• [2.1.0] Aetherium Forge - 28 November 2025

  Hello Looters! First, an important technical update regarding Gems. The amount of gems being farmed from bosses was way higher than we originally anticipated. Because of this, we had to rewrite the internal logic for how gems handle data. This means old gems cannot stack with newly dropped gems. We know this isn't optimal, but it was crucial for the game's performance. We highly recommend combining your existing gems before updating since it you CANNOT combine them anymore after update. Now that we have that covered, onto the main news! The Aetherium Forge is Here! A brand new Realm has opened. Go and explore what it has to offer! New Companion We’ve added a new early-game friend: the Gilded Companion. This can be bought very early on from the Permanent Upgrades menu for just 1 Million Gold. Quality of Life & UI Improvements UI Clarity: We’ve added a breakdown of "Active Gear Effects" t…

• [2.0.2} Stationary Shop & Merchant - 14 November 2025

  Hello looters! Our beloved merchant is finally back in town after wandering through all the nearby pubs to bring you the finest drinks and rarest goodies. While he was spending an enormous amount of time away, we realized he should not be the only source of Awakening Scrolls. Therefore, a new stationary shop has been added to the game! It offers all the same goods the merchant would, but without his amazing deals. Small bug fixes were also made related to gem drops, and hover UIs received a bit more polish. We hope this update finally brings peace to your prestiges! And as always, Happy Grinding!
