Preview of 0.13

Hello, authorized sinners!

First and foremost, thank you for your support and for placing your trust in us <3

The past week has been somewhat rough for me in pretty much every way possible.

On the disappointing side, I tested a feature I wanted to add, and unfortunately it didn’t live up to my expectations. Still, there’s no point getting discouraged over it: I tried it, saw that it didn’t pass my quality check, and decided not to move forward with it. At least not in the form I originally imagined.

That said, the upcoming version will still be a fairly large one even without it. I’ll need at least a couple of days just to finish preparing all the sprite files, and I already have a solid list of changes waiting for you.

First, there’s the updated UI for events, as shown in the attached screenshot. It will now display the stats, perks, or other requirements needed for certain actions, while also giving more space to the event itself.

Second, I’ve been fixing visual consistency across the sprites, both in combat and outside of it. I’ve corrected pretty much everything I’ve managed to get my hands on so far.

Third, certain effects that previously had no visual representation will now actually be shown.

There are also a couple of new events, a rework of the Black Market investigation event to bring it more in line with the current game, fixes for most of the reported issues, and more.

Overall, I’m aiming to have the version ready within about a week, give or take a couple of extra days.

Starting with 0.14, I’ll begin gradually expanding the existing content — adding new levels, enemies, actions that many of you have been asking for, and more enemy scenes during combat.
