Hey everyone! 👋
A huge thank you to everyone who has played the demo and shared their thoughts. Your feedback is the engine driving this game forward and today’s update is a direct result of your suggestions.
I've got some game-changing features in v0.5 that I can't wait for you to try!
A New Visual Direction (Feedback Needed!)
You’ll notice some significant changes to the game's visuals in this version. I am currently testing a new art style and your feedback here is absolutely critical. Does it feel right? Is it clear? Please let me know what you think in the comments or on Discord! Your opinion literally helps me shape the world of Lootbane and I want to make sure we’re heading in a direction you love.
Key Features & Mechanics (New Playable Character - Wizard)
The Skill Tree: Say goodbye to the random "3 options" on level up. You now earn Skill Points to invest in a dedicated Skill Tree, giving you total control over your hero's build
Item Crafting & Merge Preview: Crafting is here! We’ve also added a Merge Preview so you can see exactly what you’re creating before you commit
New Hero: Wizard: The arcane arts are now at your fingertips. Choose the Wizard and unleash devastating spells
Overworld Events: The world feels more alive! Discover special events that grant Gold or extra Skill Points and try your luck at the Coin Game, which has moved from the city to the overworld
Quality of Life & Improvements
Journey Log: Keep track of your progress with the new Journey Log in the Overworld
Post-Mortem Analysis: If your hero permanently dies, you can now review the Combat Log to see exactly what went wrong (and learn for next time!)
Stash Organization: Added a Sort button to the stash. Your inventory has never looked cleaner
Better Controls: Added a Pause Button and improved the Hero Selection/Naming flow
Sound & Music: Refined management in the options menu for a better audio experience
Memory: The game now remembers your last selected difficulty when creating a new hero
Keep the feedback coming!
Every bug report and suggestion helps me make Lootbane the best it can be. Dive into v0.5, check out the new visuals and let me know what you think overall
