Boons & Burdens goes Gunlocked and on sale!

Patch 0.20 of Boons & Burdens just launched and it brings with it a whole new way to play called Arena. This mode is heavily inspired by Gunlocked, so if you were hoping for more Gunlocked style action, this is the update for you! Turn on auto-aim in the options, and you almost wouldn't know the difference (almost, lol).



If you've been waiting to grab a copy until more content and features were in, now's the time!

I'm currently re-running the previous launch week sale for all of my games, including the bonus discounts on the bundles. Buy Boons & Burdens Here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2646120/Boons__Burdens/

With last week's Rings of Power and this Arena update, there's plenty of bang for your buck (shameless promotion over).

[h3]Arena Mode Features [/h3]
  • Survive for 15 minutes in a single arena
  • No burdens, sacrifices, or portals
  • 6 new potion powerups can show up in chests (see GIF above)
  • Special combat events can trigger periodically, spawning unique enemy configurations and special hazards
  • Collecting gems levels you up, allowing you to pick one new upgrade each time
  • You get 1 reroll per level up, but the Ring of Rerolls can extend this
  • Upgrade beacons appear, and allow you to choose boons when charged up. These favor upgrades for abilities you already own when possible.
  • Enemies do not drop Infernicite in this mode, instead you're awarded Infernicite based on every minute you survive, with a +10 bonus for victory.
  • Certain rings behave differently in Arena. You can toggle between arena/classic descriptions in the equipment menu.
