Fire, ice, and everything nice. Lady Tallowmere has delivered 6 new shrines to her dungeon for you to discover.
Most rooms now have a 30% chance to contain a shrine, with a smaller chance that two shrines may appear. Shrines won't appear in boss rooms.
Activating a shrine will apply a buff to your hero and/or weapons for 60 seconds.
Shrine types: • Shrine of Power – Applies a double damage effect to your weapons. • Shrine of Swiftness – Increases your movement speed. • Shrine of Wealth – Grants extra coins from enemies. • Shrine of Regeneration – Grants you increased HP regeneration. • Shrine of Chilling – Gives your weapons an icy touch. • Shrine of Fire – Ignites your weapons with fire.
Fiery Ice Wands? Icy Katanas? Double Damage Rocket Launchers? The power can be yours – if you're lucky.

From the depths of Lady Tallowmere's dungeons comes a new breed of stumpy kamikaze creatures called Bloats.
Having consumed one too many purple stun potions from their fellow Ogres, Bloats are packed with paralysing toxins that explode upon death.
You're free to use your shield against their self-inflicted explosions. Other enemies in the dungeon aren't so lucky however, and will get stunned in a purple haze if they keep too close. Or if other monsters you want to stun are too far, you can always lure or push a Bloat into place before it explodes!
Bloat details: • Bloats do not attack. Rather, they jump towards you when they see you, and make a delightful chirping noise. • Once they're close enough, Bloats will begin their ritual of plunging a blade into a sweet spot in their belly, causing them to die instantly and explode. • Bloats also explode if their health reaches zero through other means. • Bloat explosions are close-range and can stun both hero and enemy. • You can block the explosion with your shield, negating the damage and stun, or use an Anti-stun Potion. • All enemies, excluding bosses, are stunnable. • After exploding, Bloat body parts will fly through the air carrying the paralysing toxin. These purple gibs may look dangerous, but the toxin on these body parts are too weak to affect the hero. Other monsters in the room aren't so lucky however, and will become stunned for a few seconds if a toxin-laden body part hits them. You can also bounce these body parts off of your shield to try and stun monsters from afar. • Other Bloats caught in a Bloat explosion will explode immediately in a chain reaction, regardless of health.
Other changes: • Added the Bloat Challenge and its Game Center leaderboard. Speak to Samuel in-game to start. • Added a pair of Bloats to the Double Trouble room. • Slightly increased the coin pick-up radius. • Demon statues now show a blue indicator when you have a soul group available to turn in. • Updated Anti-stun Potions to cater for Bloat explosions.
Fixes: • Fixed voice clips sometimes overlapping. • Fixed Fire Mage arms sometimes getting stuck in upward positions. • Fixed a frame stutter issue during the initial kidnapping scene. • Fixed an issue with the local high score board flashing during the You Have Died sequence. • Fixed an issue where Lady Tallowmere's flag could become undroppable.
326
• Feelers now have slightly less vision range, giving you more time to spot them before they spot you. • Feelers now aim for the front of your torso rather than the middle, making it more possible to block their tongues if they're above or below you. • Fixed an issue where feelers would sometimes about-face while their tongue was extended. • Reduced the amount of weird stiff-tongue angles that would happen when a feeler would flinch with tongue extended. • Removed the Apparition of Tallowmere from the Attack of the Zaeries room.
325.1
• Every room now has a limit of 1 Feeler maximum, with a 25% chance to increase its limit to 2 Feelers maximum, rolled on a per-room basis. (Note that the Double Trouble and Feeler Challenge rooms are excluded from these limits) • Ogres now only spot you if their currently-held bottle is visible on the screen. • Pinwheels can now hit Feeler tongues that are latched to your shield, causing the tongue to retract. • Slightly enlarged the Flamethrower's hitbox. • The Double Trouble room now places pairs of enemies beside each other. • When using a controller, actions can now be unassigned from the Edit Controls menu. • Fixed an issue where Grenades would sometimes fall to the ground instead of getting thrown. • Fixed Archers not firing after you used a waypoint. • Fixed Feeler tongue moving abruptly if the Feeler was flinching while latched to you or your shield. • Fixed items being removed from the Weapon Wheel if the wheel was closed during edit mode. • Fixed an issue where choosing to reposition the on-screen buttons while a controller was active would cause the screen to appear unresponsive.

• Added Challenge modes with new Game Center leaderboards. Speak to Samuel, Keeper of Challenges, for details. • Added new flying insects called Feelers. Keep your shield up to deflect their tongues. • When a saved game is loaded, you'll now be positioned beside the elevator. • Reduced the amount of scorch marks that are created to keep performance smooth. • Fixed empty menu categories not displaying correct text. • Fixed an issue where, if your shield was raised when using touch controls and you switched to controller mode, the shield would remain stuck in the raised position. • Fixed an issue where touching the double-axes or pause icon would also move your hero. • Fixed leaderboard scores not submitting if Punishments were active.
