Public Build: Beta v0.0.1.0H (Patreon)

This month's build contains a lot of coding improvements, even though early summer stuff hit us pretty hard healthwise, with Kodex and Diesel both put out of commission for fairly long periods of time, able to work, but not at their full capacity. That said, we've gotten the Beta build up to the point we really wanted it to be sans the contests which still need some tweaking and testing in the background before they're ready to go live.

The biggest changes this month are adding the rest of the recipes, lots of UI improvements, lots of QoL improvements, and the start of work with a side animator who is still deciding on their pseudonym but who we'll announce shortly. This animator is working on cleaning up and touching up the work of our other animators, and was hired near the end of the month, so the full impact of his contributions have yet to be felt. We're hopeful that, health of everyone involved permitting, that this'll further speed up development and implementation of HD scenes.

Speaking of which, so that you guys can see the progress we HAVE made, as meager as that is, we're uploading the WIP .gifs for you guys as an apology and have implemented them in a limited format in the gallery already, just so you know that Dieselbrain and Sethpup didn't just drop off the face of the earth. The completed HDs will be hotfixed into the build.

Fio, Kiram, and Garst have been added to combat, and we're really looking forward to how they affect your party compositions. The mighty but tiny Kaledia will be added early in an upcoming hotfix.

Finally, we've expanded the energy system, so that it's expended while running, and regained by eating food, as well more directly affected by your stamina. We plan on slowly expanding the number of things that stamina is drained by, making it the primary limiter on what you can get done in the game within a single day.

We're really excited to get all of these small fixes out of the way, and have set the stage, finally, for getting the story dungeon content implemented next month, hopefully alongside Contests. In addition you'll be seeing far more progress in terms of dungeon tile types and dungeon events in the coming weeks on Spurple's Stream!

Thank you all again for your continued support, and we hope to continue to please!

Known Issues

*You will have to manually move the saves from your old data folder to the new one, these files would be savedata##.xml, global.sav and folders named Dungeon Data #. (The # means number), If there are no dungeon data folders don’t worry about it.

*In older saves incubator will lose all their eggs and the new companions will not be available for combat.
