This week's update makes battles a lot more fun. Player characters, enemies, and equips all have had their stats redistributed in a more systematic way to give battles more push and pull than they had before. You can also now choose a class for your character on a new save, with your options being Bear, Jock, Otter, and Geek. Each one plays differently, so they're all worth trying out 😊

Read on for the full release notes!

⚠️You will get the most out of this update with a new game, but your old save will still work⚠️

Last Time:

• Added a new sidequest that unlocks after the corporate office dungeon is completed
• Anger Milk: a drink that hurts but gives you heavy stat boosts

  • This means any equips you are currently wearing will be glitched out unless you remove them before updating,
