Adventure mode has been completely overhauled
- Players now have a choice of a series of different temples to play.
- Each adventure mode temple has a specific whip, relic, and series of challenges attached to it.
- Players can increase the challenge of an adventure mode temple to increase the rewards you unlock.
Classic mode is now called [b]Abyss Mode[/b]
- Abyss mode is the true Phantom Abyss experience.
- Progress through all 4 areas of the game. (Ruins, Caverns, Inferno, Rift)
- An extra challenge is added each floor.
- 1 Relic, located at the end of the Rift.
- Only 1 person will ever beat a specific temple.
- Many relics to find - each hidden in increasingly difficult Abyss Mode Temples.
- Curses have been removed from whips.
- Whips are unlocked by playing adventure mode.
- Whip skins are unlocked via opt-in challenges
[i]Torn-apart landscape The Rift is an area slowly being torn apart by the abyss. It features large areas filled with floating debris, whirlpools, and corruption spreading through the walls.
[/i]New rift traps:
- Lasers: Moving, rotating and cycling deadly lasers.
- Grapple nodes: Floating nodes that you can grapple-whip continuously without needing to land.
- Many new rooms
-
An upgrade well that provides permanent upgrades can be found in the HUB and in the first floor of temples.
- Upgrades are purchased with keys. Rarer keys = better upgrades.
[i]Dash forwards in the direction you’re facing, including up or down!
[/i]
- Players are able to add extra challenges to their temple.
- Doing so will make rarer keys more likely to find, and unlock additional whip skins.
[i]The HUB has been dramatically condensed.[/i]
-
The portal is much faster to get to, and the HUB now focuses around 4 pillars.
- Each pillar represents one of the 4 zones in the game (ruins, caverns, inferno, and rift.)
[i]The Crowbar[/i]
-
Power: Shockwave
- Wherever you whip creates a shockwave, interacting (and disabling) anything it touches.
[i]The Snake [/i]
-
Power: Time Slow
- Bound to a button - activate to slow time for several seconds.
[i]Lunar Whip [/i]
- Power: Super Dash
- Dash is upgraded to be…super.
[i]A lot of whip powers have been swapped around or added.[/i]
- Powers available at end-of-floor shrines are now always other whip powers.
- Heals have been moved to blessing shrines - which are only found in hidden nooks and crannies.
[i]Well, we just removed it...[/i]
