Update 1.1

Balance Adjustments

The Tribute

  • Rivers you have opened now stay open through the tribute — it no longer closes everything but the Styx
  • and now take effect the moment you buy them, not at the next tribute
  • Shadows from the tribute: divisor 150 → 50 (about 1.7x more shadows per tribute)
  • The Halls of Hades stay open after the tribute is paid, so the shadows are spent there and then
  • The button on the rail now opens the Halls whenever there is something to do there, not only when the tribute can be paid

Relics of Hades

  • Cost growth per level 2.0 → 1.5 for every relic (Ferryman's Cache 1.8 → 1.5)
  • +25% per level, 5 levels → +40% per level, 8 levels
  • Every relic now shows its full price ladder in shadows, with the levels already bought greyed out
  • Every relic now shows what it gives at its current level, and what the next level would give
  • Added a line for what the tribute takes and what it leaves, plus a forecast of the next crossing's start
  • Added a confirmation for your first tribute

Charon

  • no cap → caps at 20 steps (2,000 souls in one crossing)

The Rivers

  • pay per soul x2.5 → x1.9
  • pay per soul x5.0 → x3.0
  • pay per soul x12.0 → x4.6
  • pay per soul x25.0 → x7.3
  • The thresholds that open the rivers are unchanged

The Ransom

  • The ransom is now paid from what Death has counted, not from the purse: 500,000 earned in this cycle. The tribute no longer resets that progress
  • A new cycle earns the price again from nothing

Bugfixes

  • Fixed the issue where a joke from the dead, a farewell or a word from Death could be buried by a river's conversation and lost — the voices now take turns, and whoever was interrupted speaks again from the start
  • Fixed the issue where a passenger's request opened on top of a conversation that was still fading out
  • Fixed the issue where the price plate on the rail showed a total that could not pay the ransom
  • Fixed the issue where the Halls of Hades closed the moment the tribute was paid
  • Fixed the issue where relics that grant a head start did nothing until the next tribute
  • Fixed the issue where saves from earlier versions were discarded instead of carried over — 1.0 saves keep their progress, and what you held in the purse now counts as what Death has counted towards the ransom
  • Fixed multiple layout issues in the Halls of Hades, including clipped edges and a price ladder too dim to read
