Description
Slay the Spire 2 has beta card art saved in game files. This mod allows it to be toggled dynamically during the run, just like Slay the Spire 1, without including any images in the mod files.
This card is from beta branch 0.104.0, but it has art that is usually hidden in the game files. This is the true beta art for this card and the mod is only showing what is already in the game files.

Slay the Spire 2 has beta card art saved in game files. This mod allows it to be toggled dynamically during the run, just like Slay the Spire 1, without including any images in the mod files.
Features
- Beta Art checkbox appears next to the existing "View Upgrade" checkbox
- Allows you to see the actual first version of some card arts (Unmovable, Crimson Mantle, Cascade, Conflagration, Vicious, Drum of Battle and many many more)
- Per-card toggle — enabling beta art for one card doesn't affect others
- Immediate refresh — hand, compendium, and all other views update instantly when toggled
- Persistent — which cards are toggled is saved to `%APPDATA%\SlayTheSpire2\betaart_enabled.txt` for Windows `~/Library/Application Support/SlayTheSpire2/betaart_enabled.txt` for Mac
- Beta art save file is independent of game save files; removing the mod leaves saves untouched (I doubt it will be a problem, its a 5kb txt maximum)
This card is from beta branch 0.104.0, but it has art that is usually hidden in the game files. This is the true beta art for this card and the mod is only showing what is already in the game files.
