Beta v3.1.35 Access (Patreon)
Content
- VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION -
As you may have noticed, the betas released after v3.33 is a complete overhaul and update to a ton of core mechanics, thus it is strongly suggested you restart the story or preferably begin a fresh, new playthrough to experience everything new if your save is from before the updated UI.
Currently, you can progress up until crossing River Checkpoint before reaching the end of the beta, which awards you with the Orb of Restoration, loading up old saves that takes place beyond this point will have a ton of graphical issues, so it's highly recommended not to.
But don't worry, keep those old saves secured because they will become compatible again once everything in the game has been updated, for the time being, the game is being progressively updated and additional betas will be released more frequently to let you continue.
If you are currently playing through the story and hasn't reached the end yet, while not wanting to restart, it's suggested to keep playing v3.33 as I'll leave the file available.

- IMPORTANT NOTES -
To reinstate what was mentioned in previous betas, this version of the game was made on a new computer, new OS and a new RPG Maker XP version I had to purchase from Steam. (Which adds a new file in the game folder)
I don't know for sure, but I think this file might be something that removes the need to download/install RPG Maker XP to play the game, which would make those steps in the manual redundant...but again, just assuming here!
It's only been a month, but here is the next beta anyway!
The core mechanics are being processed and you can currently reach River Checkpoint in the new build, meaning everything up until, and including, the High Lord Gathering arc can be finished in the updated style.
This also means there are far greater chances of graphical glitches, like the emoticon showing up incorrectly or staying on screen when it shouldn't.
Please report these either on the Discord server, the comments below, or message me personally, as some of these issues would be very hard for me to find on my own.
And as always, please check the Patch Notes for everything new with this release!
If you missed out on the previous versions, some major changes has been assigning sprinting to SHIFT/Z, which no longer requires anything, along with a "Quick-Menu" being accessed with the A button, except during "chases" or when the menu is disabled for story reasons.
Be sure unpack the game from the downloaded .ZIP file and to consult with the manual if it's your first time starting up!
The manual also list how to properly import saves between betas/episodes, if you've ever encountered an issue where the game acts like the new content hasn't been added.
And please report any oddities or glitches you may encounter in the comments below, or in the troubleshooting section of the LoQO Discord channel you should have access to.
Enjoy!
