Skul: The Hero Slayer, the roguelike platformer title by SouthPAW Games, received a small update today. Patch 1.7.2 went live a few hours ago and it brought a plethora of bug fixes and improvements. Players can also expect minor tweaks to stages and enemies.
The patch makes the Danka Knight event map playable again. It also puts the Ultimate Golem layer in chapter three at the front of the map terrain. The Root Ent’s attack radius will now align with the pre-attack animation radius, and spirits spawned by the Saviour will explode as intended.
