This is kind of an experiment since at this point in time Din's Champion isn't even in Early Access yet. Since I'm already putting together a changelist for our weekly builds for the testers, I thought this might be interesting to some people who want to follow the progress of the game more.
0.724 change list:
- now smooth the player/view movement much better
- fixed a few issues preventing monsters from digging themselves out when buried (Eric)
- doubled MonsterChancePerBlock, but quartered MonsterSpawnChance (so more spawn spots, less monsters overall, and less likely to respawn)
- doubled monster respawn underground - RespawnTimeMultUnderground
- fixed space in new world name causing issues (Eric)
- now if cursor is over top edge of a window you can move cursor changes to a different graphic
