I Am Overburdened, 1.0.8 what took me so long?!

Hi everyone!

I know I mentioned that this update will be ready early this week, but I went a bit overboard with my ideas and making the new content took longer than expected.
Good news is, that this build has crazy sick new items and item skills :) !
I hope it was worth the wait.

Changes

  • 7 brand new items! Most of them have new never before seen skills too and I'm really excited about those. They will allow more varied strategies/builds and different ways to play the game :) . Extra kudos for Snake eyes for helping me in fixing some pesky bugs, here it is what we talked about ;) :
  • A tiny ease-of-use functionality was added to the pause game menu. If the player stands nearby an item (revealed item pickup, opened chest or shop item) the "Tome of Artifacts" will open on that one. This way if you unlocked an item before and you find it in the shop you can check its details in a few steps. Special thanks to Oscar and neutonm for their suggestions.

This list is relatively short, but the game has some really fun new stuff. I'm hopeful you will like it and it will keep you entertained in the dungeons of I Am Overburdened until the next updates ;) .
A little sneak-peek into the new stuff:

What comes next? I can promise more updates, but most of the entries on my task list takes longer time than a day or two. The first thing to arrive will be Trading Cards! I would love to deliver bigger updates too like the "save and continue later" feature and mouse support, but both of them is around a week-long work if not more, so I have to ask for your patience regarding these changes :) .

+ I'm open for voting too! If you would like to vote about what bigger features or what type of new content should come next feel free to chime in with some comments ;) !

Oh, and before I forget, if you believe I Am Overburdened deserves a Steam award don't hesitate to nominate the game ːsteamhappyː .

Stay tuned!
