Latest GitHub update checked
At this check, the main branch ends at commit b742e43772, dated November 1 at 00:41 UTC (08:41 in China). Its message describes stability improvements. The commit replaces the game bundle and changes the version references in the English and Spanish game pages.
The pinned version file contains marker 6b2b3547e5, timestamped November 1 at 00:27 UTC. A bundle marker and a Git commit identify different things. There was no separate GitHub Release at this check, and the commit provides no detailed gameplay changelog. We cannot attribute a particular balance change to it.
Halloween dates and menu fix
The developer's October 26 announcement introduced Halloween; the October 28 entry extended it through October 30–November 2, 2026, Spain time. Check the in-game countdown for the time remaining in your location. These dates describe this event, not a recurring annual schedule.
The October 28 entry also reports a fix for menus closing unexpectedly around event transitions. The announcements do not specify the complete reward list, so we do not promise particular drops or bonuses.
Mobile controls and co-op
The October 26–27 notes address touch selection, mobile navigation and multiplayer interruptions. The practical changes include:
- An Anchored joystick option under Settings → Controls → Place the buttons. It stays at the initial touch point until you release it; Floating remains the default.
- Fixes for cards being selected incorrectly while using touch controls.
- Co-op connection fallback using either player's relay connection, and waiting for a slow connection rather than letting gameplay fall progressively behind.
These are developer-reported fixes. We have not measured connection quality or tested these controls in a game run.
Ability and equipment corrections
The October 27 notes also correct interactions that can affect builds: Weak Armor, Steadfast and Rattled should preserve stronger existing speed boosts. Assault Vest's contribution is treated separately from the Armor-card cap.
Our direct-hit calculator excludes abilities and equipment. These corrections therefore require gameplay context beyond its displayed baseline; they are not evidence of a new best starter or survival ranking.
Save protection and menu news
The October 30 announcement describes stronger checks against manually altered browser saves. It says cloud data is used to reject fabricated collection changes while preserving progress earned through play. This does not establish a recovery method for every missing-save problem. Avoid save-editing extensions, and use the game's own account and support options if progress is missing.
That day's menu changes add links to the developer's Discord and YouTube updates. An October 31 entry brings the news banner to phones in landscape. Follow those links from the official game rather than relying on an old copied invite.
What this means for our calculators
The GitHub marker has changed from our local snapshot. We have not compared every current bundled rule with the calculator model, so unchanged upgrade prices or damage formulas are not confirmed by this review.
Use the tools for the documented snapshot and supported inputs. Read Sources & method for the model limits, the permanent upgrade guide for budget examples, or the move evolution guide for the supported recipes. New game announcements do not automatically refresh those calculations.
Sources and verification
- Developer news: dated announcements from October 26–31. The dates above follow the developer's entries.
- Pinned announcement source: the news text present in the checked repository revision.
- Latest checked commit and version marker: repository evidence, not proof that every live session runs this bundle.
Checked November 1, 2026. Later commits and announcements may supersede this summary.
