Floors
Eternower now has two floors:
- First Floor:
- 15 levels
- Dilemmas each level
- Enemy features are only changed through dilemmas
- Completion of the 15th one yields Victory
First floor focuses on your ability to adapt to the rapidly increasing difficulty through dilemmas.
Second floor focuses on your ability to create a maze.
Armor
A new dilemma now allows increasing the armor of enemies. Armor reduces incoming enemy damage. For example, to kill an enemy with 1 health and 1 armor in one shot, you need to do 2 damage once or 1.2 damage 5 times.
Other
Most dilemmas now show the direct value change from the previous one.
