With Heroes of Loot 2 launching on Switch earlier this week, some people flocked to the discord channel and requested an option to be able to drop some of the loot from your inventory.
In rare cases it is possible to be carrying some items that you didn't need in previous dungeons, and they take up your precious inventory slots.. so let's make it possible to drop them!
So this update adds the little option to "drop" items from the inventory screen.
Improved Herocard droprate
This is a minor update that improves the drop-rate on hero cards. Herocards can be found in golden treasure chests, but the drop rate was pretty much :
- First drop in random level 4-9 - Second drop at least 5 rooms later, and maximum 10 rooms later.
It would skip special rooms like coin-rooms and arena-rooms, and the end result is that it could be very hard to encounter them ;)
New drop rate is:
- First drop in random level 2-6 - All subsequent drops are 4 levels between - ALWAYS.
So let's say first chest pops up in level 4, then it will be levels 4,8,12,16,20, etc.
One tip: these chests CAN be placed in secret/hidden rooms, AND also be smart about your level-skipping exits if you want to hunt for Herocards ;)
Good hunting!
OH, also want to tell you about the next Orangepixel game coming SOON:
A very tiny update for mankind, but a HUGE update for all PC gamers: Heroes of Loot 2 now has much improved gamepad support!
It's taken some time to get gamepad support up and running in the tools used to develop Orangepixel games, but I'm VERY happy to announce that all games are getting this update, and all games will play soooo much better with it. So connect your xbox, playstation, or other gamepad and start up the game :)
Also improved "default" screen resolution when playing in windowed mode. If you run into any bugs with this new build, let me know!
