v1.1 - post 7DRL bugfix/polish update


Summary

It's been a couple weeks and we've had a lot of thoughts about balance/pacing problems in the 7DRL release. In general, I felt the game was way too slow and grindy so we've tried to make every move count.

  • Map size shrunk significantly down to 9x9
  • The player now gets a "free move" on each turn (before, it was way too punishing to move around)
  • Bosses have been reworked: no longer spawns on stairs, clearer icons, 2x movement when active, now dropping a talisman
  • 9 new cards to round out some gaps (missing late game spells and not enough FIRE cards mainly)
  • X cost cards now take the largest instead of smallest group. What were we thinking!?!?
  • Music and sound added
  • Options in attune to remove cards or cancel completely. Attune options are sorted from cheapest to most expensive.
  • Mana now flashes on card hover to indicate which group will get consumed
  • Tons of balance tweaks, bug fixes, and UI polish
