We have FIRE! Stay warm this winter break with the new flamethrower xD Farm some monsters until they drop the Flamberge and FrizzX, or just use the console.
Fire has turned out better + easier than I expected, so excited to work on lightning and ice soon. In addition, we have three new hats and elite monsters now have unique random color patterns so we can tell who they are. I think the new colors make the game a lot more alive, especially trees. Oh, and land generation gets more hilly further out int he wilderness.
I've also fixed a few minor issues and done some changes and optimizations to make the game run a bit easier, and some item colors have changed as a result.
Have a good break everyone. I'll bust out another update soon, hopefully with some progress on biomes.
