Ananias Roguelike 1.78 released. Bigger rooms, more animations, keyboard commands and more!

Published by

Another awesome update is available! This one was delayed a bit by issues with my main dev macbook laptop, which decided to stop working properly and I haven’t been able to fix completely even after using all the spells I know. At least I now have a legit excuse for not releasing the iOS version 🙂

I also did an initial full pixel-art version of the new trailer, since my macbook is no longer operational (I’m not even sure the current work on the trailer is safe), that will take a little bit more.I intend again for this version to be the final way feature wise for the release on iOS and Steam. But that doesn’t mean much… I have had the same intent for about a year.Check the full changes log below!
