Update 1.5.21: Aim Assist, customized loadouts & more +Thank you for 💯 reviews
2026-08-23Greetings adventurers! Here are some of the enhancements we've been working on. New Upgrade: Lock-in starting equipment You can find this in the character upgrades section of the hub (you will need to have 12 equipment items unlocked). It lets you lock in any starting item in exchange for 1 token per run. In addition to pre-existing upgrades such as selecting a background & starting rune, this allows for much more loadout customization. Aim Assist We've added an aim assist system to gamepad controls to make shooting/casting/throwing/spear stabbing etc. easier. It targets the nearest opponent in the cardinal direction you're facing, without compromising your ability to hit traps or contraptions accurately. You can change the intensity in Options->Controls->Gamepad (Low by default) Note: Aiming with the right stick also overrides this behavior. Lock On Aiming Adjustments 𖦏

The other mechanic, where you can lock onto a specific target by flicking the right stick in their direction, is still present. However, it is now subdued when the target is out of range, and has smarter targeting. 🎵 New music and sound effects • Added several new sound effects to different aspects of the game. • Added a new music track that plays in certain arenas.
