What this update means for your run
Demo 0.4.1 fixes Thorntail gaining buffs from enemy-applied Poison, allows multiple Ancient Plumes to trigger together, and aligns Wishwash’s battle Trinket reward with the reward kept after battle.
- Upgrade Disc stops destroying itself without effect when the purchased copy already has a merge ready.
- High-rating players can face a wider range of opponents after an incorrect matchmaking restriction is removed.
Before using an older guide
Swim Coach’s ability also extends to level 4 Water units in this version. That belongs to its old speed effect, before the later daily-unit rework.

Small bugfix patch:
- Fixed a bug where players with high matchmaking rating were still playing with a very limited matchmaking pool.
- Fixed Thorntail getting buffed from opponents inflicting poison.
- If you have Ancient Plumes, they can now trigger all at once, instead of triggering only 1 per battle.
- Fixed Upgrade Disc destroying itself without doing anything if you already buy a monster that already has a level up merge setup (i.e. you already have 2 of the same species of the monster you are going to buy)
- Fixed a bug with Wishwash's ability where the trinkets it gives you in battle aren't the same as the one you kept for the rest of the run.
- Changed Swim Coach's ability to affect level 4 water monsters as well.
