Gameplay
As Cinnamon the Pumpkin (And Friends) you will be given sets of cards, which transport you to different hand crafted rooms full of enemies that you will have to beat all of to progress and reach harder and harder rooms. As you go through the runs you will find different types of weapons and gain different types of upgrades to make different loadouts and beat all of the bosses.
Each Weapon is able to be combined into each other, adding unique effects and adding an extra layer to all of your builds.
However, don't die, because doing so will send you straight back to the start.

Even though I want to step back from this project, and focus on other things. I can't leave it in a broken state. So here is what I have done in this patch: - I added a toggle to turn the lighting off, so that slower computers won't be as laggy - The game would force you into the bside character version while fishing, that no longer happens - Changed the description for the shotgun modifier - You can no longer dash outside the roulette room - You no longer crash when picking up an ammo crate right after resetting the room I hope you all are enjoying the game :) -BagelRead full article on Community Announcements (Bagel_)
