Features

• Auto Adventures

  • Auto Adventures no longer tick based on real-time. They now tick in game time by completing Manual dungeon encounters or using the new Fast Forward button.

• Fast Forward

  • You now have the option to Fast Forward the in-game time in order to progress the game without having to run Manual Adventures.

  • A new threat indicator has been introduced called FF Invasion Threat Indicator. As time is fast forwarded, there is an increasingly higher chance that an Invasion will strike a random town and you will forfeit your chance at stopping it. The different levels are: None, Low, Medium, High, and Imminent. Use FF wisely!

  • The FF Invasion Threat Indicator can be lowered by defeating monsters in Manual Adventures.

  • Invasions still occur normally in the game if Fast Forward is not used.

Gameplay

• Endurance has been raised to a max of 1000 to allow for better scaling. You will most likely need to Fast Forward the game a bit in order to get Endurance to cap out from the previous system.

• Endurance bonuses from the Castle, University, and Allegiance have all been raised to fit the new Endurance model.

• Raised the bonus Fitness provides in the University from 3 to 30 per point.

• Minibosses and Bosses have recruited better monsters to help them in battle, beware!

• Deadly monsters, minibosses, and bosses have had their damage increased by 15%.

• Introduced a simple implementation of trained University courses in Character menus.

• All %HP regen items have been rolled to a new flat Health Regen stat.

Art

• World Map

• Every Town and Adventure location now has a hover glow and title to more easily identify the location.

• A smooth transitioning day/night cycle was added to the world map.

• Seasonal changes have been added to the world map! Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter all have unique world map changes.

• Updated Barbershop and Ruler Creation backgrounds to make it easier to see your Adventurer/Ruler respectively.

• Added mouseover glows to the Party Preparation scene's Adventurer silhouettes.

• Moved the mouseover glow for the Graveyard from the Cryptkeeper to the entire Graveyard.

• Added a mouseover glow to the Stash.
