We're still hard at work preparing the Vexington Hotel for its grand opening. Tell us about your rides on 👻🏨 THE SPIRIT LIFT demo in the comments below, and we'll be in touch soon!

We're so happy to hear you've been enjoying our demo! Here's a small update to address some bugs and add more movement speed options.

Also, we want to assure you that the full game will be much more challenging than the demo! This is the type of game that requires dying many times to learn strategy and earn ways to make the next run easier. Or even harder, if you're into that!

We are a smaller team and balancing a deck builder takes time and patience, so thank you again for your feedback. By the way, how many of you found the secret event hinted at in our demo launch trailer?

Changes include:

• New option to turn off movement arrows
  
• Sliders for movement speed and rotate speed
  
• New option toggles for hold to rotate and hold to move
  
• You no longer see a run log tutorial if you die
  
• Multi-attacks update the health bar multiple times
  
• Multi-attacks stop if the attacker dies during them
  
• Brightness settings do not reset on a new run
  
• Coin icon added to gold rewards from events
  
• Options text scrambling randomly is fixed
  
• You can no longer gain extra regen by clicking End Turn after all enemies are defeated
  
• Minor fixes to typos and text color

👻🏨THE SPIRIT LIFT is a ghostpunk deckbuilder roguelike set in a haunted hotel. You’ll be playing a group of teens surviving and thriving as they battle monsters and explore mysteries with the help of a mystic elevator!
