Game update

27.07.2026 Hotfix 1

Ascension Trail · published 27 Jul 2026, 19:55 UTC

Fixes

  • Fixed portal/gate spamming that could advance two stages at once - double-counting your progress and causing bosses to spawn incorrectly or be replaced by dungeon/trader floors (mostly affected co-op).
  • Fixed a boss occasionally spawning outside the level if the stage changed mid-transition.
  • Delete Save now wipes everything - it previously left your equipped armor and Continue run behind. It now fully resets and returns you to a clean main menu.

New

  • The camp Spirit now explains Light Shards - that you earn them by passing through portals, and can sacrifice them at the campfire to extend how long you can stay in a run.

Changes

  • Removed the achievement list from the death screen - achievements now live on the dedicated Achievements page.

Parry and riposte, blink between enemies inside a ring, mark a duel target, raise the dead, string monsters up as puppets, plant a turret, vanish into smoke, dump your whole mana pool into one nova. · S…Major update16 Aug 2026Update 1.2 - The GuardiansNEW: Floor Guardians Three floors now end in a miniboss lair instead of a regular final room. Each guardian drops a legendary chest on defeat. Big Della - Stage 8 (NEW) · The lights go out. She watches you from the dark — glowing softly, and only hurtable while she pulses white . · Soak her with too much damage at once and she vanishes, reappearing across the room with a fresh wave of kamikaze…
