Patch v0.6.3

Patch v0.6.3 🪵

Backpack Battles just added the Oaken Tower crossover: Time Pendant to their game!

Welcome to all new Oaklings!

I'm Bocary, the Solo dev of Oaken Tower. And I simply want to make Oaken Tower as great as possible! Join the Discord and chat if you have balance suggestions etc.

It would mean so much if you would consider leaving a Steam Review ❤️

Balance

The Fairytale nerf helped a ton, but it is still slightly too oppressive early game due to how easy it is to trigger with Butterflies. For that reason, Butterflies is seeing an adjustment which effectively works as a nerf to Fairytale.

  • 🔄 Butterflies: 7 dmg --> 12 dmg | 1.4s CD --> 1.8s CD.

The Vampire set generally has a healthy power-level (albeit a high use-rate), but Red Rose proved slightly too strong in high star-tiers.

  • 🔴 Red Rose: 20/40/80/100 % max hp --> 20/30/40/80% max hp

The Goblin pack was the least used pack, so some of the underperforming Goblin items are seeing a buff:

  • 🟢 Bomb Wagon: 2 Charges --> 3 Charges.
  • 🟢 Heavy Bomb: 250 dmg --> 300 dmg.
  • 🟢 Honing Steel: 3.4s CD --> 3s CD.
  • 🟢 Cannon: 3.5s CD --> 3.4s CD | 60g --> 55g. | 25/33/50% bomb stat gain --> 30/50/70% bomb stat gain.

Additional buffs for underperforming items:

  • 🟢 Glacier: 35 dmg --> 45 dmg | 40g --> 35g.
  • 🟢 Kingslayer: 3.7s CD --> 3.6s CD.
  • 🟢 Emerald Sword: 20 dmg --> 40 dmg.
  • 🟢 Nightfall: 4.3s CD --> 4.1s CD.
  • 🟢 Hunter's Tome: 25g --> 20g.

Other

  • You can now select "Random Perk" even though you didn't unlock all perks. You only gain bonus rating if you actually unlocked all.
  • 3-Star Crook now has alternative name: Fluffeh's Crook.

Fixes

  • Fixed a bug where using Time Tonic would only count towards the "Growth" achievement when right-clicking the potion.
  • Unlocking Rare Find or Gambit (win while only buying rare/epic items) no longer cares if you buy potions or special items.
