[p]Hello everyone! [/p][p]The time has come, the Paws & Claws Update is live![/p][p][/p][p]Here's a TLDR of the content, for full details keep reading: [/p]
Pets are new, you might want to highlight them or see less of them when going into your Endless runs. You can change the highlighting and opacity of Pets in the accessibility options.[/p][p][/p][p]Like other items, Pets have to be unlocked. Here is the list of the items with their unlock challenges: [/p][p]![]()

[/p][p]
To unlock the Beast Master, you must unlock the Bonk Dog, the Catling Gun, the Bot-O-Mine, the Blazemander and the Lootworm. [/p][p]The idea behind the character is to fight solely with Pets. So, the Beast Master doesn't use weapons and instead uses his wild ways to make his pets super strong! [/p][p][/p][h3]QoL and Codex additions
[/h3][p]
New timeline representation on pause menu.
[/p][p]Now, when you pause during a wave, you will see at the bottom of your screen where you stand in terms of waves and upcoming threats! Visually helpful and practical.

Swimming animation in Abyss
[/p][p]If you own the Abyssal Terror DLC, you’ll notice that Brotato does not walk but now swims. Because we figured that what was missing in a game potato with six floating hands was realism. [/p][p][/p][p]New info in the Codex

[/p][p]Introduced in the lastest update, New Dawn, the Codex now includes better representation of enemies HP and speed as well as visual of their attack pattern. Because sometimes, images are worth a thousand words. For every change and addition, see the patch note at the end of the post. [/p][h3]
New Achievement and Steam Point items
[/h3][p][/p][p]New Achievement [/p][p]Okay so this was a tricky one. With the arrival of the Beast Master, we made the choice of adding 1 new achievement. We were hesitant at first. But every potato got 1, why not him? [/p][p]
[/p][p]So there you have it, a new achievement unlockable by winning with Beast Master (on any map, base game or DLC)! [/p][p][/p][p]New Steam Point items[/p][p]They are available! We've added new cool items in the Steam point shop! [/p][p]Get Brotato stickers, animated avatars, animated profile background or customize your Steam Deck with a Brotato intro video! [/p][p]![]()

[/p][p] [/p][p]WE NEED TO KNOW WHAT YOU THINK[/p][p]That's pretty much all for Paws & Claws! The update is out but that doesn't mean it's the end. We still need to know what you think so that we can tweak, tinker and adjust. It's only our second update after all! So don't hold back! [/p][p]Cheers, Dalloks & the EE team.[/p][p][/p][h3]
