0-8-1b release notes!


Fixes & updates:

  • Fixed an issue that would lock the game for a few minutes when trying to enter the mall dungeon outside of business hours.
  • Updated the bouncing mushroom minidungeon and added a boss fight at the end
  • Added a new Life Shard to the caves

Last time: 

  • the first area of the caves has gotten a major upgrade!
  • more ledges keep you from going too far without the torch. a "lifestyle tips" sign reminds you of this
    • water keeps certain items/areas out of reach until later
    • a new enemy and "mini dungeon" segment
    • other cave areas have been improved too
    • made adjustments to the hotel basement so it's easier to see your character
      • also made some changes to item distribution so you go into the boss with more useful items
    • Added warp pads near stone gates in the caves
    • Added warp pads to the corporate office

    What to test:

    • Fight as many different enemies as you can at as many different levels as you can. 
      • Do any enemy movesets stand out as being too overpowered, too repetitive, or using status moves too much?
    • Try out the dungeon challenges for the hotel, mall, and warehouse. 
      • Were you able to find your way there? 
      • Was there anything that was too confusing or difficult? 
      • Was the boss fight any good?
    • Explore the overworld and caves
      • How far can you get without the proper equipment?
      • Did you get stuck anywhere?
      • Did you get lost?
      • Are there any areas that are missing something?
      • Are there any areas that look bad?
    Known Issues:
    • If you get Martin to permanently join you at the shop, the game is likely to crash.
    • Level up screen doesn't have enough contrast
    • Certain climbing ropes have glitchy behavior.
    • Some NPCs have a strange voice.
    • Some dialogue boxes appear over the head of characters and some don't.
    • Some cave areas are barebones.
    • Some items are missing icons or have incomplete icons
    • You cannot visit the Heart Rose guy at his apartment.
    • If you lose to certain enemies, the game might act like you died twice.
      • Please comment or message me if you find one that does this
    • The game may crash when stepping on certain specific tiles
      • please comment or message me if you find a spot that does this.
    • Additional party member graphics are incomplete
    • Graphical issues with some outdoor tiles & fences
    • There is a slight “jump“ as you cross over into a new area
    • Food items in the mall might appear a full tile higher than where they should.
    • If you have a weapon with a field move equipped, it can be hard to speak to NPCs on the other side of a table or counter.
      • if you are having this issue, remove and re-equip the pocketknife from the menu to make it the active weapon and nullify field moves.
