Welcome to Alpha 3.7

Loot Shrine

We’re incredibly happy to finally deliver the long awaited Loot Shrine! You can finally donate your loot and deposit all of the gold you’ve been hoarding in exchange for awesome rewards like skill points, loot and bag slots!

This also includes the Loot Stash, which enables you to quickly and easily move items between characters or save your loot for later.

We’ll be refining and polishing the Loot Shrine experience in future updates (namely more rewards, visual polish, animations, sound effects, etc) but we think you’ll enjoy what we’ve got in game so far.

The Loot Shrine will unlock after you’ve placed 3 adventures on your map and you can see the Loot Shrine in action in our latest Developer Let’s Play video…

New Tutorial Adventure “Dig Site”

One of our current development goals is to refine the experience new players receive when starting the game for the first time. Our first improvement is a new tutorial level, designed to be played after “Beginnings” that introduces players to advanced features like dodging, blocking, jumping, keys, destructible items and switch logic.

For existing players, the next adventure you place on your map with the random adventure feature will be “Dig SIte”, while for new players it will be the second level that they access.

Here is a screenshot of “Dig Site”…
