The new version of RogueLove is now available here on Itch! New animations, a new floor, and a new boss. The game is now beatable, although the final boss fight will likely be changed before the game's final release.
Thanks for the quick turn around on that hand bug. I think you might have set the default stage to the ramparts to test or something, since downloading the hotfix a new game has been starting on stage 7 for me. Also got a bug where one of the worms spawned outside of a room and didn't get auto-killed
