[h3]Update #2 will be OUT of beta on [b]December 29th[/b]![/h3]
[i](Instructions on how to access the Beta Branch are at the bottom of this post)[/i]
This Beta includes ALL features and additions that will be rolled out in 1 weeks time. This public Beta allows us to test the update in a more controlled environment while we squash bugs, and test and polish everything we can.
[h3]The BIGGEST change in 1.3.0 is addition of a [b]new character[/b]: [u][b]BOSS[/b][/u][/h3]
A [b]highly-combustible[/b] criminal who uses [b]sticky bombs[/b] as her main method of attack! Starts a run with the “[i]Second Chance[/i]” item, another random bomb-related item, and explodes upon taking a hit. [i]Also comes with her own B-costume![/i]
[u]Boss must be unlocked first[/u]. But we are certain that even you 100%ers will have fun working towards that, as it encourages you to test and explore the other new content in the game!

We will explain the new features in greater detail when leaving Beta in 1 week.
But for now we can share update #2 also offers:
[list]
[*]5 new "subfloors"
[*]3 new level variants ([i]Flooded, Burning, and Dark[/i])
[*]16 new items
[*]6 new weapons
[*]4 new enemies
[/list]
Test it out for yourself, see if you can win a run with [b]Boss[/b], and seek out the other new additions that lay in wait for you to discover. If you find any bugs, [url=https://steamcommunity.com/app/1484720/discussions/0/3484123157237416337/]please do report them[/url] in the Steam discussions.
