Three patches in one post. Zone Sweeper stopped being a menu of difficulty modes and became one endless world you walk.
Standard / Hard / Expert / Hell are retired. One base mode, Normal, that never ends — difficulty climbs ×1.225 per map with no ceiling.
96×40 maps rolled fresh every run, across ten biomes: Abyssal Moor, Obsidian Emberfield, Bone Ossuary, Sunken Depths, Crystal Vein, Fungal Bloom, Void Terrace, Iron Foundry, Frozen Abyss, Crimson Moor.
Zone tiles are gone. Monsters stand in the field — walk up to one and the fight resolves where you stand. No scene change, no loading.
Loot spills at the corpse and coins collect themselves as you walk over them.
Every realm is cut into ten Reaches, each with its own theme, roster and layout — gatehouses, a spine, arenas and a landmark court.
A Warden waits at the end of every Reach. One kill per run, and it pays BP.
Levels come rung by rung instead of in bands, authored per realm so the climb steepens as you go deeper.
Monsters roam and hunt, and none of them outrun you. Elites and bosses stay dead for the whole run.
Milestone Compass — a needle cycling Best Prey → Unbeaten → Off. It navigates: routes through the realm instead of pointing through a wall.
Monsters carry an outlook colour graded against your build, and the best exp-per-BP ground in the realm is crowned.
Field Chart — a fog map of everywhere you have walked, with a hero-centred minimap that zooms from 36 to 144 tiles.
Waypoints at the town plaza, mid-route and boss pads, plus a Town Portal you can cast anywhere.
Caches — crates, urns, veins, coffers and hoards hidden across every realm, once per run each.
Arrival banners with their own fanfare when you enter a theme, realm or Reach.
Footfalls that read the ground: earth, stone, water and wood each leave their own mark.
Walk-up Blacksmith, Artisan and Shelter Keeper at the Anchor, each on a 2-hour cooldown.
Monster Ledger — progress is tracked by unique monsters met, not zones cleared. Milestones, quests and the boss ladder all sit on it.
Skill points come from your best level alone — one rung per power of ten from Lv 100, +3 to +20 as you go deeper, no ceiling, granted the moment you cross. Boss, Tower and Quest points are gone.
Best level ceiling raised to 1e100000.
Every monster has its own artwork, stat profile and signature drops. Gear, EXP, gold and Charm level all follow the monster's real level.
Field gold rolls one of nine payout bands. Bought BP now fills to 1000.
The underleveled damage absorb (5–95%) is gone. Your damage is your damage.
Defense caps at 50% — no build can shrink a swing below half.
Turn 40 surge — ATK is flat until turn 40, then ×10 per decade for both fighters, so stalled fights settle.
Daily Check — a 31-day board that starts on your first check and waits instead of advancing when you skip.
Title screen rebuilt as a console bar with an animated scene behind each tab; the canvas fills the window and the field runs full-bleed under a floating HUD.
Sign in with Apple uses Apple's native button. The Steam demo and the itch.io build are retired.
Hundreds of fixes — purchase wedges, save-corrupting boot checks, camera clipping, reviving elites, duplicate banners and more.
Skill builds are rebased once: your old build is cleared and the whole new ladder total comes back as unspent points.
Runs in progress are reset by the new realm layouts.
