Hello spellcasters!

I'm super excited to announce a new major update!

v1.74.4 brings multiple major features that have been in the works for a long time.

Full changelog below:

•   Major Feature: The Warden — New playable wizard type with unique mechanics: spells randomize each round within their category, with a rune to lock spell slots

•  New Spell Set: Burn Spells (Burn, Fireball, Flammable, Flamethrower, Stoke (1 & 2), Wildfire (1 & 2), Meteor 2)

  •   Note: Burn status effect is impacted by liquid in obvious ways

  •   Fireball — Supports arrow modifiers like Pierce and Bounce

•  Major Feature: Sandbox Mode — New sandbox game mode that gives players access to admin commands

•  Major Feature: Custom Game Mode — New difficulty system with customizable rules

•  Liquid pools apply status effects as follows:

  •     Water: 20 damage, no effect

  •     Lava: 30 damage, burn effect

  •     Blood: 40 damage, blood curse

  •     Ghost: 50 damage, suffocate

• New Mod: Mana Evolution - an awesome new spellpack by Bug Jones!

•   Fully Reworked multiplayer difficulty scaling

  • Previously, every additional player increased enemy health linearly, making enemies extremely tanky in 3-4 player games.  

  • Now, enemy health scaling is capped at 2 players (2x health).  

  • Extra players beyond 2 instead increase the spawn budget and enemy variety by simulating higher levels — so 3-player games spawn enemies as if one level ahead, and 4-player games as if two levels ahead.

•  Enfeeble now stacks cumulatively

•  Summon card sell price now scales relative to the summoned unit's value

•  Add Cut spell for Spellmasons so Spellmasons always starts with at least a generic damage spell to support rounds where they choose a more specialized damage spell as their third pick

•  Fixed Deathmason preventing completion of the tutorial in singleplayer

•  Fixed Deathmason drawing disabled cards (from Sell mod)

•  Fixed Last Will stacking multiple times

•  Fixed mana bar not syncing after changing wizard type in hotseat multiplayer

•  Fixed floating text moving faster on high refresh rate monitors

•  Fixed Icy Veins now synergizes with Shatter

•  Modded maps are now announced

•  Admin set commands (like "set mana") now use text prompts so they work in steam
