Body modification incoming
Most of the development work at the moment is going into delivering the long-awaited body modification update, which is currently in testing. However, we're still putting out new content and fixes in the meantime. Part of the push for background work at the moment is improving cards you see regularly (especially towards the beginning of the game) more interesting. This includes things such as implant and temperament cards and regular in-deck locations such as A coffee stall. Depending on the card, you might see more options, small semi-randomised cycles of content on the card and more random events (the last especially at specific locations).
As for the main body modification update, this is very close now. Probably next week.
Accessibility
We've also added some accessibility improvements, in terms of more keyboard shortcuts for navigating and playing open cards (you can see the full list of keyboard shortcuts in the main menu). The long term plan for accessibility is still to implement a console interface for typed commands, but in the short term we're planning on adding more smaller tweaks and shortcuts. Near future plans include:
- Full shortcut-accessible descriptions of the requirements for playing each branch of an open card.
- New interface for bundling items (this will be generally better anyway).
- Better keyboard navigation for the main elements of the story tab.
