We've just released the largest update yet to the game, coinciding with the launch of the Dark World Expansion DLC! There's a ton of improvements and fixes here. In fact there's so much to list that I couldn't even fit it all in this post! Check out this forum thread for the full changelog.

Thanks for playing! :)

• Added more Team Deathmatch levels to the existing Versus towers. Every tower now has 6 Team levels. Most are modified versions of free-for-all maps, but Sunken City got a brand new level which is also playable in other modes
• Added the “Session Stats” page to the Archives, which shows stats from the current play session and resets when the game is closed

Balance:

• Merged FFA and 1v1 Tournament Rules into one ruleset simply called Tournament Rules. This ruleset contains only No Autobalance and Symmetrical Treasure
• Slowed down the final “push” of the miasma as it closes in to encourage more kills before it consumes all the archers, and to make center-stage a more advantageous position
• Sudden Death variant now starts with miasma 1 second into the match instead of 5 seconds
• Rebalanced a lot of Versus arenas in the original levelsets
• Jumping on a teammate’s head now shares arrows the same as bumping into them from the side
• You can now hold the dodge button to extend your dodge time by 5 frames. This is known as “dodge stalling”
• You can now catch arrows when you have a shield, but only if the arrow is not in a dangerous state (ie it would not hurt you anyways)
• Arrows are no longer destroyed when crushed by moving solids
• Arrow inventories are now visible during the round intro
• Treasure changes:
• Decreased the chance of no treasure spawning
• The chance of getting special arrows out of a treasure chest is now normalized. In most towers, there is a 60% chance each chest has a special arrow pickup, chosen from the possible types for that level
• No more than one of each orb pickup can spawn per level now. If the Chaos Orb spawns, no other orbs will spawn
• The amount of each upgrade powerup (Wings, Looking Glass, Speed Boots) that can spawn per round is now capped by the amount of archers
• Added a particle effect for hyper jumping to make it more readable
• Archers will now slip off ledges while ducking, if they’re on the ledge by 3 or less pixels. Slipping starts 4 frames after you start ducking
• You can now shoot the falling orbs in Twilight Spire to destroy them as they fall
• Max Treasure variant now caps the amount of chests spawned per level to the amount of players + 2
• Return as Ghosts variant improvements:
• The delay from the last kill to the end of the round is doubled when there are ghosts alive
• Ghosts can no longer kill for 30 frames after they finish spawning
• Players can now control their ghost a bit during the spawn animation
• The shoot button now triggers the ghost’s dash attack (was previously just the dodge button)
• Ghosts can now open treasure chests. Chests will always spawn bomb traps when opened this way
• Added some controller rumble cues to ghosts to remind players they’ve respawned
• Ghosts are now drawn above other gameplay elements so they’re easier to spot
• Electric shocks now destroy brambles
• You can now use dodge slides to pick up hats
• Spinning spikeballs now pick a random spin direction when the level starts

Quest Mode Changes:

• Players are now revived at their corpses, like in the new Dark World co-op mode
• Level completion time is now tracked on Hardcore mode
• Removed the old score system
• The ‘Level Complete’ screen now awards the crown to the player who performs better (based on kills, deaths, and combo). That player wears the crown in the next level

• Ghost enemies can no longer hurt you while they’re stunned
• Added super jump pads to Twilight Spire
• Cultist enemies can now hop up one-tile-high ledges
