This update overhauls how the game handles party defeat, ensuring your progress is saved correctly even after a forced crash, and clarifies the fate of your surviving allies.
Battle & Defeat Overhaul
Robust Death Detection:
The game now correctly registers character deaths even if the application is forced closed unexpectedly. Your party status will be accurate upon reloading.
Leader Defeat Mechanics:
When the party leader falls in battle, the game does not end immediately. Instead:
- Remaining allies are given a choice to Fight On or Flee.
- Regardless of the choice, the run concludes, and the leader is reborn in the village.
Defeated Screen Update:
When the Defeated text shows, a new summary screen appears listing your surviving allies, split into two groups:
- Escaped:Allies who successfully fled the tower and are waiting for you at the inn.
- Perished: Allies who fell during the escape attempt.
Visual & Bug Fixes
Portrait Clarity:
Fixed an issue in the previous version where some dialogue portraits appeared blurry. All portraits are now crisp and correctly rendered.
Even in failure, your choices (or those of your allies) determine who makes it back to the inn.
