Return to Work

Good evening everyone! 

Have you had great holidays despite the strange year we left behind? We've been taking it easy, not meeting to many people - in fact, me and Fred and Fred's brother (whom he lives with) decided we wouldn't go anywhere and risk getting or spreading the virus, so we celebrated christmas and new years together on the island instead!

Today we got back to work, and the first thing we decided on doing is having a meeting to discuss our upcoming patches! 

There are three big patches left, one featuring the final story mode stuff (except for the ending bit), where we'll add the last bunch of backer items, some arena stuff (making you able to rebattle bosses in the arena + some bonus challenges), adding a fight with bishop and the cave where you can track your progress on how many cards you've found (as well as getting a special item once you've collected them all). 

The second patch will involve Arcade Mode, where we'll be reworking the challenge rooms to make them a bit more fun and varied, add a proper map so you can track your progress, adding a proper room to end your runs as well as a final boss battle featuring none other than the goddess herself, Grindea! We're also gonna make sure we feel each run is varied enough and possibly add more types of rooms to make sure each new run won't get too repetitive. 

The third and final patch before proper release is the Main Story ending patch, where we'll add the final dungeon, both endings and both final bosses (the version of the battle you face will depend on whether it's the default or true ending path you're on)! It's possible we'll save the final battle of Arcade Mode to this patch as well, so both endings come out at the same time. 

We're aiming for the first patch to be done by the end of March - however we're not sure whether this is actually realistic or if we're just being hyped after having some time off for two weeks! Regardless, we'll do our best to make it happen :) 

Stay tuned for our continued progress as we head into this new year together!
