Hey everyone, it's patch day again!
This patch brings a lot of back end changes for stability and future content.
While not too exciting on the content side, this is necessary to ensure quality and flexibility.
Slay the Spire is getting more and more popular! For all you new players, welcome! For all of you previous players, we would sincerely like to thank you for spreading the word. Thank you! It means a lot that you enjoy our game and spread the agony of defeat accomplished feeling of victory!
Back End Changes!?Yes, lots of exciting things are happening behind the scenes. Progress continues for the enigmatic 3rd character and leaderboards are coming soon(tm). Those in the beta branch have been a great help and we hope that we can feed your competitive needs in the next week.
Save MigrationWhen you run this week's build, your save data will be copied from the original directory (.prefs) to the new directory found in the game directory in a new "preferences" folder (betaPreferences for beta). Yes, this will diverge beta and non-beta save data.
This solves anti-virus false positives, full disk errors, and allows us to utilize Steam Auto-Cloud.
Steam Auto-CloudYour saves are now synced between computers! Please be careful not to overwrite your main save. If this occurs, the data is recoverable- there will be extra steps posted in the Bugs & Crashes FAQ in the Steam Discussions.
LocalizationThis weekly patch brings BETA-level localization for Korean.
Here's a quick refresher on how to change your language!
We're still looking for community translators! Any and all help for translations are greatly appreciated. Just stop by the official Slay the Spire Discord's localization channel.

Bronze Automaton's Hyper Beam damage is increased from 40 -> 45.
Feed no longer works on Minions (New Power: Minion to let you know who are minions).
