Greeting Chosen Ones,

We've got something for you: a new Beat the Seed challenge on Discord!

  • 🩸 A reminder of the Seed system:
The Seed system allows you to play and compare your progress with friends.

A Seed is a code (a small line of digits between 6 and 7) that determines everything in a campaign: the order of missions spawned, the monsters encountered and the stats of the player's characters.

Sharing a Seed with a friend brings comparison and competition to the game:
- You will find your Seed number by going to the option menu in game and check the bottom right corner of your screen.
- To use someone else's Seed, you will need to start a new save. Then, the game will propose you to enter a Seed.

  • 🩸 What is the Beat the Seed challenge?
This challenge is called Beat the Seed, and will be based on.. well.. the Seed system we added to the game last June! We already did two similar challenges to see if the format fitted your expectations as players. It is a competition where everyone plays the same Seed (same missions, bonuses, etc.).

The competition:

🧬 Here is the Seed you'll be competing on: 636425 Nightmare mode
To play this Seed, you will need to start a new save and the game will propose you to enter a Seed. If you struggle, please use seeds.

👑 How to win:
  • The winner will be the one with the highest score on the first day of Era 3: The Cellar Prison, in 1st Recollection before playing any Synapses in Era 3. Or expressed differently: just after Era 2. To participate, reach the first day of Era 3, and hit End recollection.
  • The score is calculated like this: the number of enemies killed / (the number of sacrificed + fallen daughters).
  • We will need the screenshot of your End of Recollection screen and save file (named _save_0).
    Send them in a direct message to louise.lightbulbcrew#8119 on Discord!
    Othercide Discord invite: https://discord.gg/jFN7Q35D3Z
People already started to discuss about the challenge and shared some tips on Discord! Join us :)

Good Luck everyone!

Full patch notes

🩸 New Features:
  • Seed system
    • Allows you to play and compare your progress and strategies with friends.
    • A Seed is a code (a small line of digits between 6 and 7) that determines everything in a campaign: the order of missions spawned, the monsters encountered and the stats of the player characters
    • Seeds you can try:
      - 636425: With this Seed, you'll profit from an event early on that will let you do more than one battle with a daughter a day. Great to multiply your xp gain quickly and start your run strong!
      But watch out, while the event is active you won't be able to manage your daughters, so be careful. However, the enemies will also benefit from the damage bonus; so be prepared.
      - 280342: Start your run with some warm-up! A balanced Seed starting with easy missions and becoming more difficult as you progress in the first era.
      - 161391: This Seed will give you a rescue mission as your third mission on a not-so-common map at such an early stage. Also you should encounter the Adrenaline event around the same time, which will give you a pretty nice damage boost for a start.
  • Renaming the Daugthers

🩸 QoL Changes:
  • Sorting mode now locked for Daughters lists
  • The pop up window to end the turn during a fight has been removed

🩸 Bug Fixes:
7.46 and after:
  • Lack of Ritual missions spawning.
  • Finishing a run by defeating the final boss may reset the memories section of the codex.
  • Using a remembrance allowing to skip an area may cause various numerous glitches.
  • The event "Extinguished" breaks when a Synapse is closed while the event is active.
  • The voice lines of the Mother and Bosses may overlap.
  • When a daughter has a specific hairstyle (bangs), if she enters a synapse with one other daughter or more, she may copy the hairstyle of one of them during the following mission.
  • Not enough enemies during a penance mission on the “Quarantine Bridge” and “The Dark Corner” to escape with all daughters.

    7.48:
  • Enemies can spawn invisible.
