v0.58a The Difficult Update
New Feature:
Expanded Difficulty Modes, We have enhanced the game by adding more effects to your Choice of Difficulty. All the Detail are Below!
You already were able to gain Starting Gold (found in your house) by choosing Normal or Easy modes.
This will offer increased challenge or a casual experience based on your Choice when playing a new game.
(Demo Players - an update has been pushed, keeping you up to date!)
Enemy Spawning:
At any given time you may be in range of up to 3 spawners when Exploring the adventure maps.
Difficulty now scales the amount of enemies, increasing in each chapter, as detailed below.
Awakened Mode: (special)
Every time you hit an Enemy your Awakened bar (yellow) charges up. When full you may activate this by pressing 4.
The Awakened Bar drains down over time, during the period you do not pay for Mana Casting (space bar).
When selecting Easy mode, Stamina is also free while you are in Awakened mode.
Hard Mode:
Hard mode gives no Starting money and boasts the highest amount of enemies in the game, scaling all the way to the end.
Enemies are also given Double Damage and Double HP, to offer the greatest Challenge to the Player.
The Chapter Level also raises Base Spawn Limits on top of these changes, as before.
Changes:
- Easy mode:
| Enemy Spawner Base Limit = 10
| Free Mana & Stamina in Awakened mode
| Starting Gold = 2000
- Normal Mode:
| Enemy Spawner Base Limit = 15
| Free Mana in Awakened mode
| Starting Gold = 1000
- Hard Mode:
| Enemy Spawner Base Limit = 20
| Free Mana in Awakened mode
| Starting Gold = Zero
| All Tier 1 Enemies = Double HP + Damage
Bonus XP option still available, unaffected by these changes.
Bugs Fixed:
* Scalp Counter now displays correct Scalp Goal in Bounty Menu.
NOTE: during Early Access we may ask you to delete your savegame to ensure smooth running of ANGLES.
Patches that cause savegame resets are unavoidable during this stage.
In order to benefit from recent additions and enhancements made, we recommend you delete your savedata this time.
Thanks for Playing!

V0.55b Multi-Hit System Added
We are excited to offer the first major enhancement to ANGLES since early Access Release. This change will affect gameplay and is subject to balance.
When Hitting an Enemy, Any Adjacent Enemies will also take damage.
The more Enemies there are in that small space, the more your damage is split across them.
This will apply to the Sword and Pike Weapon Slots.
The Damage will be displayed in The Enemy Health Bar.
Captains and Bosses are Immune to this "Splash Damage" effect.
Different Weapons in future classes may have larger or smaller AOE.
Thanks for Playing!
