Special Holiday stuff
[h2]--Characters--[/h2]
Terra: Starting Kit
Mine -> Poison Tails
[h2]--Quality of Life--[/h2]
Added a luck symbol flash on Bunny death
Weapon info can now be viewed on the Deck Screen
Fixed previews for many spells
Assists no longer block movement
Certain dark icons brightened (Monsoon and world icons)
Updated Removal tooltip to reflect that it can remove artifacts and pacts too
Made Serif's dialogue hint more towards not being a true ending after the Gate
Worlds where bosses have been killed will now show up as red in the map and have a skull
Viewable map during the rewards screen
[h2]--Settings--[/h2]
Hold to Skip option
Hold to Move option
Stop Music on Pause Menu
Readability Mode - increases size of card descriptions and hides flavor text
Angel Mode ("easy" mode) - reduces damage taken and enemy/boss speed by a %, increasing by 2% every time you die (max 50%). All achievements can still be obtained this way. Character has a halo while this is on. (Removed the halo you get from saving hostages). It's separated into two sliders and can be toggled on and off at any time.
Hopefully this optional accessibility mode allows more people to enjoy the game without removing all the challenge for it. I liked the idea of making the game slightly easier, the more the player dies, so that they are always making progress!
[h2]--Systems--[/h2]
Profile/Save slots system, Brand and Icon are based on last chosen
Hell Passes are now individually selectable! (The hell pass 14 achievement can be completed with only hell pass 14 active)
[h2]--Bug Fixes--[/h2]
Shield will properly search in the Library
Hell passes can no longer be removed after continuing a run lol
[h2]--Modding--[/h2]
Mod installation speed increased 700% yay!
Extra taunt animation slots for taunt2 - taunt5 (for your custom animations)
Extra triggers, effects, checks, etc.
Auto load mods on startup Checkbox
Min and Max appended to amount values i.e. "10+CurrentCardtridges*10|20/200"
[h3]--Sandbox--[/h3]
Added an xml file "TestZone.xml" for choosing how you want to set up your test environment.
It boots directly into the scene you choose, along with the console and cheat menu being enabled! You can change the enemies and other world variables in Zones.xml. There is also a "developer" sandbox (with the game in debug mode) on the Steam beta branch!
Example path for XML files: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\One Step From Eden\OSFE_Data\StreamingAssets\Data"
There's more info at the bottom of TestZone.xml

[h2]--Ending Note--[/h2]
Most of these features came directly from you, the community and I'm happy to finally add them to the game! Thank you for sticking around and coming up with these great ideas!
After the last patch in April, I realized I was pretty burnt out and needed a break from OSFE. I know the extra settings took a while to come out, so I'm sorry for the wait. I still love the game and really enjoy working on it.
What's next?
I've attempted adding online multiplayer but I've decided it will require making a whole other standalone game. I may experiment with that in the future. In the meantime I'm always working on something!

Happy Holidays~
