From what I've heard, there are about 300+ runs in queue over all 3 chapters, so adding another 12 levels to moderate this would not a good idea, at least for now.

Is there a way to downpatch directly to patch 1? The one released on Feb 9th

Idk why that happens but I'm sure the mods will fix it. Here's a (hopefully) working invite: https://discord.gg/rgQSgTwJfJ

Try lowering your graphic settings and if that doesn't work then you need to wait for 1.8.1 to come out

Elementary Evil boss is kinda pointless since it's only about surviving like 2 minutes but adding Deadly Decadence boss is a cool idea
