Fire and Ice: Update #1 Released!

The time has finally come and the first major update for Pylon: Rogue is now available: “Fire and Ice”! This update adds the Golem, rebindable keys, new items, and more!

The Golem is a new playable character that can shift between stone, fire, and ice forms at will. When in fire form, enemies have a chance to be ignited, and when in ice form, enemies have a chance to be frozen. The stone form has a chance to cause ignited enemies to explode, and frozen enemies to shatter, dealing extra damage!

Patch Notes:

• Critical Hit Damage is now a separate stat that determines how much bonus damage is applied on a critical hit (previously, a critical hit was treated as double damage)

• New character: The Golem

  • Switch between fire and ice forms at will.

  • Combo your attacks: Fire ignites enemies, stone makes ignited enemies explode. Ice freezes enemies, stone shatters frozen enemies.

• 4 New Items

  • 2 items to increase the new crit damage stat

  • Frost Boots: Leave behind a trail of ice that slows down foes, and sometimes freezes them

  • Fire Boots: Leave behind a trail of fire that ignites enemies

• Rebindable keys: Don't like the default control scheme? Change it!

• Added “Ability Modifier” keys 1 and 2 to controls

  • used by the Golem for switching forms (default LT and RT on controllers, Shift and Control on keyboard)

• Added options to change the input API (default, xinput, and/or native)

• Added a toggle to general options to make interacting with objects instant
