Fixes many other issues too, such as the wonky native controller support It was only afew days agowhen I mentioned that a difficulty adjustment update toMega Man Unlimitedwas on its way.Version 1.1.0is now available, bringing along a whole host of changes. The biggest and most welcome addition is the new Easy mode. Like inMega Man 10, safety blocks now cover many bottomless pits and spike traps, but that’s not all.

Once the concept was released upon the world, it blazed through the tabletop scene.ThunderstoneandAscensiontook the idea to the (yawn) fantasy swords and magic killing monsters theme, and at this point it seems like every big nerd franchise has got a deck-builder.
