Howdy folks!

Happy New Year! Sorry for the somewhat late release of this patch, this took a lot longer to get out than I thought, but hey, it’s here! It’s not 2019 yet for me at the time of writing this, so I’m in the clear!

2018 has been a very busy year for me personally, juggling real-life ambitions along with DF and other secret projects on the side has kept me occupied! Overall I think it’s been a great year though, and I hope you’re all ready to join me and the rest of the team in 2019 as we start pushing out the final releases of DF!

Speaking of those final releases, Chapter 1 has been going great, old assets are being replaced with really high-quality stuff, and the new multiplayer is shaping up nicely. Right now my goal release period for Chapter 1 is sometime in February 2019. That might seem like a while for some of you, but it’ll be worth it, I promise! As for the other chapters, I plan for Chapter 2 to be completed by Summer 2019, and for the last chapter, Chapter 3, to be completed by Winter 2019. After that, the game will technically be finished! I’ll likely put out a few big multiplayer updates sometime after Chapter 3 drops, and then that’ll be it!

For now though, I hope you’ll enjoy U14P5 while you wait! Here’s the changelog:

• Added a new PVP Invitation system. You can now click on another player and select “Invite to PVP” (or use the regular method), type in their name and then an invite will be sent. After that you’re free to continue what you were doing until they send an invite back, in which case the fight will automatically begin!

• Added new unused content to look at and listen to in the Extras menu.

• Added the ability to run. Hold down [X] or [SHIFT] to go faster! Running will make the encounter rate quicker while grinding.

• Added a “Forgot Password” option to the Main Menu.

• Skin LV is no longer required to use certain skins in PVP. Play as whoever you like!

• Made adjustments to the look and layout of the Village so that the entrance to the Lost Woods is a bit more obvious.

• You can now play the “Papyrus Simulator” fight as many times as you want.

• You can now replay the regular Impossible Mode even after completing it.

• “Reset” and “True Reset” are no longer options on the menu. As soon as you login you’ll be at the mode selection screen.

• Changed the CELL menu so that it displays the max LV as 20 instead of 9999. If your LV is 20 or above the text will display as yellow instead of white.

• Changed the Skin menu so that it now gives a brief description of the character and also assigns a TIER to them based on their skin LV.

• Changed the main menu design that’s unlocked after beating the finale.

• Changed encounter rates to be higher.

• Removed the Stone Monuments from the Lost Woods.

• Fixed a bug where sometimes after logging in you would be placed in an old testing area.

• Fixed a bug where the game crashed by opening the CELL menu in Special Mode.

• Made a final attempt to fix the issue where the game appeared very pixelated on some computers. Let me know if it’s resolved!

Anyway, I’m going to go spend the final moments of 2018 with family, so thanks for the amazing 2018 everyone, and I’ll see you all in 2019!
