Greetings Downfall players! Today we are releasing a long-in-development update to the Hexaghost character, led by contributor Mwalls! This update focuses on reworking our favorite hexagonal hero's Afterlife/Ethereal subthemes and cards.

This update also brings some changes to the final boss of Downfall, aiming to improve consistency, particularly in high ascension play. The Collector is also no longer marked as "beta", though this update does not include any changes. There have been minor updates since the beta launch, and we feel Collector's in an acceptable place.

There are a number of other updates in the patch as well, to some of the Act bosses, some Slime Boss and Guardian tuning, and a handful of other changes. You can find the full patch notes below!

There is also a Tales & Tactics one-time popup notification in this update, which will never appear again on the same save file once closed.

Enjoy, and let us know your feedback and thoughts in Discord!

Tales & Tactics has fully released on Steam, now out of Early Access! This will be the last time I post an announcement here about T&T specifically - thanks for putting up with our occasional self-advertising over the last year.

We're launching with a 30% discount, which will be the most discounted the game will be likely for quite awhile, so grab it now while the deal is up! And if you do, we very much appreciate everyone who does to leave a Steam review, no matter how small. One word is enough. It helps boost our presence in the Steam algorithm more than almost any other form of advertising. Thank you to all of our players!

And, not to make this fully about T&T - Contributor Mwalls has been working for almost (over?) a year on a Hexaghost update, with the help of many other community members, and it is now available in the Workshop Beta! You can check out the patch notes for that update here:

And can test it out for yourself in Steam by switching to the Experimental branch! We will have an updated Workshop beta link soon.

Thanks all!
