April Fools' Day 8-Bit Adventures 2 Update!

8-Bit Adventures 2
A downloadable game for Windows

Happy April Fools’ Day everyone!

I wanted to do something special to celebrate, so the latest update include two special features – alongside the usual list of fixes.

  • If you visit one of the game’s many towns, you might notice that things look…well, a little different to normal.
  • And if you’ve completed the game, then taking a trip to the Frozen North in your Airship may reveal a special, spectral boss fight…

For anyone just trying to play the game normally, I apologise if this causes you any trouble. The changes to the towns and the extra boss will ONLY be available to players for 1 day (until midnight on April Fools’ Day in PST).

This was something that I can only do while the game’s exclusive to PC (as updating on console is much more complicated), so I hope it gives everyone a chuckle =) I’d love to know if you beat the boss!

In addition to the foolish festivities, this update also makes some further changes:

- Fixed a minor treasure chest bug in the Cliffside Ruins.

- Fixed a typo in the Final Dungeon.

- Nerfed Sunder HP a little more (from 12% to 10% of a foe's current HP), and fixed the incorrect description.

- Nerfed the Zero Sabre a bit more, reducing its Critical Hit chance from 50% to 25%, and its Attack power from 23 to 16. I've been trying to find a good balance with this weapon (as it can be incorporated very effectively in certain builds), so hopefully this is it!

- Changed the text directing players to the Leviathan's Lair to make its location a little more clear.

Hope everyone has a great weekend!
