Recent patches have introduced more than just bug fixes. Players now have access to a Steam Inventory system for cosmetics, allowing for extensive character customization that wasn't present at launch.

The "Loop Queen" strategy has trivialized the new "Deep Descent" mode, where enemies are harder but drop rarer loot. Streamers are using this build to hit the integer limit on gold and levels, showcasing the game's lack of a hard cap on scaling.
