PTB Minor updates & 0.3 preparations - PTB.0.3.0.7

Greetings monarch, kings and queens!

Today is Silksong day we bring you a small update for the PTB, fixing some issues and adding more features that will be finalized next week, with our Major Update (don't tell anyone but it should come on Wednesday!)

Note that PTB saves are not compatible with the main build.

Please let us know your thoughts!

In preparation for 0.3

Due to several changes made to the structure of the game, narration and progression you 0.2 saves will not be compatible with 0.2.

With 0.3, we will release a special 0.2 branch so you can load your saves and visit your old city.

• You can find your savegame in {disk}:\\Users\\{username}\\AppData\\LocalLow\\Irregular Shapes\\City Tales\\saves\\{steam_userid}\[/i]

  • Each folder with a number is a save slot with 0 being your autosave

Public Test Branch (PTB)

• To be safe, make a backup of your savegame before playing the test version:

  • You can find your savegame in {disk}:\\Users\\{username}\\AppData\\LocalLow\\Irregular Shapes\\City Tales\\saves\\{steam_userid}\[/i]

    • Each folder with a number is a save slot with 0 being your autosave

      • Public Test Branch will have its own save folder

To access the public test branch

• Right-click on “City Tales - Medieval Era” > Betas > in “Beta Participation” select “Public Test Branch”
