Hey everyone,

We hope everyone is enjoy Steam Screamfest and having a wonderful Halloween if you celebrate.

Unfortunately we're a bit sad to announce the demo is taking a bit longer to cook in the oven than we had anticipated.

We want you to have a great first experience with the demo so we're going to need a little more time to get it just right. We plan to update next week with a definite date for the demo so please stay tuned!

Thanks again for your patience, we really appreciate it!

Hello, this is the update announcement.
We’ve raised the visual fidelity of combat and added new systems and arcade players.

The 3-hit motion and hit effects have been newly adjusted.


Impact has been strengthened, and visual feedback during consecutive attacks has been improved.

When receiving a hit, a ping and hit effect appear around the character,
making feedback during combat more clear.

Combat effects of certain classes and monsters have been improved,
enhancing screen readability and immersion.

The description of perks attached to equipment has been realigned for better readability.

Two new arcade players have been added.

A new Oath system has been added.

By choosing specific conditions, you give up certain combat advantages in exchange for increased gold acquisition.

Gameplay Improvements

• Adjusted enemy level balancing to ensure smoother difficulty progression across key areas.

• Updated overall damage scaling to create more consistent combat results between player and enemies.

• Tweaked dodge mechanics for improved responsiveness and better timing feedback during combat.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed several minor issues affecting performance and stability.

• Resolved inconsistencies with certain control settings not saving or applying correctly.

• Corrected timing discrepancies in multiple puzzle segments to match intended challenge pacing.

GameMaker has updated, so there may be some new strange bugs introduced. The music files are also much larger now, but the music cutting problem that some people have had is hopefully fixed now. The game is still below 300mb which is microscopic by today's video game standards. It's just funny that nearly 2/3rds of the file size is music.

-Bug Fix: Blessings could appear in Voladrome's event even if they are still locked for story mode
