general changes

  • completely reworked text formatting to hopefully fix a lot of the issues it was having hehe

  • a lot of minor tweaks to the text font, many more characters should display properly in game now, people with strange steam names rejoice!

  • entirely rewrote intro/tutorial, added a bit more text to explain some mechanics

  • decreased enemy scaling slightly i feel that it was a bit overtuned in the last update

  • added in battle dialog, jane and some foes will now speak during combat encounters

  • updated several sprites, most notably brilliance runes because i thought they were really Ugly

  • save files have been RESET, version number added to saves, outdated saves are highlighted and probably wont function correctly but you can keep them just in case!

  • game version number, wins, and highscore have all been added to the settings menu, this will likely change in the future i just wanted to put them somewhere for now :)

bug fixes

  • save slots no longer incorrectly display after being deleted

  • text no longer floats strangely or runs out of the text box due to the aforementioned rework

  • overclocked effect should now function properly

  • a few skills didnt behave correctly so i fixed those all
