Version 3.7.9 is live

Son of a Witch

Action roguelike for 1-4 players with cute graphics and deep game mechanics. Combine dozens of different weapons, magic items, potions and spells with unique effects to beat 8 enemy factions and 28 bosses. Can you find the ancient goblin artifact at the end of the dungeon?

The new version brings mostly some balancing and game difficulty tweaks. Most significant is that bosses are now guaranteed to drop runestones. Looking at the complaints from players, the main issue was being able to get more powerful as you progress through levels. So far, this has mostly been done by breaking rocks to get runestones, but it seems that many players don't like the randomness this brings, esp. if you don't get the Squirrel pet nor the Miner Ring. Experienced players would simply break random rocks to try to get it, but you might be hours and hours in the game before you discover this mechanics. The yellow runestone was considered mostly useless by many players. The thing it that it was useful for non-archer characters who start with low archery range, which meant it was used for a secondary weapon and not much useful in most of the runs. I have changed it to increase the arrow speed instead. The upgrade is still tied to a bow, and you can see the exact upgrade effect when you pause the game if the bow is your main weapon. BTW, since the arrow speed is increased it also increases the range. Features: - bosses always drop at least one weapon damage upgrade - yellow runestones upgrade initial arrow flying speed for bows in regular game - heroes who start with a bomb, now start with two bombs in the regular game - Archer and Rogue characters are always unlocked in Casual/Party mode - Rogues start the game with the dagger in Casual/Party and PvP modes - Updated Polish and Serbian translations Update 3.8.0: - fixed boss drops: always drop one runestone, 50% chance to drop two - to balance out, reduced runestone drops inside rocks (by 1 per level, so if level would usually have 5 runestones inside rocks, it now has 4) - fixed occasional crash that would happen when a player wins an achievement This is just a warmup for 2019. Many more updates to come this year. Have fun playing!
