0.0.53 — 2026-09-16

Added

• A Sponsors tab on the Finances page shows each contract with its terms, requirements, current goal, and a satisfaction history that says what moved it and why.
• The Sponsors tab lists sponsors within reach of your prestige and why each one has not made an offer yet.

Changed

• An exclusive sponsor deal only blocks sponsors from the same industry and other exclusive deals, not every sponsor.
• New sponsors appear as your gym grows, so the sponsor pool no longer runs dry.
• Sponsors forget that you declined them after three months.
• Sponsor offers arrive more often.
• Sponsor requests say they are optional, what each answer costs, and that ignoring one past its due date counts against you.
• A sponsor sends an email when a contract goal fails, with the satisfaction hit.
• Exclusive offers and contracts say what they block.
• Free agent cards in the starter draft show the fighter's age.
• The date in the top bar shows the day of the week.
• The Stat Leaders email says which numbers cover only your gym, and the KO rate leader is the real leader instead of favoring your fighters.
• Your fighters and opponents who already have a fight booked show in red and cannot be picked when requesting a fight.

Fixed

• The opponent's corner now gives its fighter instructions between rounds, so corner advice is no longer a one-sided edge.
• Taking punishment now lowers a fighter's morale instead of morale only ever going up.
• Ring calls are limited to three per round with a short gap between them.
• Punches landed while watching at 4x or 8x speed no longer lose their damage.
• Simulated fights now judge fighters by the same attributes as watched fights instead of their record and contract mood.
• Simulating the same fight again no longer repeats the identical result.
• A ring call that backfires no longer switches your fighter to the aggressive or defensive game plan.
• Ring call buttons in the fight overlay respond to clicks across their whole area instead of only in spots.
• Quick clicks no longer get dropped when the game runs at a low frame rate.
• Closing the game window writes unsaved progress to the save file before the game exits.
• Play Fight no longer bounces back to the fight card while the arena is still loading, shows what it is waiting for, and reports why when a fight cannot start.
• Vacating a title no longer fails because of a title fight that already happened or an offer that lapsed.
• The contract offer screen warns before you send an offer when a fighter's standing is above your gym's, and shows both numbers.
• The game unpacks its interface again when the cached copy is incomplete, and shows what went wrong instead of a blank 404 page.
• Your gym reputation now counts toward the standing free agents check before signing, so a small roster no longer locks you out of better fighters.
• The fighter profile lists every organization the fighter is ranked in, with the organization's level next to each rank.
