Playtest Update #12

[p]Hiya!
As some of you know, I’ve been speeding up the process of adding more content while I’m in the middle of moving to Berlin.[/p][p]I feel like we’re getting close to having enough depth in terms of the number of cards and curios, so this update for the Playtest Version focuses on expanding those areas even further.[/p][p]This update introduces:[/p]
  • [p]3 new cards[/p]
  • [p]5 new curios[/p]
  • [p]13 new boss modifiers[/p]
[p]You’ll also run into some brand‑new bosses, as well as updated versions of older ones. I’ll keep tweaking and balancing them in upcoming patches.[/p][p][/p][p]Another big highlight: we’ve added a brand‑new starting deck: the SHINY DECK!
✨ This deck is packed with shiny cards and comes with a special curio that rewards you with extra moves whenever you match shiny cards.[/p][p]Here’s the full list of new content:

Playtest Update #11

[p]Hi hi hi![/p][p]Another big content update for the Playtest Version![/p][p]I'm moving to Berlin soon and I will lose a few days to settling in there so I want to add in as much content as I can before moving.[/p][p]So people will have enough time to playtest new stuff and give feedback. Then I can focus on fixing and balancing things.[/p][p]This update introduces 9 cards and 7 curios.[/p][p]Once again, enjoy my programmer art:[/p][p][/p][p]I will add a few more cards and curios and then I'm planning to focus on adding new boss modifiers so the game can counter new mechanics.
