  THE SCHRISM UPDATE HAS ARRIVED!

  The planet continues to crumble beneath the weight of enveloping darkness. The Schrism erupts and tears yet another hole in the sky. The atmosphere drips into space like the tears of a starving infant. Agonizing fear cripples the populace as the ozone melts away. This is the end. The horror has only begun to dig it’s filthy, wretched claws into skin and bone. The Hollow Ones rise again stronger than before, pushing our hero harder than ever. A couple new monsters crawled forth from the schism in the void, unleashing terrible new pain on the unsuspecting Scrungeoneer. As time and space tore asunder yet again, new relics were sprinkled beneath the surface, apparently one of which summons a stench filled puppy. Were blades too up close and personal for you? What about swords imbued with flame? Or daggers dripping with poison? Or bows that transcend this mortal realm by piercing through the flesh of as many enemies as it can? The time has come to trudge deeper than ever before and put an end to the Schrism once and for all. This will not be easy, Scrungeoneers. Take up arms, fight back. TL;DR THE SCHRISM UPDATE IS HERE: - New relics and weapons! - New enemies! - Hard mode bosses beyond the endgame. - New final boss fight! - Various bug fixes. - A new dungeon floor effect. - A new trap. - I love you.

  Scrungeon Update 1.2!!

  Patch 1.2 Notes Chaos and malice brewed deep within the Scrungeon. Time and space collapsed as the populace averted their gaze. For too long now, the fickle plane that the malignant structure took purchase upon sat dormant, as the colors that light produced would fade away to nothingness. Beyond it’s fading existence from the mortal coil, so too did portals erupt from the floor... and at times the void and it’s unwavering attempt to thwart the Scrungeoneers would prevail. These steps into the depths of madness would be unreachable by the laws of our physical realm. Shrill laughter, tauntingly echoed throughout the Scrungeon, as the Hollow Ones could rest another century. But fear not, my faithful Scrungeon explorers! As the omnipotent being that I am, I, like many, make mistakes. Thankfully, though, we may all dust off the remnants of our failures and take up the saddle to try yet again. Fort Unity has become my realm of solitude as of late, not resting until the void could be pushed back even more, crushing the evil plans of the forgotten lords once and for all. To combat the seemingly illogical entrance and exit of the Scrungeon from our dimension, I’ve opened safe passage to what I believe is a haven amongst the spelunking. I call it “The Inbetween.” This small plane exists only for a moment in time when all seems lost, caressing your wounds and grasping what material possessions you may have gathered on your quest. Abuse of this privilege may have dire consequences, so proceed with caution. The very fact that this has been opened to such as yourselves is almost beyond my powers. Take caution, but do not fear. To avert thy eyes is no longer punishable by an unavoidable death. As you were, Scrungeoneers. - C TL;DR - Player progress is saved when game is suspended / closed. - Controller updates for various UI tweaks. (UI Controller Support) - A quit game button has been added to the status screen. - Various minor bug fixes. Vague, yes, but accurate. - A new song ad...
