What's next

Finally, a few words about future plans:

This will most likely be the last smaller content update in a while, as we are planning on doing a larger and more impactful update next. You can expect a bunch of new areas, enemies and other content to spice up the gameplay and add more variety to runs.

Meanwhile, have fun playing the game and let us know what you think of the new update!
