Greetings, Adventurers!
I’m back with a brand-new major update! We are inching closer to the full release every single day. I want to give a massive thank you to everyone who has supported the game and helped shape it with their feedback. Let's roll for initiative and see what we've added to the game in this update!
The Caravan System The long-awaited travel system is finally ready for testing. You can now spend some gold to choose your starting region before setting off on your journey. By unlocking completed regions, you can skip the early grind and jump straight into the higher-level areas.
Note: This system won't play nice with old save files. To experience this update in all its glory, I highly recommend starting a fresh run.
Crafting System Brace yourselves for some brand-new content! You can now use the crafting materials you gather on the road to forge equipment for your freshly rolled hero. Hitting the road with a sturdy set of gear and a few healing potions is always a safer bet than venturing out naked.
New Relic Rewards Let's be honest, spinning the Relic wheel and coming up empty-handed feels like rolling a critical fail. I heard your feedback loud and clear, and I've overhauled the system. You can now enjoy a much more rewarding wheel to actually snatch up some decent loot!
New Dice Mechanic Another highly requested feature is going live with this patch! If you're tired of the RNG gods ruining your travel plans, you can now spend an Action Point to take a deliberate step, making it much easier to land on the exact tiles you want.
New Potion System The inability to heal outside of combat was breaking a lot of hearts (and bones). We're putting an end to that! Healing potions, previously restricted strictly to battles, can now be used throughout your travels. Running low on HP on the road? Big fight coming up? Just chug a potion. I hope this saves a few lives!
Steam Achievements We finally made it to this milestone. No grand explanation needed here—you all know exactly what these are. Happy hunting, and may the achievements rain down upon you!
Equipment Heirloom System (Removed) I regret to announce that the heirloom system has been cut from this update. It broke the game's balance in completely uncontrollable ways. Given that we now have the new Crafting System to support you, I'm removing the heirloom concept from the roadmap for the time being.
So, that's where we stand right now! I hope this update makes the game an even better experience for everyone. Don't hold back on your feedback in the Community Hub. I'll be back in the smithy, working hard on the next patch.
See you all in the next update!
