v0.0.872

• Refined Vampire Lord spell animation selection.
• Area-of-effect spells now use the dedicated Area of Effect: Cast strip.
• Projectile spells still use the regular Cast strip unchanged.

v0.0.867

• Fixed Vampire Lord and Vampire Spawn animation timing.
• Vampire Lord melee and bite attacks now commit to their full authored strips before another contact attack can start.
• Vampire Spawn melee and bite attacks now also play through their full attack strips, and Vampire Spawn death now runs at 100 ms per frame across the complete death sheet.
• Fixed Vampire Lord teleport presentation.
• Teleports now use the authored batport overlay effect in the foreground pass instead of reusing the generic cast-state presentation.

v0.0.861

• Added the Vampire Lord final boss encounter.
• Runs now warn one round early, then replace normal progression with a Dragon Gate portal finale after 10 full rounds from the starting round.
• The encounter spawns the Vampire Lord with Dragons, undead escorts, and Vampire Thrall defenders/support healers.
• Added dedicated Vampire Thrall and Vampire Lord animation-suite support.
• Enemies can now swap between state-sheet idle, walk, melee, bite, cast, and death strips instead of relying on one generic sheet.
• New Vampire Thrall and Vampire Lord definitions use their exported Aseprite animation states and skip blank-frame ranges.
• Added victory flow for defeating the Vampire Lord.
• Killing the final boss now opens a victory overlay with restart, recap, and quit actions, and deposits run gold plus the boss victory gold bonus into the vault.

v0.0.862

• Added a final-boss test toggle in data/gameplay.json.
• finalBoss.startAtRunStart now lets every new run begin directly with the Vampire Lord encounter for faster iteration and validation.

v0.0.863

• Fixed the final-boss start-of-run toggle.
• finalBoss.startAtRunStart now correctly survives run reset and wave-system initialization, so a wave 1 run opens directly into the Vampire Lord encounter as intended.

v0.0.864

• Retuned the Vampire Lord encounter presentation.
• Reduced the Vampire Lord’s on-screen scale substantially and preserved his original sprite colors instead of applying the generic boss tint.
• Doubled the size of the escort Dragons that spawn alongside the Vampire Lord.

v0.0.893

• Reined in wandering World Boss visuals so their promoted forms stay only modestly larger than standard enemies.
• World Boss nemesis scale tuning now targets roughly a 20-30% visual increase instead of oversized screen-filling sprites.
• Expanded captain naming coverage for overlooked enemy families.
• Fire Skulls and Slimes now draw from dedicated first-name and surname pools when promoted.
• Nemesis naming data now covers every current enemy family used by captains and world bosses.

v0.0.930

• Added rarity-colored loot beams to dropped items.
• World drops now render a vertical gradient beam behind the pickup icon, with stronger width, height, and pulse on higher-rarity gear.
• Item beams fade out with expiring pickups so timed drops disappear more cleanly instead of popping off the ground.
