Here's the revolver with some of the new upgrades in action: Endless Mode Rework Some people were concerned from my last news post, when I announced that endless mode is getting removed.

New Character: Dasher! Transform into a deer and stomp through hordes of enemies! Summoning Rework New summoning perks have been added, and old summoning perks have been changed to, hopefully, provide greater build variability. Ghost Friend Ghost Friend’s attacks now are much faster and can trigger on-hit effects, making it a valuable companion for Burn/Freeze/Lightning builds .

- V0.8.5 - New Upgrade Perks - Aero Magic and Dodge! - 12 November 2022
Aero Magic Become master of the wind with Aero magic! Shoot out gales to tear monster apart! Dodge Dodge enemy attacks with the Evasive upgrade perks. These new perks give players more defensive options to help survive until dawn! Other Changes Getting ping-ponged around by enemies when players got hit was a frustrating experience. So now, getting hit by enemies will no longer knock the player around. Instead, enemies are knocked away. Bullet bounce was causing bullets to go back towards the player and was often obscuring the player sprite. So bounce has been changed to ricochet towards the nearest enemy, reducing the chance that the player sprite will be obscured by bullets.
