Everyone got facial expressions

Arcade mode got 2 new event art pieces.

Fixed so many resolution issues.

Another big update and a lot to talk about.  Saving and loading are here!  No more having to play the whole game again.  UY1 was plagued with a bunch of saving issues that are ironed out in advance this time.  You might have to replay specific scenes to get triggers to happen, but it will be very minimal.

Combat is really here!  Is it too hard?  I think Goblin Showdown might be a little bit too hard.  I'll probably nerf it just a little bit.  If you struggle with that fight, remember that you have Adrift in the top left waiting to help you out.  He's very powerful!

Skirmish is something that I feel is important.  I want this game to have more combat, but also don't want to drop 4k words on it.  The skirmish lines will always be a very simple, cutback story that ends in some type of reward.  The reward will be sometimes an NSFW scene or cute artwork.

I'm disappointed our first new song didn't happen.  The music feels really repetitive right now, but I'm working on getting that fixed.

I did a full play through of the build, and it's both feeling really good and filled with issues.  I've got so much work to do and I am absolutely excited to start tackling it.

Combat will eventually be possible to disable, but we are probably 2-3 sprints away from that.

Whats next?

Story mode is missing one of the absolute key elements of any RPG.  Advancement!  Fights will start to drop items to upgrade characters.  Characters will start to unlock item slots giving them bigger decks.  Characters will start to level up to get more HP and the ability to equip powerful items.  I'm still undecided on exactly how the characters will level up.  Is it reach a certain story point?  Do fights give exp?  I need to think a lot about this.

Book 2 will wrap up this sprint I think.

Dane will get his hot weather outfit.

The gallery will show up.
