Holidays are around the corner, but horrors never rest. We can’t blame them, as we’ve been working hard on [b]Cataclismo’s Update 4, our biggest update thus far[/b]. Alongside the patch, we’ve put together [url=https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1422440/view/518574472406499355?l]a beta branch for the new Endless mode[/url], focusing on maximizing its replayability and variety. Sounds like fun? Read more about the beta and how to access it right here. With all that being said, here’s what version 0.22 includes: [h2]Main features[/h2] [list] [*] [b]Custom endless maps[/b]. You can now customize your endless maps and see a preview of their layout. In the menu, you’ll be able to modify almost every aspect, including the amount of resources and enemies. Maps can also be fully randomized, and you can even play some campaign and skirmish levels in Endless mode!

Easily rebuild everything horrors break each night instead of reconstructing it piece by piece. Definitely among your most requested features!

The panel is also expandable so you can see more blueprints at the same time.
