Hello!
There haven't been any patches lately and i apologize :)
Patch 27 is a big sweeping patch that i'm working on to do a few major things
New font for the game, making sure everything looks correct.
New battle cursor for combat.
New Mining, Herb, and Fishing node system.
And various fixes as well as chapter 2 launch prep.
Chapter 2 is currently unlocked in the Patch 27 beta branch, but will be re-locked once Patch 27 hits. It will then be unlocked again once i put up the Patch 28 beta branch.
The patch will hopefully be done sometime around the end of the week, possibly into next week.
