I am pleased to announce Fresh Blood, the first DLC to Mortal Glory! The DLC will contain a new game mode, new races, bows and more!

Check out more details from the Steam page:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1324470/Mortal_Glory__Fresh_Blood_DLC/

The DLC will be released during Q3 of 2020 (exact date to be revealed closer to release). Wishlist now to get notified immediately when the DLC is out!

Fixes:

-Fixed a bug with old save files that caused the game to freeze when using a buff/debuff.
-Abandoning an endless run will now update your high score if the score is high enough.
-Legendary items will now still show their names if you change language in middle of a run.
-Fixed a bug where Beast-type enemies were sometimes not properly recognized as AI characters (this only had potential effect on achievements or unit coloring)

Dev comments
Fighting enemies that dodge all your attacks for many turns in a row isn't very funny, especially if there's very little you can do about it. With the change to dodging in this update I am hoping to introduce some counter-play opportunities against such opponents. Now if you are facing an enemy with high dodge chance, you can get him to dodge a weaker attack or two and be much more confident in landing your next powerful attack.

Similarly, trying to get a debuff-centered character to work was like swimming against the current (not very fun) since most characters had decently sized debuff resistance just from Vitality. By splitting the debuff resistance scaling from Vitality and changing dot damage to percentual damage, I am hoping to introduce some late-game viability for builds that rely on debuffs to reach for the glory.

One more notable thing to mention in the update is the change to critical chance scaling. In most cases AGI has been just a secondary stat to get enough action points, but I am hoping by buffing crit% scaling there's now more room for experimenting with builds that invest more into AGI than just the bare minimum.

In addition to these update changes, I have also been working on completely new content to the game, but more information on that soon!

-Localization for 10 new languages (Polish also under work and coming at a later date)

-Battle AP counter visuals revamped
-Some changes to texts to prepare for localizations
-Other small adjustments for localizations

-Boss/beast character will now have all of their perks properly add to their stats
-Additional Glory level 16 and above will now properly increase difficulty (additional difficulty will only be applied after reaching 2nd level of tournament)

• You can now heal gladiators in town (price depends on tournament level)
  
• Turn Tracker
  
• Toggleable grid outline in battle (default keybinding: T)

• Perk adjustments:
  
• Zealous - Reduced bonus critical chance from 25% to 15% and instead of guaranteed injuries, it will now cause 2 additional injury counters if knocked out in battle.
  
• Heroic - Reduced bonus dodge chance from 25% to 15%
  
• Amnesiac - No longer possible to get from title gains
  
• Demand/Desire adjustments:
  
• Reduced Long match requirement from 14 to 10 turns.
  
• Event adjustments:
  
• Reworked 'Yearning For Rest' event to have a more balanced choice instead of purely negative.
  
• Reduced injury counter punishments in following events: Diving In Deep, Special Prices, A Lucky Find?, An Original Coctail, A Perilous Sleepover, An Abandoned Chest, Grim Awakening, Practice Makes Perfect, Raise The Pitchforks! & Fan Encounter.
  
• Difficulty:
  
• Enemy gladiators are now increasingly more likely to have equipment & skills matching their strengths as you go up the tournament ladders.
  
• Gear:
  
• Slightly reduced dodge & crit chance amounts in equipment

• Perks on special characters will now have their bonuses added correctly.
  
• Fixed a bug that caused the game to soft-freeze if all your units died in a match.
  
• Fixed an uncommon bug that enabled gladiators to take endless turns after using skills that don't consume a turn.
  
• Partial fix to rare saving issues. Earlier the game could freeze if the save file was in use (f.ex. by cloud drive syncing or some editor) - now the game will continue and display an error message.
  
• Partial fix to an uncommon bug where units would slightly step off the grid (enabling them to move within pillars or outside of arena). Root cause for this is still unknown, but now the game will try to prevent the situation and correct itself if it happens. Let me know if this is still causing issues!
  
• Fixed a rare bug where the battle could continue after it was already over.
  
• Fixed a bug that prevented achievement for 10 & 50 wins from being given. You can gain these retroactively by winning a match.
  
• Luck will now be calculated properly immediately after loading.
  
• Fixed a bug where difficulty was incorrectly displayed immediately after loading.
  
• Typo fixed in Fiendling's description.
  
• Slightly decreased Endless win number font so 3 digit values don't look funny.
  
• Slightly adjusted unit stat numbers so 3 digit values don't look funny.
  
• Soul Purge's damage description fixed to match actual type.
  
• Potions' damage descriptions fixed to be uniform with other skills.

-Game won't try to give achievements if there are problems with Steam connection. This hopefully fixes a rare bug that caused soft-freezes after fights or after winning the tournament.
-Impaling Advance will now properly deal piercing damage
