Based on your feedback and our internal testing, we've rolled out a batch of quality of life improvements and new features.
This update is also coming to the demo version.
Features and changes
- A randomize button has been added to the character creator, speeding up character creation for those who don't want to go through all the options separately.
- The End Turn button now pulses when no enemies remain and none will spawn this turn.
- Card artwork now grays out when the card is unplayable (insufficient stamina, etc).
- Icons under units now show a flashing animation when their effect is triggered
- Backstabber damage values now update live based on their position relative to the player.
- You can now filter and sort your deck during battle and at the Crossroads.
- The Crossroads now shows run progress, including total length, current position, and upcoming elite and boss fights.
Fixes
- Fixed quest icons not disappearing from inventory after quest abandonment
- Fixed Thorns coming from Heavy Armor benefit not being previewed on the player
