Hotfix 0.0.40

Changes:
* Reduced the Health of all enemies by 50%
* Repenters Damage (50 to 25)

In the previous update (0.0.39) we disabled card storage in the sacrifice area.

The full game is currently in development and we are using this opportunity to experiment with gameplay changes, this means that the player experience might change from update to update.

This doesn't mean that the card storage functionality is gone forever, It may return either in its previous form, or as a character ability. We are just experimenting to see how the game feels without it.

Personally, I'm excited to hear what you think about the change. There are many reasons why we are trialling it, but I'm hesitant to list them here because I don't want to create a bias towards or against the change.

One thing that is obvious is that it makes the game harder, that's not the intention of the change so we have reduced the enemy HP to hopefully mitigate that aspect.

Please let us know what you think of the game without the storage mechanic in play. Your feedback is really appreciated.

The best place to give direct feedback and have a discussion about the change is in the discord. (I'm in there all day and try to be as active as a solo developer can be.)

Thanks for all your support,
Stevie

I was watching a twitch stream over on GameLuster last night and I never noticed how much of the dialogue has been entangled with both American and British terminology! As the game is set in the states and I happen to be a UK citizen, there was a large number of Mums I'd managed to unintentionally sneaked in without realizing.


- Changed all the Mum, Mummy words into Moms and Mommy's.

- Capitalized all Dads, Daddy, Moms and Mommy.

- Changed the Accident and Emergencies sign at the hospital, into the Emergency Room.

- Added animated arrows above the subway, it's actually surprisingly easy to miss and has been mentioned a couple of times.

- Added two syringes on the subway train.

- Added the word battery on the graffiti at the hospital. It's a nightmare to collect them and I hope it will help people in the future.

- Big change! You no longer have to use the syringe to refill running stamina, it will recharge by itself after some time. To balance this, I made the stamina bar deplete quicker and made the recharge time more than 10 seconds. It's just so players don't run past the whole game but are able to escape tricky situations when required. Syringes still work as a refill.



I don't have opportunities to watch playthroughs to be honest, there's not that many videos out there but they do help me tremendously. I am making a new game at the moment (Still a long way off) and I'm thinking of getting testers to record their playthroughs during the development stage to see how they play.

Keep you all in the loop :D

This update includes:

• ICs can be connected to each other multiple times
  
• Timer works properly
  
• Controls menu updated
  
• Sprinting is now double tap W
  
• Minor and internal UI updates

3 New Games have been added to gamify the language:

Jigsaw Puzzle - Shares same card library as memory template

Fetch - Play fetch with a German Shepherd. Use the fetch command and click the ball to throw it.

Hidden Object 3D - A 3D version of iSpy/Hidden Object game

Please email if you are having any troubles or concerns.

In version 1.2.2 I fixed a small bug that prevented obtaining the "Captain" achievement. You need to play Larisa's scene again with both options to get it. Thanks and sorry.

As you know, we'll announce our next expansion at ExileCon 2023 in July, and we're also planning to introduce a new series of Supporter Packs! This means that the current Crucible Supporter Packs will be leaving the store forever. Check them out here!

Also available for a limited time is the Crucible edition of Kirac's Vault Pass, which can be purchased for points! It will be sealed away forever and replaced with new, exclusive cosmetic effects alongside the launch of the 3.22 expansion.
