It sounds like CloverPit has done tremendous business for Panik Arcade since it launched back in September of this year.
This first-person slot machine roguelike about life and death decisions in a hellish prison cell delivers a most unusual experience built around risk and reward, and it’s also a fascinating game full of interesting nuance and clever mechanics (check out my review for more details).
Today’s news update falls into two categories. First, there’s a sales milestone, with publisher Future Friends confirming that they’ve hit the jackpot, with one million copies of the game sold so far. Congrats to everyone involved!
Then there’s the small matter of a new update.
CloverPit 1.2 – The Hard Mode Update
The Hard Mode Update does exactly what it says on the tin, by offering players a new challenge to tackle.
The new difficulty will open up after winning with a specific condition, as detailed in this Steam post. Simply put, your target is going to double, but there are rainbow-themed rewards.
On top of the new mode, players can expect a bunch of balance tweaks as the developers continue to refine things. In fact, the patch notes linked above do a much better (and funnier) job of explaining how the game’s various items have been modified based on player feedback.
There’s a new trailer for the update, too, so check it out below, but because not because I told you to, but because your soul depends on it.
