A Farewell to Arms Patch Notes (Patch 2.1.0+)

Patch 2.1.2

New Features

New guns, items and synergies
Two new playable characters to unlock
A new secret floor with unique enemies and a new boss
Rainbow mode - A new mode inspired by the community where you start each floor with a rainbow chest, but can only pick up one of the offered guns/items
A new Beholster shrine
Unlockable alternate art for starting weapons
You can pet the dog!

Gameplay Changes/Improvements

Increased the boss DPS cap slightly (making it more lenient for players)
Boss health bars now fade out when drawn over players
The Robot can now use shrines that cost health by spending armor instead
The empty bottle now works properly with more items
Radial traps will give the player more time to react upon entering the room
Critical shots should no longer be blindingly bright
Increased the dropped rewards for defeating the Old King
Pedestal and wall mimics now drop rewards on death
Wall mimics will no longer spawn in boss rooms unless you are particularly cursed
Increased the chances of spawning some special rooms
Red chests that reward health up items will now also drop one key
Optimization pass which should improve performance in scenes with many bullets (particularly bosses like the Gorgun)
Many balance changes to guns and items, which should make red chests more consistently good

Bug Fixes

Fixed an issue which caused more wall mimics to show up on each subsequent run until the game was restarted (woops)
Fixed an issue where the speedrun timer counted down during some portions of the loading screen
Fixed an issue where duplicate resolutions could show up in the Video options menu
Fixed some missing or erroneous strings in several languages
Fixed a crash issue caused by the payday drill
Fixed an issue where the chest teleporter could sometimes cause chests to never reappear
Fixed an issue where co-op players could get stuck in walls during boss intros in boss rush mode or on the secret rat floor
Fixed an issue where some companions' bullets were triggering negative modifiers in Challenge Mode (Blobulin Rancher / Unfriendly Fire)
Fixed an issue where the dark room effect could persist unintentionally
