The build has been updated today. Far too many patch notes to mention; new sounds, new animations, balance changes, UI adjustments, more content and of course, QOL changes to make your experience even better overall!

If you like standing around in games idling, Jimmy will have something to say about that now.
Enjoy watching Jimmy complain about not doing anything with multiple different idle messages.
If you have ideas for funny idle events, let me know!
A quick video preview back at the Old Fort region. This is using 'Story Mode', which means no battles! Normally, this skeleton will chase you around the courtyard until defeated.
Additionally, I've also considerably improved the atmospheric affects here.
The last week or so has been spent revamping almost every map with atmospheric effects, as well as scripting the 'Story Mode' aspects.
The included image shows a snippet of the over-world with clouds & rain. This smoothly transitions from sunlight.
Another revisit of one of the more original sections, this one being the underground passage to the Monument of Govel. For some reason the video amplifies the smoke effect, it is less obstructive in reality.

A WIP of how you can escape death. With a certain accessory equipped, deaths grip will not take hold the first time you should have died. This accessory state will only apply once per battle, and is reset after the battle ends.
A quick check in, everything is still going ahead! I have started a new job recently so time has been lacking a little unfortunately.
In the meantime, here is the revised village well. Rewards can be states, items, gold or nothing.

This video demonstrates the snowboarding chase section some more with the mechanics of it. You can avoid the snow chaser entirely, reaching the bottom of the slopes for the main battle. Or, defeat it multiple times on the way down for an easier battle.
