Got a lot of cool new stuff done for this one.
I've been thinking about for a long time about ways to make the game encourage players to experience multiple endings and to do many different playthroughs.
The achievement system is something that I fell will help a lot with that. Every achievement will give you a new ability in your next playthrough that will boost your EXP and Essence gain.
I'm really excited about the new tutorial too! I tried to blend a tutorial with a real fight as much as I could, lemme know what you think!
Release Notes 0.6.0:

Every achievement will give a new ability in your next playthrough.
