Update 0.1.2: RUNES! (but they actually work now)

Escape the Slaughterhouse
A browser game made in HTML5

Runes were actually one one the first additions to this game about 3 or 4 months ago but were phased out due to being to finnicky. BUT they are back and completely reworked with the following changes :

  • The Forge
    • The forge allows you to apply items to your spells; for example, runes (its almost like that's what the whole update's about). Scrolls will be coming soon.
    • Runes, instead of applying a base stat value as they did before, will DOUBLE one specific stat on each spell (i.e. Rune of Multiplicity would double the number of projectiles spawned by your fireball spell)
    • additionally, runes can be leveled up, although higher levels don't do anything different at the moment
      • Upgrade by combining two runes of the same tier for a 50% chance to turn the two into one higher tier and a 50% chance to destroy both (gambling 🔥🔥🔥🔥)
  • a poison spell was also added which is very nice
  • and last of all, a new player sprite! although only half of the directional animations have been added yet

please consider checking the game out and leaving feedback!
