Blessings & Curses - Coming to Beta Branch Soon

flannesteam_community_announcements

643d ago

New major update, "Blessings & Curses" is currently in closed beta testing. After a round of closed testing the update will be available for public beta testing soon. The main goal of this update is to offer more variety and replayability between different runs.

Major Update Content

New Blessings Mechanic

New Curse upgrades

Enemy overhaul

Runes reworked

Character upgrades reworked

Overhaul of existing upgrades

New Characters

Blessings

At certain early levels, players will be given a choice of 3 blessings to take. Blessings offer powerful and varied effects that range from powerful stat boosts to giving you a unique version of an upgrade. Blessings will give you reasons to adapt and try different builds according to the blessings you are given on each run. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42296647/c6ee229415d9200bd65b9d9f34a4688f02ab55df.png

Curses

This is a reworked version of the old "tomes" that dropped from bosses. Now when you pick up chests, you'll be offered curses, that offer power with heavy penalties. There are different rarities of curses, with common curses offering simple stat tradeoffs to rare curses that completely alter how your character plays. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42296647/7f96348f37e1ba76c7ce1dda669afdda6a0a1c80.png

Enemy overhaul

New enemies are being added to bring more interesting challenges! Existing boss fights are also reworked, as well as new bosses are being added. Each boss now has unique minions that spawn alongside them for more interesting fights. Normal enemies will not spawn during boss fights anymore to prevent too much clutter. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42296647/fa6a80715a0b897869a7051037e62a5d3defe0ea.gif

Runes reworked

One of the issues with the old rune system, is that the build you go for is often somewhat defined by the runes you pick before you start a run. This makes it very hard adapt your build on the fly during a run, which is one of the main goals of the new blessing mechanic. Runes have a reworked to be more generally useful. You will also no longer have to pick and choose as all purchased runes will be active in a run. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42296647/5432d33d15d047e4711ebf98ce9d0e93d57b6fb6.gif

Character Specializations

The old character specific upgrades have been reworked into character "specializations". Instead of getting character upgrades in random order from chests, you'll now be able to pick 1 of 3 "specializations" unique to each character (similar to the current gun evolution system). The specializations are designed to be more powerful and offer a choice of different ways to build your character. The goal of this is to remove frustrating randomness and offer more flexibility to adapt your build each run. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42296647/1caa2988947b30f260ee28141ae99ed413b554e6.png

Upgrade perk overhaul

Some of the existing upgrades, don't really contribute to interesting builds (like the magnetism upgrades) or are overpowered in almost every build (like the freeze upgrades). Many of these are either reworked, or replaced by new upgrades.

New Characters!

But if you didn't see it in my last update post, here is a sneak peak of the 2 new characters: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42296647/6bdb59184ef5de7f6484036fa70b1e9400c718a1.png More to come! There are more features and quality of life updates that will be added over the course of the beta. I'm really excited to share this new update with you guys. Join the Discord to keep up with all things related to 20 Minutes Till Dawn. Thank you so much for your patience, and continued support. Best Wishes, Flanne

More Info About What's Coming in the Next Patch

flannesteam_community_announcements

871d ago

Hey everyone! The upcoming patch is very substantial and taking a while to finish so I just wanted to give another quick update on what is to come.

New Characters

Here's a small teaser for some of the upcoming new characters! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42296647/6bdb59184ef5de7f6484036fa70b1e9400c718a1.png

New Ways to Power Up Your Runs

I'm introducing some new systems that'll add more build variety to the game. A quick sneak peek: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42296647/623ee1484a5b6bd16ab9d664a96334962a40a9dc.png

Major Upgrade Perk Overhaul

I mentioned this in a previous post, but almost all upgrade trees are getting some perks reworked as well as a ton of new upgrade perks are being added. Here's the revolver with some of the new upgrades in action: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42296647/2816c2b7826c9b191ed81bd2604f142eaf7bbc30.gif

Endless Mode Rework

Some people were concerned from my last news post, when I announced that endless mode is getting removed. So I wanted to clarify that endless will not be a separate mode anymore, and instead, at the end of each won run, you'll have the option to "loop". Starting a new loop, you keep all of your upgrades, and the pool of available upgrades is replaced with a completely different and new set of special upgrades that can be stacked endlessly.

Performance Improvements

I'm rewriting a significant portion of the game's code-base to utilize Unity's DOTS (Data-Oriented Technology Stack), which will drastically improve the game's performance. It should make the game run smooth and lag-free even on low end PCs or the Steam Deck. This is a substantial time investment, and is a major reason why the new patch is taking a while. There's currently no ETA on the release date for the next patch. Thanks for waiting patiently, and I hope you all enjoy playing the game in the mean time! By the way, if you are a fan of action roguelike game, you can follow and wishlist my publisher's upcoming title: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2507980/MetaGhost_The_Breaking_Show/

V0.9.0 - New Character Dasher + Summoning Rework

flannesteam_community_announcements

1320d ago

New Character: Dasher!

Transform into a deer and stomp through hordes of enemies! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42296647/aee50dae558cac74170a17ff0869fca6d3d39c59.gif

Summoning Rework

New summoning perks have been added, and old summoning perks have been changed to, hopefully, provide greater build variability.

Ghost Friend

Ghost Friend’s attacks now are much faster and can trigger on-hit effects, making it a valuable companion for Burn/Freeze/Lightning builds . (Yes, I know it was bugged for a few patches and triggered on-hit effects anyways, but now the bug is a feature!) {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42296647/ed37f6fff2f79aa978a3428a9e6dbd09e53babde.gif

Magic Scythe

Magic Daggers were removed, and now the whole upgrade tree is focused on powering up the Magic Scythe! Its damage increases based on your bullet damage and move speed. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42296647/7823da73c45d85fac1391f5161dc2c9b02fd3097.gif

(NEW) Magic Spear

Stab through monsters with a set of magic spear summons! They deal more damage based on your max HP, and are a good fit for tankier builds. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42296647/3c75970adfec25b34a938db96e7e49a657b5814e.gif

(NEW) Trainer + Frenzy

The Trainer and Frenzy upgrade trees focuses on summon damage and summon attack speed, respectively. These upgrades perks are great for builds that focus on having summons do most of the damage.

Other Changes

Character & Gun Menu Rework

With the increasing amount of characters and guns added to the game, the character and gun selection menu was getting crammed. This menu has been slightly reworked for better readability. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42296647/437940972448bb82e48d414f835eee67659c1e5f.jpg

Soul Hearts

Some new upgrades focus on giving players a new type of HP, giving some more variety to defensive options.

Happy Holidays!

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!
