I just invited a while bunch of new players to the playtest and released a new update!
Build 0.03 has been released into the playtest branch. This update includes:
- A big balance pass to gaining XP and gold from battles. This is a first pass and I expect to tweak things as we go. Note that gold and XP gain for other things like events, quests, etc have not been added yet. Just focusing on battles and the overall cost of buying things.
- Gold gain from winning battles.
- Loot from winning battles.
- Dragon XP for winning battles.
- Crew and Captain XP for winning battles.
- Costs for ships, ship upgrades, and captain and crew upgrades.
- Level XP requirements for dragon, crew, and captain.
- An update to the victory screen showing all of the above as well as faction changes.
- Events respawn over time - right now there are two events, more on the way!
- Added a compass in the overhead view.
- Added functionality for the rename captain button.
- Improved look of ocean when viewing ships in the Docks or Shipyard UI.
- Updated starting breath weapons. Fire is unlimited. Others are 1 use per battle. This can be increased through gaining levels and spending skill points.
- Updated all of the UI to use a slightly different look.
- Removed ship repairing. Not sure if I am going to re-add this or not.
Thank you to everyone already participating in the playtest and welcome to all of the new folks! Looking forward to hearing your feedback!
