Shattered Pixel Dungeon's next major update will be going to beta early this coming week.
Here's one more new thing coming in v2.5: new cursed wand effects! I'm adding 16 new effects, ranging from simple bubbles to a rare but extreme supernova explosion! The bubbles are harmless but you really, really want to avoid the explosion.
(Image description: A GIF showing the new supernova explosion effect. A yellow glowing orb keeps growing in size while danger indicators litter the floor. After 10 turns the orb explodes, killing the player)
Does it only trigger an explosion blob on the red indicators? If so, then you could even outlive it if healthy enough, and it'd be kinda easy to dodge, if you are not trapped. You could make it so it also beckons all the enemies to that location, after all, a huge light followed by a huge explosion just happened. A way of making it more impactful
If these new effects means that you are less likely of triggering the cursed trap effect and the one that takes you like 10 floors above, then they are welcome
