Reki here. I've been setting booby traps all over my house for the holiday season, but finished that in time to release an update here. It's been a while, but don't think for a second that I'm not working on the game, even if updates are no longer weekly. That decision was purely so I could deliver fatter updates like this one, that complete a feature.

Getting into it, the meat of this update is the completed Curse Card system. They are now called Calamity Cards, with each having a unique challenge to complete. Once that challenge is complete, you'll be able to toggle them on, activating a difficulty modifier and granting you a boost to your luck level.

Other than that… invasive species have been tweaked to make for a better late-game experience, there's a new monster heart, a few new random events, various polishing tweaks. The soundtrack is now in stereo, so the file size will be a lot bigger.

Please enjoy the new challenges. Plenty more content and balance to come before the game's end.
