Hey everyone!

Friedemann here 👋

Today’s update brings some early new gameplay features to the game's default branch that improve balancing.

A lot of you mentioned that certain item combinations (especially the ones focussing heavily on re-spinning) can make the game a little too easy. Instead of just nerfing those items (boring), I’ve been working on new enemy actions that counter those powerful builds and make fights more dynamic and interesting.

This update introduces:

• Symbol cursing (some enemies curse one of the symbols on your wheels, disabling it for the rest of the fight -> encourages strategies with more than 3 symbols)

• Aggro meter (some enemies have an “aggro” bar that fills up with every re-spin of the wheels, triggering an interruption of the player turn when it’s full)

• Fixes for some rare cases where the game would soft lock 

• Fixed a rare issue that would corrupt & reset the save file & crash the game

• Various very minor balancing adjustments

These gameplay additions are meant to keep things interesting, still allowing respin combos to be quite powerful, but not completely OP.

Once you’ve had a chance to try it, please share your feedback here or in the discussions, it’s been super valuable so far and I’m reading everything. Would love to hear what you think! <3

Cheers,
Friedemann

Hey everyone!

Friedemann here 👋

This update (1.0.11) introduces:

• Fast Mode (beta) – speeds up gameplay. This is an early version, expect minor bugs and please let me know what you think! Enable in Game settings.

• Resolution and windowed mode settings – you can now adjust these from the visual settings

• Fixed the bug where one of the dice disappears. Let me know in case it still happens! 🎲💀

Apologies again for yesterday's 5k chip bug. I'll keep today's update on beta branch (to access: Right-click the game in Library -> Properties -> Betas -> select "beta" from dropdown) a little longer to make sure something like this doesn't happen again.

For those affected by the chip bug: I’ve added a button in the debug section of the settings menu that refunds all your modifiers and subtracts 5000 chips from your inventory. Completely optional, but there in case you want to undo the effect on your progress.

Once you’ve tried it out, let me know how it feels! Feedback on the new Fast Mode especially would be super helpful.

Cheers,
Friedemann
