• Added yet more safety checks to prevent Arrow Traps from spawning behind interior wall sections
• Fixed a targeting issue with Vilepots that would cause them to become unresponsive
• Tightened up Lucky Charm to better prevent the player from jumping around during the resurrection animation and made the invulnerability period outlast ignite and poison

Camilla, Second Disciplinarian and WHIP

Welcome to WHIP peasant! Camilla has occupied Arkanos’ empty library and has a new motivational strategy. The Worker’s Helpful Incentive Program, or WHIP for short, is a daily run mode. Each day Camilla will present you with a random set of hexes, items, and a familiar. Your job is to run either Undermine or Othermine and score the highest score you can. Your best run will be placed on a daily leaderboard against other players. See if you can score the highest!

Log

There is now a log in the journal that stores information about recent runs. See past runs in both Undermine and Othermine. See what their seed was, how much gold was collected, which enemies were defeated, and in the case of WHIP, how high a score was achieved.

Familiar Styles

Each familiar now has an alternate style that can be toggled at a magic mirror in Griswold’s room. Familiar styles can be unlocked by scoring over 100,000 points and completing a WHIP run with a particular familiar.

• Canary - Golden Nugget
• Chaos Spawn - Stoneforge Discord
• Djinn - Whispered Wish
• Eidolon - Cruel Spectre
• Firebird - Furious Black

• Pale Likeness - Crystal Skull

New Items:

Familiars

• Pale Likeness - A familiar that is unlocked after defeating Din. The Pale Likeness tends to do more harm than good.
• Murderous Queen - A familiar unlocked by defeating the Plunder King in the Bog. The Murderous Queen attacks enemies with poison projectiles and spawns powerful healing blessings called Drops of Honey.

Relics

• Orion's Sword - Temporarily increase damage when attacked
• Golden Axe - Spent gold is turned into bonus damage
• Twin Blade - Gain a second pickaxe

Happy Holidays peasants, and Merry Christmas Eve! Santa said you had all been good this year, so he decided to deliver the UnderMine update one day early! We poured a lot of hard work into this one and we hope you enjoy it. Kick back, put on a good cup of coffee, and enjoy the update. You deserve it!

Features

The Contested Bog

A gate can now be found at the edge of the Shimmering Caverns. It is guarded by two familiar creatures, but they will only allow access when certain conditions are met. Beware! Even if you discover the conditions for entry, a huge challenge awaits. The Contested Bog is home to UnderMine’s most dangerous creatures.

Plunder King

Deep in the Contested Bog, the Plunder King hoards a pile of treasure in his trove. He has become corrupted by his greed, and the corruption spreads throughout the area. Defeat the Plunder King and claim his crown as your own.

Tus, Wandering Minstrel

Tus is a wandering bard that spreads mello vibes wherever he goes. Tip Tus some gold for his efforts. If he deems your tip generous enough you may receive a reward.

Seed Input

You can now check your randomizer seed from the main menu in the Hub. You’ll also be able to generate a new seed, or input one of your own. You can now play the same randomized dungeon layouts as other players using this menu. This feature can be used for Othermine as well by entering a seed after donning the crown, before entering the portal.

Boss Tracker

Once a summoning stone has been lifted, a boss tracker will appear on the pause menu. This tracker will show the status of each boss.

Poison as an Official Element

Poison has been added as an official element. Now items that interact with elemental damage will also interact with poison. For example, Gordon’s Tunic will reduce poison damage. Certain things will cover the ground in poison. If food touches this it will become poisoned itself, with adverse effects!

Blighted Barb

Poisoned rocks will appear in the UnderMine. Destroying these rocks will give the peasant a temporary poison buff similar to Crippling Poison.

Momentary Peril

You may find a mysterious orb in a start room. Interacting with this orb will give you a temporary curse called Momentary Peril. It sets your health to 1, and gives you a certain number of rooms to clear. If you can clear the rooms the curse will be removed and you’ll be rewarded for your efforts.

Many other secrets await in the Royals update, but we didn’t want to spoil them. Search every corner of the game to find them.
