Beta update 1.3.09f2

Hi all, lately we've been mostly working on technical tasks and optimisations, though we have a couple new features in this version.

We had a little hiccup with our stealth test of this update, though the issue should be resolved now for anyone affected. If you find new bugs, it's helpful to report them via the in-game reporting tool (in the escape menu) as this will send us more information to help identify and fix them.

We hope to fully release this content in coming months and appreciate the feedback so far!

Features

  • Added a Bestiary page in the Collection The Bestiary will display creatures and stats that have been seen per difficulty.
  • Add filter for locked/unlocked to Achievements page
  • Save System now has a disincentive to repeatedly continue... After much discussion we feel we've found a good way to help people play and resume at their leisure, while having a consequence for trying to manipulate a run (which most people don't)... Without spoiling anything, all I'll say is you'll know.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed issues with Swapper and interactions that disable attacks
  • Gambler's Reward adds health based on the amount of negative stats the player has, and not the sum of negative stats
  • Dog pat no longer shows splash damage projection on neighbours
  • Demolitions Daily Dungeon does not overwrite explosive creatures
  • Particular Taste Daily Dungeon affect mimics
  • Fixes for the mid-game saves on Mac
  • Freeze immune monsters properly project their attacks
  • Hit Owl with spoon achievement now works for all versions of the owl
  • Fixed softlock where player dies, and attempts to use a door with exit modals enabled

Improvements

  • General performance improvements, including game load time, which should be much faster
