Not much is changing here. In revisiting this game, it's pretty solid, but I think a large part of that is due to the Onitama skeleton this was built on. Below is the changelog:
- Adjusted The Champ's Chimmy Shimmy ability (He may no longer move backwards using this action). The Champ is, in my opinion, the strongest character (but only slightly). This is because his gameplan, while slower than Solveig's, is very difficult to stop, since you either have to corner him or you need to chase down his friends before he triggers his fourth Chimmy Shimmy. This update makes him a little more susceptible to Primeval Mask, but I think it makes the Solveig matchup more interesting.
- Adjusted wording on abilities for clarity and grammar; they remain functionally the same (the affected abilities are Primeval Mask's That Wasn't Me and DJ Dues' Special Request).
- Adjusted wording in the rulebook for clarity and grammar
So yeah, that's about it. Honestly I didn't playtest the Champ's ability as much as I'd like, so I may end up walking it back if I ever get the time to playtest the game, but other than that I don't see any more updates to this game. Whenever I do revisit this again (because it is inevitable), I'll probably just make an instruction video
