Multiple characters per class and the updated roadmap
It's time for our weekly update! This one adds (among other things) multiple characters per class support, a new type of prop in the maze (the first tileset): a column and many additions to the Hell tileset.
Aside from that, there are of course multiple fixes and tweaks. You can find the complete changelog below.
In other news, we now have two new (that we know of) unofficial fan managed communities for Russian and Polish speaking players. If you want to talk to like-minded souls in your native tongue please consider joining.
Of course, our Steam community is still here for you. If you haven't consider sharing your thoughts.
Cheers, and stay safe in the dungeons!
