Start a new game with items you had when you died by spending death cards

MidBoss version 1.0.8 is out now, containing 7 new early game monsters, and grave goods! When starting a new game in this version you may be asked if you wish to select grave goods. Every saved death card can be used once to select one item from the card’s inventory to start your new game with. This will help players get back up to speed more quickly after dying, and the new monsters will help vary up the early game. You can start a new game with up to 6 grave goods.
