New combat test build! Status effects, trinkets, and capturable characters! (Patreon)

After a lot of work, I can finally share this
If you can, please give it a try and let me know how it feels.

Also, please let me know of any bugs or feedback!

What changed:

• Units now cost double but have double stats

• New status effect system; units now cause status effect damage that, when full, triggers its functionality

• Mushslinger attacks now cause Break status; when triggered, it reduces the target's armor and resistances by 30%

• Leafling attacks now cause stun buildup; when full, stun is consumed to fill 30% of the target's stagger bar

• Bosses now have levels; clearing one level unlocks the next, with big thresholds after level 5,10,15. At different thresholds, bosses will have new mechanics

• Minions can now be leveled up inside the tower to start the battle with better stats, but this mechanic is not accessible in this build

• Equipment is now a new mechanic; at loadout, you can equip your units with trinkets

• Reworked loot based on boss level and how fast the player can finish the fight

• Capturable characters after battle, with quality and quantity based on how fast you can finish the run

• A ton of rebalancing

IMPORTANT: THIS BUILD IS A COMBAT-ONLY BUILD. THE STATION MECHANICS ARE NOT ACCESSIBLE IN THIS BUILD YET. I WILL ADD IT IN A LATER BUILD THIS MONTH!

IMPORTANT 2: THERE IS NO SAVEGAME AVAILABLE
