  • If a Tree Stump explodes in the forest and no one is there to take damage... - 5 March 2023

    Don't you hate it when you enter a magical forest, fight Gary the Tree Man and his offspring explode in your face? That'll still happen, but at least they now shouldn't teleport a short distance anymore after dying! Whoops.

  • Small patch - 5 March 2023

    Just a quick update for a few small things: - Fixed the rounding on the Shield value, so you should no longer have 2.200000006 Shield... - Fixed the tooltips for Trainer Joe's, he was flat out lying sometimes. Again. - Lowered the Health of the main bosses of the second and third quest a bit. - Added a few more variations to the Castle maps in the second quest. Enjoy!

  • Vibing - 3 March 2023

    We're live! Thanks everyone for your support, it means the world to me! In other news: Do you like music? Well, you no longer have to first go to the Settings menu. Quick and easy hotfix to make sure the music starts playing right at the start. Enjoy your Goblin slaying, while vibing!

  • Launch Patch 1.1.0 - 2 March 2023

    Hopefully the last patch before launch, he typed knowing full well it wasn't going to be. New Content: - new item: Goblin Mead (legendary) - new item: Shovel (Epic) - new item: Molotov Orc (Epic) - new item: Crusader's Sigil (Legendary) - new item: Reinforcing Plates (Epic) - new item: Cookbook (Rare) - new item: Skewer (Uncommon) - new item: Nice Guy Cape (Rare) - new item: Scroll of Experience (Rare) - new item: Gobbo Coins (Legendary) Balance: - Slightly lowered Pocket Ballista damage again - Daninyo's speed to damage conversion increased - Daninyo's Speed modifier decreased - Malika's Health lowered significantly - Blaze's Health lowered significantly - Flint's Health lowered Fixes & Others: - All tooltips now show percentages where applicable - Treeman now always drops a chest (unless you have insanely low luck) - Bob's spawning animation (from the Preordered Grave item) fixed

  • Patch 1.0.4 - 28 February 2023

    This patch is mostly intended to make the game a little more accessible from the start. Some things weren't really explained before... and now they are! Quality of Life: - Changed the narrated explanations for the shop, the wave, the level up scene and the level select map to only play once on your account, so you no longer have to listen to that every run. - Added narrated explanation for the correct facing for melee weapons (plays on the first wave the regular explanation doesn't play, so either 1 or 2) - Added narrated explanation for how to lock the shop (plays on the first shop the regular explanation doesn't play, so either 1 or 2) - Added narrated explanation for how modifiers work (plays on the first shop none of the other two explanations play, but only if you have a modifier, so can be at any stage) - The Reroll button now turns black/white when you don't have enough money to…

  • Patch 1.0.2 - 27 February 2023

    Another small patch as I receive feedback from the community! Performance: - The overall performance was increased so the game should run a lot better on older and lower end hardware. Bugfixes: - Fixed the rounding of the attack speed of melee weapons on the level up screen - Fixed an issue where tooltips could remain on screen when resuming the game Balance: - Pocket Ballista's damage and damage growth when upgrading nerfed - Phoenix attack speed and damage buffed significantly, hopefully making it an exciting pick again

  • Patch 1.0.0 - 26 February 2023

    - Reworked the way Boss hitboxes work (every enemy with a large central health bar, 12 in total). They now have separate hitboxes for hitting and getting hit. This makes it feel a lot more fair. - Lowered the overall damage for every enemy in the Malika questline by 10%. - Lowered melee damage for Flint, Blaze and Malika. - Treasure chests spawn less often (from rolling every 3 seconds to every 2 seconds) to compensate for the lower difficulty, and reducing the amount of choices made in the shop. - Fixed a bug where items you couldn't afford would only get the red border to indicate so, when you were hovering over them, or rerolling the shop. - Lowered the sound effect when you're trying to spend more money than you have. - Changed the Pickup Range tooltips to a percentage.

  • Small Patch 0.9.96 - 25 February 2023

    - Changed the way analog sticks behave in menus, so they should be less 'jumpy' now and allow you to actually get to the buttons you want to. - Fixed a small bug significant bug that could lock you out of a run. It was Trainer Joe's again. I docked his pay in retaliation. - Rebuilt the tooltips for items offered in the shop, they now dynamically build from all the stat changes the item has, plus a specific tooltip (for special effects) if available. They now apply your current modifiers to those stats, so what you see if what you'll actually get.

  • Patch 0.9.94 - 24 February 2023

    - Fixed a bug that made it possible to start without selecting a champion, that is no longer possible. The result was you still had that champion... but not the modifiers. The To Battle button will be black/white to indicate it's unavailable - Fixed a bug in Quest Select that was similar to the one above. The To Battle button there will also be black/white when you don't have an unlocked quest selected. - Broken Arrow weapon was removed (it was clunky and unintuitive) - Fixed a bug with the item Love Potion that could make you stuck at your current level - Lowered the volume of the 'Hover' sound effects by 50% - Fixed an oversight where weapons in the level up screen didn't show damage/attack speed based on your actual stats, but always showed the base damage of the weapons. - Added upgrade counters to the offered weapons and applied the actual stats and upgrade level based on what you…

  • Small patch 0.9.9 - 22 February 2023

    This is just a small patch intended to fix an issue some users experienced with a controller, particularly with checkboxes rapidly toggling on and off.

  • Small patch 0.9.8 - 21 February 2023

    Tired of getting one shot? Well, time to get two shot! This patch introduces a protection against those heavy hitters. You can now no longer take more than 80% of your maximum health in damage, from a single hit. Also tweaked the damage scaling of enemies, so you get a couple more levels before everything gets too scary.
