1.9.0 - Hot 300


Another update with a decent amount of new items, balance changes and bug fixes!

One of the bigger changes in this update is the replacement of one of Jester's card packs, the parallel universe burn set. The old version of this pack suffered from being ridiculously powerful when the floor 2 shop card "Incinerate" was purchased, but ridiculously weak without it. As a result I've totally redesigned this pack of cards with Incinerate as the main focus of its gameplay. Now the main focus is centered around the player disabling their cards with burning dice in order to deal more damage with Incinerate. This has given the back a much better balance curve.

Also, with this update the mod has exceeded 300 items! I honestly never expected to make so many. This will probably be the last big update I make to this mod barring any sudden flashes of inspiration, so I'm happy to have reached this milestone.
