Not sure if anyone else is having this issue, but when I fire up Endless Mode, every level is showing the Moon background graphics.  At first I thought the developers had redesigned the Mines graphics, but when I entered the dungeon level, the same background tiles loaded.

 

This glitch does not appear to be affecting the gameplay.

 

Thanks.

I dont know i have not bought it yet. Combo mode was sad. So i haven't got the nerve to buy endless mode. Perhaps someone could post a demo of endless mode on youtube? I think it would be helpful to other people too who are on the fence

Endless mode is pretty good, it feels like an old school Rogue game, in that, you WILL die at some point.  It also seems to start out a bit easier than Rogue mode in the main game.  Also the boss battles are cut out.  I play that mode almost exclusively now.

It isn't an issue, in our eyes. Endless mode is a separate game space, taking you through the infinite depths of the moon. Near-infinite, really. Wait, that's still infinite. Pretty darn far!

The theme is reinforced on the OS X version, wherein all of the game's monsters are in a more spacey color palette. I need to get that working on iOS soon… (it was accomplished on OS X using a library Apple disapprove of for iOS, for perfectly sensible reasons, I'm sure).

Wait, so it's supposed to be on the moon?  A moon with bandits, zero-g bats and mice running around?  A moon where the load screens still show the mine and dungeon graphics?

You are correct that it doesn't alter the way the game plays (it's still my favorite mode), but this can't be how it was intended to function.

It makes more sense on OS X, where they are given rocky moon colorings to match their surroundings, as in alien versions of themselves. That is a high-priority addition to 2.9.4 iOS.
