This month's update expands the world of Skyfear:
The first new entry into the arena list brings a massive twisty pile-up of coral rock out from under a shallow ocean. This was one of roughly 13 new arenas that were half-made prior to launch. Any and all feedback on Castle is welcome, as that will greatly help me understand the aspects of Skyfear's environments that make battling fun, and help me decide which arenas to pursue next and what they'll need to have.
Want to see where you stack up against others in your region? Every hour, your stats are combined to calculate a skill score, and the list is posted in-game so you and your friends can see. This feature will be highly subject to change for now, as I expect it will raise questions and ideas for ways to improve it or features to tie into it. Feedback on this feature is extra welcome.
12 new cosmetics; 8 new scales, including a new kind of scales with shimmery effects, and 4 new spines. A lot more new cosmetics are in the works, coming in future updates.
Server browser suggestions - the server browser will now generate game setup suggestions in the form of a server listing. Simply click to join and the game will automatically set up the hosting for you. This is intended to reduce friction getting into games, and intented to go hand-in-hand with bots in multiplayer, which is coming later.
Frost and Acid improved/buffed
Fixed some issues with Velocity perk
Made progress in the game's sound mixing, more to come
Store page got an update

See commit log for more (June Update collects everything between Build 264 and now, Build 269)
LAN branch has also been updated to Build 269.
A couple weeks ago I did a poll in Discord asking what you are interested in for future updates, and here's the results:
So, well, I'll adjust course accordingly. New magic types are in the works, but will need plenty of testing. Two big things also in the works are animation/dragon updates, and getting bots working in multiplayer. There's also quite a few bugs that need my attention. If you would like to participate in polls like this, please consider joining the Discord.
Hope everyone is having a safe summer, & hope you enjoy this update.
See you in there!
