Giving our boss dog more boss bite + Sword upgrading!

Hey everybody!

Wanted to drop in to show you guys some new stuff we've been working on. We've been making our boss dog tougher with some new attacks, hammered together a sword upgrade menu, and have some new images of the hub town to show you!

Dog/Wolf/Fox Boss will put you to the test!

Eira our mythical wind shootin' creature now has better attack indicators, new phase behavior, and overall a more polished design.

Sword Upgrading

A core part of Swordcery is well...the swords! So we allow you to also spend swords as currency to receive various benefits. This includes things like sacrificing one to get a respawn, but also sacrificing one to level up another sword! Here in this new menu, you can get rid of the swords you don't enjoy and level up another. It's alot like sacrificing a 1992 Honda Civic to put new rims on your Lambo!

Talking of the town

We've also been bringing the hub town to life! Here you'll be able to spend your hard earned rogue-lite credits to upgrade Colt at the divine Obelisk, upgrade buildings, and talk to NPCs.

Thanks for checkin' out the new progress!

-Don and Mike
