Upcoming Patch 0.6 Details, Upgrades and Save File Wipe + Reward in-game


Hello everyone!
First of all, thank you for supporting the game in this early state!

I've been collecting feedback and took some decisions that I think it will make the game even better.

Let's start with the bad news


Incompatibility with past Saves.

As I upgrade the game, some incompatibilities may happen at some point, I just didn't thought it would be so early. Regardless, I have learnt some stuff about it and I'll take more cautious approach on things in the future. However! I plan to compensate those who reached far, you can see more below in the good news!

Timing Attacks Removed:

These were causing me a headache to program properly, and a lot of players found it little intuitive and difficult to use.
These will be replaced by a Combo System explained below

____

Now let's go with the good news

As shown before, New HUD system, diagonal movement and movement speed increase while holding the left mouse button.  (Still testing)

Combo System

Rather than using QTE like with Timing Attacks, this time the skills will have enhanced effects based on how the player chains their attacks.

Example:

Heal: 
Heal a small amount.
Combo: If used after using Focus > Remove all basic status ailments.

Pawssion Gauge System (temptative name)
There will be a new Gauge that will fill by using Combos (it's visible in the video above with a Heart icon). This Gauge will increase its size as you gain affection and complete quests through the game.
These abilities will be an extra resource for the player.

Items:
Items no longer consumes the player turn, instead they will be set on cooldown. Upon usage the item category may be set on cooldown while others may set the whole inventory in cooldown, it will depend on the item.

When the patch will be released?
I'll release the patch in 2 segments, the first patch will likely be released on 6th August.

Skin Reward before Save Wipe

I added a Diamond NPC at Town. This NPC will give you a Password reward based on how far you got in the game and how much you completed. These Passwords will give you a Costume Ticket each. These Tickets will unlock any skin for you once the Costume Menu is available.

Goal 1: Defeat a powerful enemy in a Dank place.
Goal 2: Reach 14% Completion rate.

Just to clarify, the passwords won't be usable until the Costume Menu is available.

The deadline is August 6th (unless I delay the patch).


Thanks a lot of the support and the feedback.

To make sure I got this right, there's a save wipe for 0.6 and there should be an NPC that will give us a Costume Ticket from 0.5.3? Or does that NPC appear with 0.6?

The NPC is no longer available once the 0.6 version launched. The NPC rewards was to compensate the save wipe. The rewards are Skin Tickets to immediatly unlock a skin (once available), all skins are unlockable in-game though. the Skin Ticket just skips the requirement for the skin of choice. I hopce that makes sense. So even if you missed the NPC you can still get all the skins by unlocking them in-game.

Ah okay, thanks!

I have the steam version,  and says I have not completed a side quest? Which I am confused on? since I think I have spoken to all NPCs and It wont let me fight the black cat again even though I am max level and there star next to his name.

I am stuck at 13 percent completion, only things says are badges and that side question, I have 17 badges?

There is several things you could be missing:

To avoid spoiling too much, all I can say is.

17 Badges isn't the max.
There is currently 4 Sidequests ( 4 NPC), and one of them has 2 stages of completion.

I have done everything apart from those two things, which is why I am bit confused, do you know why the cat has a star? or can you only fight him once? Since idk if you can get to lvl 15?

So far I have interacted with every NPC I believe? so unsure what to do, main quest section done, it just those two. I will delete this message after but I on side quest section, says Sis Dojo and battle at lvl15, cant get to lvl15 due to cap and I did the 3 challenges, I have spoken too every other NPC in town?

I asume you are missing the mysterious Island. Blackjack second fight can't be done yet.
