Hi folks,

A new update for DemonCrawl is now available! This update includes a Cullstone rework and a new omen called Rust. iOS players should see better temperatures with this patch.

We have also been making a number of changes to the online Arena gamemode. Although Arena is still in beta, we are including it in the patch notes below to give you a better sense of how its development is coming along.
