Update 3 soon

Hi,

If you don't follow me on Patreon, it's been a while. It's been 5 months since Update 2 realeased. Update 3 is a large update, and took more time to develop than the previous ones did. In addition, I had a bit of a break from development so that extended the wait even more.

That said, update 3 is nearing its completion, and should be releasing in around a week to 10 days. It is purely a gameplay update, though. No new growth stages or scenes this time around, but a bunch of upgrades nonetheless: 

• reworked level system, split into smaller levels
• reworked gameplay loop with meta-progression in mind, no quests
• reworked cardpools
• many new cards and items
• card rarity
• permanent card upgrades through meta-progression
• permanent trait improvements
• reworked navigation system with a map
• new area and enemies 
• event encounters and new rooms

I'll keep both update 2 and 3 online at the same time, with update 3 initially being for elite subscribers on Patreon only. The whole of update 2 including Beryl is going to become public at that time. I usually only lock new characters and growth stages for subscribers, but this time around I didn't have anything else to share, but it should be exceptional. Update 3 will also initially release with a single difficulty setting, because of the more flexible system now in place. I'll monitor the situation closely in case I need to adjust things quickly on that end. I'll also try to release an offline version of update 2 shortly after update 3 is online.

Anyway, see you soon for update 3 :D
