Tallowmere: Now available in Simplified Chinese (简体中文)
Lady Tallowmere and her friends have learned to speak Simplified Chinese (简体中文), with thanks to Kai Shao.
New & Updated:
- Tallowmere is now built with Unity 5.4.2f1.
- Added internal support for multiple languages. For details about translating Tallowmere, please read the Localisation Support thread. The default language is English. Please note that weapons and loot acquired prior to v340 may retain their English names even if you change the language.
- Added Simplified Chinese (简体中文) as a selectable language. Translated by Kai Shao. Available in-game under Main Menu> Options> Languages.
- Updated the Steam monthly leaderboard to November 2016.
- In singleplayer, the weapon info box in the top-left corner no longer fades out.
- Added a slight glow around each Acid Trap skull.

I will continue to post leaderboard links in the announcements.

- Added an option to disable blood. Available under Main Menu > Game Options > Blood.

The Shrining
Fire, ice, and everything nice. Lady Tallowmere has delivered 6 new shrines to her dungeon for you to discover.
Most rooms now have a 30% chance to contain a shrine, with a smaller chance that two shrines may appear. Shrines won't appear in boss rooms.

Activating a shrine will apply a visual effect to your hero and/or weapons for the duration.
Fiery Ice Wands? Icy Katanas? Double Damage Rocket Launchers? The power can be yours – if you're lucky.
Other changes:
