Patch Notes for v0.9.40

Happy Holidays everyone! We come to you this holiday season with a new update for the game! This addresses a number of bugs, streamlines some of the initial experience with Peglin (the character) and adds some new enemies and encounters to the game, including the elusive Rainbow Slime.

[h3]Balance changes

• Opposite Rearction changed to fire more copies of orbs with variable force instead of one orb at an increasing force

New Features[/h3]

• New encounters! New Mines Miniboss and two new regular battles.

• New Roundrel Relic, the Redoublet

• The Roundrel now keeps their hat on when celebrating a boss defeat
