Miscellaneous bug fixes and quality of life improvements suggested by the community

Casual Game Mode

The brand-new Casual Game Mode is intended for people who mostly just want to see everything Sparklite has to offer, without the pressure of failure. In this mode, hearts drop more often, players begin their adventure with more health & there are also more dig spots. This mode is ideally suited to players who want to focus on Sparklite’s story and enjoy the world of Geodia.

Champion Game Mode

For players who like an additional challenge after beating the game. Ada's adventure will be harder this time around. Enemies and Titans will be stronger and have new attacks but, the rewards will be greater as they will drop more Sparklite. Players start the game with all schematics but Vaults no longer appear in the world. Choose this mode for a whole new way to experience Sparklite.

With this new update, you will also be able to earn unique banners in Town for beating the game on Standard and Champion modes.
