Santa said you had all been good this year, so he decided to deliver the UnderMine update one day early! We poured a lot of hard work into this one and we hope you enjoy it. Kick back, put on a good cup of coffee, and enjoy the update. You deserve it! [h2]Features:[/h2] [h3]The Contested Bog[/h3] A gate can now be found at the edge of the Shimmering Caverns. It is guarded by two familiar creatures, but they will only allow access when certain conditions are met. Beware! Even if you discover the conditions for entry, a huge challenge awaits. The Contested Bog is home to UnderMine’s most dangerous creatures. [h3]Plunder King[/h3] Deep in the Contested Bog, the Plunder King hoards a pile of treasure in his trove. He has become corrupted by his greed, and the corruption spreads throughout the area. Defeat the Plunder King and claim his crown as your own. [h3]Tus, Wandering Minstrel [/h3] Tus is a wandering bard that spreads mello vibes wherever he goes. Tip Tus some gold for his efforts. If he deems your tip generous enough you may receive a reward. [h3]Seed Input[/h3] You can now check your randomizer seed from the main menu in the Hub. You’ll also be able to generate a new seed, or input one of your own. You can now play the same randomized dungeon layouts as other players using this menu. This feature can be used for Othermine as well by entering a seed after donning the crown, before entering the portal. [h3]Boss Tracker[/h3] Once a summoning stone has been lifted, a boss tracker will appear on the pause menu. This tracker will show the status of each boss. [h3]Poison as an Official Element[/h3] Poison has been added as an official element. Now items that interact with elemental damage will also interact with poison. For example, Gordon’s Tunic will reduce poison damage. Certain things will cover the ground in poison. If food touches this it will become poisoned itself, with adverse effects! [h3]Blighted Barb[/h3] Poisoned rocks will appear in the UnderMine. Destroying these rocks will give the peasant a temporary poison buff similar to Crippling Poison. [h3]Momentary Peril[/h3] You may find a mysterious orb in a start room. Interacting with this orb will give you a temporary curse called Momentary Peril. It sets your health to 1, and gives you a certain number of rooms to clear. If you can clear the rooms the curse will be removed and you’ll be rewarded for your efforts. [h3]Other Secrets[/h3] Many other secrets await in the Royals update, but we didn’t want to spoil them. Search every corner of the game to find them.

[*] Tightened up when and where the AI navigation mesh is rebuilt to prevent certain enemies from spawning or teleporting into inaccessible areas [*] Improved the logic that tracks the “Drop count” of an item for display in the Journal [*] Added in some more protection around bad data from hand-edited save files could cause crashes on startup. [*] Fixed an issue that would cause secret rooms connected to a hidden room (these are referred to as “secluded” rooms) to wind up on the wrong subfloor during floor layout regeneration and be visible on the minimap at the wrong time [*] Fixed a long-standing issue with the maximized minimap that would make it possible to see secret walls to the east [*] Thickened up the ground hitbox to prevent fast-falling entities from falling right through [*] (Linux) Fixed some audio driver incompatibility issues that would cause the game to hang on a black screen when starting up [*] (Linux) Fixed some Z-testing flags in our shaders that would cause certain graphics drivers to get thoroughly confused when rendering UI elements [/list] [h2]Balance Changes[/h2] [list] [*] Gordon’s Tunic now reduces poison damage as well [*] Spinner traps now scale their damage based on the zone they are found in [*] Arrow traps now scale their damage based on the zone they are found in [*] Transmute machines in “gambling rooms” no longer add health to their cost when used [*] Slightly increased rat health in OM [*] Gremlins have had their AI tweaked and are now much more aggressive [*] Capture Sphere now adds 5 damage per enemy killed instead of 10 [*] Galoshes and Helios boots now guard against poison on the ground [*] Added more fury to the Fury Potion [*] Mjolnir now creates its AOE at the target of the thrown pickaxe.
