ITCH PAGE
this is just for the demo but theres an itch page now!! yay!!
https://weezerofficial.itch.io/darkest-descent-demo
general changes
completely reworked text formatting to hopefully fix a lot of the issues it was having hehe
a lot of minor tweaks to the text font, many more characters should display properly in game now, people with strange steam names rejoice!
entirely rewrote intro/tutorial, added a bit more text to explain some mechanics
decreased enemy scaling slightly i feel that it was a bit overtuned in the last update
added in battle dialog, jane and some foes will now speak during combat encounters
updated several sprites, most notably brilliance runes because i thought they were really Ugly
save files have been RESET, version number added to saves, outdated saves are highlighted and probably wont function correctly but you can keep them just in case!
game version number, wins, and highscore have all been added to the settings menu, this will likely change in the future i just wanted to put them somewhere for now :)
bug fixes
save slots no longer incorrectly display after being deleted
text no longer floats strangely or runs out of the text box due to the aforementioned rework
overclocked effect should now function properly
a few skills didnt behave correctly so i fixed those all
