Ranked Matches
New Bosses
Roguelite Mode
Leaderboards/Lineage
Steam leaderboards are now integrated, allowing us to have a ranking of the deadliest decks. How does ranking work? After winning your first run, you'll unlock ranked mode.
(If you won a run before the patch, it's already unlocked, but legacy decks don't participate in New Game+/ranked.)
Defining the final boss has been a tough task since the beginning of the game. At first, I went for the easy route (mirror match like Mortal Kombat, but with fewer fatalities: 0).
This didn't work very well for various reasons (HP difference, daemons, overclocking, etc.).
For a while, we've been evaluating what to do with the final boss... until we found a solution.
The final boss was changed, and four processes were installed that will be in "Friends and Family" for a while, replacing the "mirrorMatch" process.
What does each one do? Well... go and try to destroy them; I don't want to spoil the surprise.
Executive summary requested by my boss (hehehe):
Out: Strict MirrorMatch
In: 4 possible final bosses, collect them all and destroy them.
Along with the new bosses comes the possibility of continuing a deck's meteoric rise.
You can play a new run by selecting a previous deck, creating a new generation.
You can improve your decks to perfection.
