[DEV] Upcoming Artifact: Skeleton Key! (infosec.pub)

Hey folks!

Shattered Pixel Dungeon v3.3 is in beta now (read the full blog post for more details), and it includes the games first new artifact in over ten years! (jeez how did that happen? Time flies)

The Skeleton Key grants the player new ways to control the dungeon environment. It can be used to open almost any lock in the dungeon, lock doors that weren't previously locked, and create temporary magical walls! There are a lot of creative ways to make use of this, and it opens up entirely new interactions with all the dungeon’s various doorways.

(Image Description: A GIF showcasing the skeleton key artifact's functionality. The player uses it to lock two doors and then uses it to create a temporary magical wall.)

Doesn't that make permanently locking the player out of winning trivially easy? Back in my day you had to abuse multiple teleportation glitches for that!

Internally doors locked by skeleton key have a different ID, and can be 'forced open' if you don't have a skeleton key to use to open them. Opening them with the skeleton key also costs 0 charges.
