May 23rd Update

Welcome to all the new challengers and champions! I hope the Arena has been treating you well so far.

News


I'm bringing along a new update for the game, which fixes a few pesky issues and adds a few new features.

The first thing to note is many core scripts have been updated, so now the game should run a little bit better on more PCs.

Achievements!


Yep, you read that correctly. I managed to get Steamworks integration to work as intended, so now I've added some very basic achievements. Just things to get for rank clears. I'll be adding more achievements along the way. As for Steamworks now being integrated into the project, you can likely expect a few extra features to make your gameplay experience more enjoyable.

New Art!


The next thing on the list is Borrel. Our fist fighting monk has been drawn by the artist Miabun. Once you clear the D Rank, you unlock Borrel as a Hire. Check him out!

AC Transfer and Collect


What else, what else? Oh yes! The Arena Coin Transfer and Collect system has been added. For a small fee of 10% of your total deposit per transfer, you can send AC across multiple save files! Here's a quick look at it:

Aside from all these goodies, there's always the patch notes to take a look at. Check them out below:
