Hi, everyone!
Here's the first update of Light Apprentice!
Update notes
- Fixed the bug in which your potions would not be saved after a challenge (battle)
- Rebalancing and new levels of difficulty: Normal and Hard (the previous only level has become the Easy one). We hope you'll enjoy each of them!
- Mouse wheel/up on controller to scroll up, in case you missed any immediate comic part(s)
- Adventure mode cursor easier to navigate with controller
- Sometimes he game would break later on your second save. Not anymore
- Various bug fixes and graphic improvements in chapters 2, 3 and 4
Early Access
We like Early Access because it allows us to develop with the community. Thanks to you, we were able to i.e. identify the biggest bug on the list (potions not being saved if you die in a challenge), and I hope it will make it better for you. We also made the Quests button more obvious, so you'll hopefully click there and understand that's where you can get more potions if you run out of them. There was much more fixed, but I'm trying to keep it short :)

We hear you, but...
With that being said, I have heard a few of you and feel obliged to tell you that there is still no auto save or save wherever you want feature, and there probably won't be one. The current save system is a design choice, and until we are able to change the core system of the game (it would take a lot of time and resources and would extrapolate out budget and time frame), it can't be changed. But we can insert more checkpoints if it would make it better. We would like to hear what you think on this, so we know how to best address the problem (and if it really
is a problem, most importantly).
Regardless, I'd like to say a big thank you to the community for the support so far, with your fanarts, your screenshots, comments, and specially for sharing it with your friends. Light Apprentice is a love project and it has come a long way, and we surely appreciate you for welcoming the game on Steam so warmly.
