We’ve just dropped an important new update to the Claws & Chaos demo, introducing the new Monkey Family, cosmetics to customize your creatures and battlefields, localization for a bunch of languages, adjustments to the economy, and a ton more.
Before we get into the specifics, we have a cosmetic sneak peak to share…Starting today, check out the OTK Network crew of streamers to catch a glimpse of their very own in-game creature skins - Asmongold as a Raccoon, Sodapoppin as a SlimeCat, Emiru as a Rabbit, and more! These skins aren’t in the demo for everyone yet, you’ll have to wait a bit longer to get your hands on them.
Here’s everything new in demo version 0.30.10:
