Shoot, I just tested it and sure enough, the consumables disappeared after loading a save. Thank you very much, I'll fix this asap!
That's correct! You'll either need to cast a defense buff on yourself or an attack debuff on her before the attack hits. Better equipment and leveling up might help as well if you can! Having a healing spell equipped is a good idea as well if you don't have one already. Also, swapping characters does heal you a little bit!
At 2x difficulty though, she essentially deals double damage, so it's gonna be tough either way ^^
I've updated the game by the way, you should be able to just redownload it and your save should work as is! You won't be able to get back the item you lost, but at least consumables will be saved normally from now on. Sorry about that!
Well thank you for the hot fix! Another question, which you have probably answered somewhere else already, but how much complete is BE Withes? Is there like a rough estimation about when would this game come out on steam? I'm fasinated by both the quality and quantity of this game. Good luck developing!
That's a difficult question! I usually estimate about 20~25% of the content is done in this demo. This only a rough estimate though! I'm currently focusing on the chibi BE sprites which will be the target of the next big update (among other things). I don't have a clear date for the update or for the full release sadly, but I'm hard at work! As soon as I have a release date I'm confident in, I'll be sure to share it on Itch and twitter and Patreon, and everywhere really ^^
I also have an FAQ if you'd like to check it out:

But yeah, thank you so much! I'll do my best ^^
