NEW UPDATE FEATURES: -New map: CaveCave features a new mechanic called the "HERO SWORD". After a hero has finished all their tasks, they are able grab a weapon from the center "Shrine" and can use it willingly like a villain can.

The sword is also NOT cleared from the hero between rounds, as villain weapons are.- Weapon racks no longer get reset between rounds.- Thief doors are no longer random, instead ALL of them are ALWAYS active.- 2 new skins, for BARD and KNIGHT.

Holiday Weekend Update
Happy Holidays! First off, I would like to thank the community for a 94% positive rating on Steam! I am so happy with the reception of the game, and I hope we can just continue to make it better and better Speaking of which . . . With this update, I'm adding TWO EXCLUSIVE HOLLIDAY SKINS that can ONLY be unlocked during the holiday season! Jester Elf Mage Santa Both are easily unlocked by completing a new task available on both maps. (easy!) Speaking of tasks, some tasks have been lengthened as well as moved. A clear theme is that there are a little too many task wins, so there are changes in this update that will hopefully ease a bit of that for now, as I work on more structural changes coming in the future that are sure to spice things up.
