Playtest version 0.21.0 now live

Thank you to all who have helped us playtest so far and given us your feedback in one way or another!  We are pleased to share with you a new version of the playtest, playable in-browser as before.

Changelog

Bigger changes:

• New caravan selection UI, with improved presentation and new icons
• The first idle animations: idle enemies now express themselves via dramatic sword-waving
• New text events, including a new category of event: hazards that you can counteract with your skills
• Tooltips throughout the shopping and caravan selection UI, including equipment stat comparison

Other changes:

• Map generation revision to balance opportunity locations and the player's need to complete the plot
• Title screen visual updates, including buttons and background
• Caravan end screen visual update
• More tips in the cycling tip popup
• Fix to a map saving/loading bug

Additionally, we adjusted the "viewport" here on Itch.io so that no one should need to hit fullscreen in order to play.  This means that the Escape key will open and close the pause menu as it was always intended!

As before, please send us feedback at the following form:

We already have a list of improvements to make for the next version and are hard at work.  We continue to update, and we continue to value your feedback.
