Hey friends! We’ve got a huge update here with a special Encore Rank 3 for each Hero now available. Your first Rank 3 win with each hero will unlock a special relic that lets you apply their special ruleset to any run along with a boost to your gold potential. So if you can manage all the extra challenge, there’s new highs to be achieved on the leaderboards!
To join the beta branch:
1. Right-click on the game in Steam and select Properties.
2. Select the BETAS tab and enter the password supersecretbetabranch
3. Select the beta branch from the dropdown.
4. It should update right away! You will know you’re on the beta build if you see a new version number in the lower right on the Roundguard title screen.
5. After you start the game up, if your save files don't copy over and you'd like to keep playing with your main game save progress, you can go to C:\Users[your user name]\AppData\LocalLow\Wonderbelly Games\Roundguard and copy/paste the files from the "saves" folder into the "beta" folder.
