Hello everyone! We have another update today that includes some new features, tweaks and bug fixes. One of the interesting suggestions we got from Discord is about unique passive abilities per Archetype. In this hotfix, we've added our first Archetype passive abilities - primarily new means for the different Archetypes to produce more Chaos Orbs. In the future, we'll probably have more passive abilities that the player can customize so these will also be added in the Loadout Menu eventually.
The next update will be around the end of the month which will be more focused on new features and UI improvements rather than bug fixes.
NEW
- Ravager passive ability - All Monsters spawned by the Ravager produce 1 Chaos Orb when they die
- Lich passive ability - Lich will initially have a friendly relationship with the Undead faction
- Lich passive ability - All characters belonging to the Undead Faction produce 1 Chaos Orb when they die (except for Zombies that have a smaller chance of producing Chaos Orbs each time they die)
- Puppetmaster passive ability - Villagers produce 1 Chaos Orb each time they gain a personal Enemy and produce 2 Chaos Orbs each time they gain a personal Rival
- All archetype passive ability - Chaos Orbs that expired will still give the player 2 Mana each
- Player request - A new Free Mouse tick box has been added to the Settings Menu to allow the mouse to exit the game's screen
- Quick Save Button - F8 (this will be configurable in the future, alongside other hotkey buttons)
