Hello everyone! Here is a sneak peek at the newest major update for DA_RL, Coin and Company.
Shops
Scattered throughout the dungeon are those who do not seek to rid the world of evil but those who seek to make the most money. Shops and shopkeepers now inhabit the dungeons of DA_RL. You can buy and sell items at the shops. You can also inspect the items they are selling, but don’t try to take them out of the shop; otherwise, the shopkeeper will try to kill you.
Try not to steal from the shops
Pets
When adventurers enter the dungeons of DA_RL, they often bring their pets along with them, for some reason. These pets will fight alongside you, and they will die alongside you too. Pets have loyalty, which drains slowly every turn. To make your pet more loyal, don’t forget to feed it. A wary pet will hang back and be hesitant to fight enemies, while a skittish pet will often lose interest and wander off.
Pets will fight alongside you, pets are lowercase letters, in this screenshot the "d" is a dog
Chests and Books
Chests now scatter the dungeons, filled with items discarded by previous adventurers. Some adventurers booby trap the chests, so be cautious when opening them. You can also store your items in the chests.
Store and take items from chests
Books now also scatter the dungeons; most are gibberish, but some tell the history of the world. These books are purely for fun and, other than revealing some lore, don’t really do much. Why are there books in DA_RL, because I think books are funny to add to games that don't really need them.
Books often make no sense
MORE
There is more to the update that I don’t want to spoil, so I hope you all look forward to playing DA_RL 7.0, the Coin and Company update! As with every major update, there will be balancing changes and bug fixes. Thanks for playing!
