With version 0.3.1, the game becomes even more alive ✨
You can now encounter potential allies directly during combat.
Throughout your journey, you’ll sometimes come across unique characters.
👉 Before the fight, a dialogue triggers, setting the scene and giving more personality to the encounter.
👉 You must then face them in battle: they won’t join you without a fight!
👉 Defeat them to recruit them and add them to your team.
This new mechanic adds more narrative depth, more surprises, and more meaningful choices, making the world feel more dynamic and unpredictable.
I hope you’ll enjoy this new feature. I really enjoyed building it and seeing it come to life in the game!
