Backpack Hero News

Our winter event is ending soon! We already have the new update on our testing branch! I hope you had a good time! For now all festive items will disappear, but they'll be added back as an optional run in the near future!

Changes:
Ended the winter event
Updated Kickstarter list
Updated translations
Added a proper loading screen

Bug Fixes:
Fixed the "Delete All Saves" and "Delete all progress" buttons
Fixed a glitch where sale prices were not displayed
Ember Shard now sells for the same as other relics
Fixed a glitch where the conductor and conduit wouldn't work together
Getting two different curses in the matching game no longer counts as a match
You can now rotate items with the arrow keys again

This will be moved to the main branch shortly!

I hope you're having a lovely winter! Our winter event begins now with lots of new things to discover in the dungeon! Hear the festive new music! Wear a winter cap! Use your controller!

That's right! Backpack Hero now has controller support! We're still working on it - so please share your feedback. It should work with Xbox, Playstation, and Steam controllers!




There's also lots to discover in this new Winter event!

New Stuff:

• Winter music
  
• Wintery main screen
  
• It's snowing in the dungeon! (It's magic)
  
• 14 new Festive items!
  
• Collect presents and take them to Tiny Chuck and he'll give you a gift!
  
• There are 15 new items that you can get as a gift from Tiny Chuck. Some of these will surprise you!
