We've heard your feedback and understand the frustration some of you have experienced trying to navigate the forest while avoiding those overly affectionate monkeys.

To make your journey a little easier, your friend has now given you a special map to guide you home as quickly as possible.

We've made updates to the map and the map button to improve your pathfinding experience. With this new addition, we hope you'll be able to evade the monkeys and reach safety without delay!

Dear Tacticians,

Thank you to all who participated in our AMA last Thursday on our Discord server! Our Creative Director, Jinsang, and our Lead Narrative Designer, Brandon, had a blast answering your questions!

Our Creative Director answered a lot of questions like what games influenced him to create Lost Eidolons and the spin-off, Lost Eidolons: Veil of the Witch. He also fielded some questions about his favorite character from Lost Eidolons and his favorite new feature in VotW. There were also some questions on whether he would add certain features to the game and which console platforms he was planning to release on!

Our Lead Narrative Designer got many questions regarding the story and characters of VotW. He was asked how he comes up with character ideas and designs and why we left some story plots unanswered in the original game, Lost Eidolons. He even answered how the story of Lost Eidolons: Veil of the Witch is uncovered, as the game does have some roguelite elements to it.

If you want to read up on their answers, check out our Discord server and read within our #ama-questions channel! We have left up all the questions and answers for our members to read, in case they missed the AMA live. The winners of our giveaway from the AMA session will also be contacted soon, so keep an eye out for that!

Thank you all again for your questions! We really enjoyed our time talking to our Tacticians and hope that we can do more of these in the future!

Best,
ODS Kangaroo
