a new patch is online!

Minor patch 1.2.3
Hey guys,
a new minor patch is online!
First, we decided to switch the weekly reset of the leaderboard to a monthly reset. This makes the ranking less ephemeral and more rewarding. It is also more realistic in order to have a competitivity since we are a small community ;)
The enemies now start roaming if a too great number is following a single player. This avoids having a herd of units following the player and blocking each other. Also, this creates some ambush potentials when the player wonders around the map, or runs for too long.
Here is the detailed patch note.
New
Enemies start roaming when too many are following the same player
When using queued actions (shift) a small flag spawns on the targeted position
Tweak
Added shortcut to learn new skills (ctrl + 1 2 3 4)
Switched weekly leaderboard to monthly
Prevent small freezes during game loading
Add difficulty in player match history
Add Steam Profile button in player's profile
Until the next update!
Minor patch 1.2.2
Hey guys,

Also, we made a prettier and plainer game creation menu now containing details about the different modes and difficulties.
Tweaks
Reworked game creation menu
Added last week leaderboard
Reduced hero health on higher levels
Reduced Korhus spawn amount on wave 8
Fixes
Clamp camera zoom speed to avoid strange behavior on highly sensibles configurations
Fix lich totems emitting FX after despawn
Fix lich buff FX offset on enemies
Until next time!
Minor patch 1.2.1
Hey guys,

Major patch 1.2.0 is live!
Hey guys,
This is a big patch and it's finally live! We apologize for the wait.
Let me summarize for you the most notable new features.
A new miniboss: the Lich
We worked on a new unit to spice the gameplay up a bit. When you expect it the least, the lich will appear and freeze your mines and towers! With a brand new model and animations, we hope to make the game feel fresh with some icy actions!
The Endless (Ranked) mode
Following the advice of our playerbase, we implemented a new mode which has two important aspects Heroes of Delum was missing: replayability and competitivity.
The goal of the Endless mode is to survive as long as possible. There is no end (as the name states) and the different types of enemies will come in a different order than in the classic mode.
The Endless Ranked mode lets all players experience the same world for a whole week. Every sunday midnight UTC, the winner will be decided, the leaderboard will be reset and a new seed will be generated to create a new world for everyone. A new world each week means a new meta to study, based on the map and the order of the different waves!
Will you make it to the top?
In-game market
Too much wood? Not enough gold? Or is your teammate not having a good day?
All of that is no longer a problem with the new market feature we created!
With the in-game interface, use the market tab to trade gold with wood and vis-versa. You can also send resources to your teammates at any time!
Reworked the menus
Because of the new modes, we had to adapt the menus. The lobby has been reworked, allowing the host to change server parameters and kick players if necessary.
Player profiles are now available, including different stats and a match history!
We're very excited about this update, tell us what you think!

Hello everyone!
Since the launch of Heroes of Delum, we have been working intensively to apply some of the great feedback that we received from you guys.
Along with a lot of fixes and balancing/tweaks, the major changes of this version include:

Zoom feature
It is now possible to zoom in and out using the scroll wheel!
