Hello, this is NINEHECTARE.
We have made many fixes and improvements, considering the areas where we were lacking. Most of the modifications were focused on the underlying systems rather than the visible aspects.
Particularly, we faced serious data corruption issues, where fixing one bug often led to the occurrence of new bugs. It required extensive work, akin to dismantling and reassembling the entire game.
Moving forward, we plan to strengthen the character content as the main focus, based on what many players desire, rather than dungeon exploration and life-related content. We also intend to slightly lower the difficulty of battles.
Furthermore, we have reached an agreement with a cooperative illustrator, and we plan to create various illustrations that can be seen in-game in the near future. The following are the upcoming illustrations:
Agnes - Meet
Nicole - Meet
Stein - Meet
Mei - Start of Cooking
In the future, direction will be a cute-centered adventure game, and after stabilizing the build, character-specific story quests and resource gathering and crafting through non-combat areas will become the main additional content.
However, it seems that some more time is needed until stabilization, but we will try to restore the game to normal as quickly as possible.
Here are the detailed bug fixes and improvements:
