Each run begins with a random god bestowing a handful of possible gifts upon you and allowing you to select one. For example, you might be offered a more powerful standard attack, a special that inflicts a status effect and a unique dash (such as one that deflects incoming projectiles or one that leaves behind a damaging flurry in its wake). As you go forward you’ll get more chances to receive new gifts or replace/enhance existing ones. By doing this your basic set of moves is altered with interesting traits on each run.
