Closed Beta Patch 0.2.24
CLOSED BETA UPDATE 0.2.24
It’s another batch of polish and goodness, in your favorite frequently-updated Roguelite!
For your viewing pleasure, we’ve got a bunch of polish from watching recent streams over the last week, as well as a MUCH more engaging end of run/achievement/unlocks screen (we never really liked the old ones that interrupted you while playing.) And you can now Master items (and actually see the progress clearly in your Murderpedia) by winning games with them!
And...a giant [DEV] section of patch notes with under-the-hood setup for Big Stuff coming in the not-too-distant future. W00t, we’re excited!
Enjoy!
Features:
-- Mastery! If you win a run with an item, it now becomes Mastered and you can brag to everyone know know
-- Murderpedia Updates:
-- Unknown/Seen/Mastery status displayed
-- Overall cleanup/polish on visuals for unknown items
-- Added new Murderpedia section for Insanity Modes
-- "Miscellaneous" section of Murderpedia is now the simpler "Loot"
-- Run Completion sexiness!
-- Achievements and Unlocks display at run end, along with newly seen or mastered mutations. Snazzy!
