NEW

- New skill: Dragon. Unlocked by evolving 3 skills in one run.

- New skill: Fate Cards. Unlocked by using 20 consumables.

- New skill: Constellation. Unlocked by reaching wave 45 in Endless.

- New skill: Spear Volley.

- New character: Cultist. Unlocked by winning a 4 Paths run.

- 4 Paths is back with new map art.

- Map Layout is now split into Tower Defense and Survivors.

- New "Skip Shop" toggle in the shop from wave 20 onward.

- The screen edge glows red when your health is low.

- Animated map decorations.

BALANCE

- Endless is harder: enemies spawn faster and get stronger each wave, more so on higher difficulties.

- Consumables now get stronger as waves go on.

- Arrow Rain now targets the biggest group of enemies.

- Landmine now throws ahead of incoming enemies.

- Hatchet Hurl evolution: ice axes now spiral out around you.

- Spear Volley evolution: golden spears fall from the sky.

- Split Nova: new Legendary card makes shards bounce off walls.

- Legendary upgrade cards now unlock after evolving a skill.

- Reworked the downsides of several items.

- Rebalanced several Legendary items.

FIXES

- Fixed several bugs reported on the forum.

- Fixed the chest button showing "Skip" instead of "Take All" when the chest gives a skill.

NOTE

- The new skills and character have no achievements yet. Steam limits each game to 100 achievements and we have reached that limit. We will add them if Steam raises the limit.
