0.55.5049 - Spooky Stuff

Still not efficient, but eventually managed to push the update till the end of October. Well, almost the deadline, eh?

So, we have two new monsters: Roleplayer (who rolls dice to determine the amount of damage and hit/miss) and Vacuum Stealer which is like a regular vacuum cleaner but can spawn off Stealer Trap, which in turn will strip all items from the heroine and scatter them around and send Vacuum Stealers to pick those up.

There is a set of six “Spiral” items, which are supposed to work together best and increase damage by up to +4 if a full set if worn, or +12 damage if character is unarmed. Not to mention that there is a possible combination that will work together with Amulet of the Wild totaling in whooping +19 damage, or total of 24 unarmed.

And… I’m not really sure about that, but for now let’s keep those: two new Halloween-themed items: Ghost Cloth (stealthy and spooky) and Jack’o’Lantern (very uncomfortable and limiting but buffs damage by +5 and another +5 if the heroine is unarmed).

Ah and two more possible map variants :)

P.S. of course I’ve missed two minor bugs: First, Halloween items aren’t added to the Vinculopedia and second, ghost cloth is drawn on top of weapon :) I’ll release a hotfix asap.
