait to explore these new floors, you can already check them out in the open beta, called the Unstable Branch. This branch is available to anyone by right-clicking Unexplored in your Steam Library, selecting Properties and navigating to the Betas tabpage (you can switch back whenever you want).
We've created the Unstable Branch to test new stuff. Your feedback on it is much appreciated. In fact playing that branch is a good way to support the development. Although the chances of running into bugs also increased.
On the plus side, we've got some cool content lined-up for the Unstable Branch: more special rooms and floors, but also a really cool new feature where other players may find your final resting place in daily and weekly runs.
