The first free seasonal expansion to Maple Blade is out now!
Commune with the Daemon of Summer, transforming the Sage Grounds into an island chain. Rescue a bunch of lost ducklings, cross rivers atop lilypads, smoosh strawberry bushes, and unlock summer-themed keychains and hats. There's also a new Summer-only music track by composer timbyt_music! In addition to the new mission, the seven main missions can also be completed in Summer mode, adding a new layer of strategy to the main game-- swap the season anytime for an extra advantage or challenge.
This update also includes bugfixes and improvements:
Redesigned the penultimate level map procgen map
Fixed a bug where some SFX would play twice when an animal is following
Changed the weighting of the letter-grade ranking system
Fixed a bug where the mute button could advance cutscenes unintentionally
