v1.4.1 Changelog

General

  • Improved support for non-1080p monitors
  • Custom Hardcore Decks can now be saved
  • Adjusted the input options in the game launcher
  • Improved support for aspect ratios aside from 16:9
  • Added a debug system that will allow us to track AI issues better
  • Added the foundation for user-generated localizations (more on this in a future update)
  • Decreased AI timeout limit to 45 seconds (turn will automatically end if the AI gets frozen)

UI

  • Increased the size of Fallen slash FX
  • Traps have been relocated to the corners of the screen
  • Added Loading Screens when signing in or transitioning from the main menu to a match

Loading screens will be generated with a random image and a random tip. The tips should help remind players of key rules or suggest new cards/strategies, while the images are a nice way to see some of the artwork up close.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed a bug that displayed the incorrect turn number when playing against the Fallen
  • Fixed a bug that displayed the incorrect cost for the Pepper Spray item
  • Various miscellaneous fixes / optimizations

Known Issues


Depending on your Unit Twitching settings, you may experience some visual bugs when units search, attack, or die while twitching. This feature is still experimental and we’re working towards stabilizing it.

I hope to start rolling out updates a little faster than we have over the last several months, so please stay tuned for some cool new stuff soon!
