Dungeon Souls Update #13

READ THESE UPDATES! GAME SAVES MAY BE AFFECTED! 

Scope

Details of this section: 
 
Patch 13.3 has a lot of changes to inner gameplay elements. Arcane forge has been added to the game, as well as two new heroes. Some other story elements were added, as well as new background music for certain levels. 

Game Elements

Save File

WARNING! READ CAREFULLY: Because of the addition of the new heroes, the save-file configuration had to be replaced. However, an update-mechanism was added. This mechanism should automatically detect that your save file is an older version (if it is the case) and update it, without resetting any progress. A message should appear saying that the save file was updated. IF the message does not appear, either you are playing a fresh version of the game, or your save file might be corrupted. 

Menu

-(NEW)Arcane Forge: Added a new entry to the main menu to go to the Arcane Forge. 

Heroes

-(NEW)Brawler: 

The brawler is a fast-paced class that excels in dealing damage around himself and quickly striking his foes! You can unlock him by defeating over 500 enemies in game! You can also check his abilities in the 
character select preview. 

-(NEW)Engineer: 

The engineer is a slow-paced, heavy damage-dealer hero that uses his spider bots and mine fields to blow up foes! You can unlock him by finding the "Rockets!" item. You can also check his abilities in the character 
select preview. 
-Necromancer: 

Changed the look of the necromancer's skeletons so that they are distinguishable from enemy skeletons. 

-Nightblade: 

Fixed a bug where nightblade's first ability was dealing more damage than intended. 

Items

-Item Stacking (BETA MECHANISM): Item stacking now has a chance to give materials for arcane forge, as well as gold and experience! 

-(NEW CLASS)Recipes 
A new class of items were added called "Recipe". These are used to forge items in the arcane forge.

Enemies

-(NEW)Arcane Forge 

The arcane forge is a place where you can forge items and weapons to use in future runs for your heroes. You do so by using recipes collected in the Forbidden Library (random drop from monsters) and 
by collecting materials from your runs. Whenever an item reaches full stack, it will drop ingredients to be used on the arcane forge! Thanks to everyone who contributed, specially to Steam user Herbrek for the suggestion! 

-(NEW)Fire Sword Recipe 
A recipe to craft a fire sword that gives a chance of burning enemies. 

-(NEW)Fire Axe Recipe 
A recipe to craft a fire axe that gives a chance of burning enemies. 

-(NEW)Fire Bow Recipe 
A recipe to craft a fire biw that gives a chance of burning enemies. 

-(NEW)Fire Scepter Recipe

Bug Fixes

Details of this section: 
 

-NO MORE SONIC:Fixed a bug where using shoes of haste and footfinger would create an insane movement-speed boost and essencially break the game. 
-SHOW ME YOUR HEALTH:Fixed a bug where the judgement's second form was not displaying health bar. All bosses spawning on judgement's boss fight now display a mini-health bar above them. 
-REPEAT OR NOT REPEAT:Fixed a bug where potions were not transforming into gold/experience correctly. 
-Several minor bug-fixes were applied.
