Hello Bringers!
The launch of ScourgeBringer's alpha has been a blast. All your feedback have been very relevant and helped us to focus on what matters.
Today, we are releasing Alpha 2.
It adds the super attack and revamps the weapon system (including new weapons and items). It also addresses a bunch of the issues you've highlighted, though all not yet, but we'll get there as we publish new updates.
Accessing the alpha: for the time being, alpha access are managed through our Discord.
You will find right after the gif the full change log!
Thanks for your support, and let's continue rocking the feedback!
Cheers,
Thomas
