Patch notes are imported from steam. There may be errors. This mostly exists so I can stay on top of them to update the features in our tags and scoring categories (which I do manually), but since many of you liked the idea of staying up to date with all the games in one place I'm working on making this data automated (right now I manually hit it every couple days) with better info and linking in with the game views.

There will be more data and proper atribution here (original author, steam link, original post date, etc) real soon, I promise. This is just like a technical test to see if they're coming in ok at all.

Horde Hunters » v. 0.5.5

Hello. After all the general improvements we’re back on track with more content updates, starting with a new name in the roster!

New character

Introducing Vinnan, a thief class character. Armed with a poison bomb and the ability to vanish and steal coins from enemies.

Precise abilities

You can now make precise ability moves with Leap Slam and Dash up to the maximum range (currently mouse only!). This has been another much requested feature.

Custom seeds

Challenge/Endless maps used to always have the same map layout because of a fixed seed. This has now been removed in favor of runs being less boring. Custom seeds are not gone however but extended in the following ways; You can choose to use the same seed when finishing a run by clicking the new seed icon found on the end screen. You can also choose to play the same seed someone else has played on the leaderboard (when available since this data hasn’t been collected before). You can reset the seed on the summary screen by once again clicking on the seed icon.
