I'm very happy to say that the Aether Storm milestone is now completed! Part 3 - The Shrine Update, is now live on all platforms!
This was a massive milestone but it did add a ton of content to the game: I'm really happy with where the game is at now, I do hope you all enjoy fighting the Shrine.
For the next update, I will be focusing less on game content and more on Quality of Life and on smaller but necessary features (cross-platform saves, achievements, polish, etc).
