Update 1.4
New
Vows of the Omens
- A fresh omen over a river you have reached now asks for [10 boatloads] carried through it
- A vow kept adds [+5%] to the fare for the rest of the run, up to four vows ([+20%])
- The river tile counts the crossings; the tribute clears the bonus, the weather keeps its window
A Deeper Upgrade Tree
- 82 -> 148: ten upgrades with the step halved and the ceiling doubled
- ~266,000 -> ~507,000 obols: the same boat at the end, twice the purchases on the way
- and grew in price instead — there is no half a seat and no half a rower
- 1 -> 2 levels kept per relic level
- An older save doubles the levels of those upgrades as it loads: your boat is exactly as strong as you left it
- New option folds away the rows you have finished
Voices Out of the Middle
- The words of the dead and the requests that follow them moved off the centre of the screen: they no longer cover the boat, or the soul asking to be carried back
- A bubble you have finished reading can be shut with a cross
The Rivers Stop Repeating Themselves
- questions 20 -> 32 on the Cocytus, the river you spend longest on
- The other four daimons unchanged: they ask two or three things in a run
Voices That Were Wearing Thin
- 6 -> 18, and the last six never come round again
- 5 -> 12: his arc used to run out at the fifth tribute and repeat forever
- and openings 1 -> 4 each; two windows in a row never open the same way
More of the Dead Ask for Something
- 30 -> 42, each spoken by the same person whose joke you just heard
The Ledger
- New page : 256 answers of the five daimons, a section for each river
- New page : the spill, the board and the first words of every bargain
Bugfixes
- Fixed the issue where the answers of the rivers were written into the Ledger but had nowhere to be shown
