| Update | Date | Excerpt / source |
|---|---|---|
| ENEMY SPRITES HAVE HAD A OVERHAUL/UPGRADE | 2025-12-23 | *The backgrounds for the battles, and the battlers themselves got rehauled. Secondly, you no longer have to REVIVE dead teammates outside of battle zones so the next battle they wont be dead. This is done automatically for you, saves headache. *Also you can no longer jump to outside the map and be recentered - now, it wont even let you jump outside of bounds anymore at all in the first place. It stops you before the jumps even happens. |
| All Old Saves Got Sacrificed To Upgrade Game Greatly | 2025-12-10 | Don't continue any old saves. This for a couple reasons. I updated the game substantially recently. And I want you to experience everything from ground zero. Its like a new game. And also, because to implement the changes i wanted, I had to break old saves. I went and did it, because I didn't see many people playing it in the last few days which tells me I am not interupting any games. This was the perfect time to do it I think. The game looks far superior. Its 3D now, did I mention that? I added a phone, where you can get text and call people. I added Diablo-like Loot. Diablo randomized shops. Diablo equipment menus. Diablo randomized loot. |
| NEW BETTER EVERYTHING PATCH | 2025-11-25 | New 3D enviroments - YES, it's 3D NOW! 20+ new character specific abilities to keep each ally unique and fun. New balance. Random weapon drops like diablo now. Jumping. Battle drops are different now for every act. New skill and magic animations. New animations for allies both for battlers and walking. Let me know what you think! Oh, and a Diablo like equipment menu.... |
| Converted rest of game to 3D.. But | 2025-11-12 | To convert the rest of the game to 3D it required re centering a lot of maps... Meaning, where you were standing in old saves may now be inside of a wall.. BUT! It's an easy fix, go to MENU and teleport back to town. It will fix it, and this will never both you again. ENJOY THE 3D ENVIRONMENTS! |
| DID THE GAME JUST GET A 2.5D OVERHAUL? YES IT DID! | 2025-11-11 | LET THE FIRE RISE! GENTLEMEN! |
| Added more varied combat encounters, and increased drop rate substantially | 2025-11-05 | Added more varied encounters. Increased drop rate making enemy encounters more rewarding |
| COOL UI STUFF | 2025-11-05 | Added some cool ass UI shiz. |
| LEGENDARY HALLOWEEN PATCH - IN THE FLESH! | 2025-10-26 | TONS AND TONS OF NEW CUTSCENES! LOTS OF EM! In addition, there is a Movie Theater Available to watch any unlocked cutscenes across from teh gas station. New Menu Theme. Balancing changes. Updated Tutorial. Recruitable NPCs are more obvious.COUNTLESS additional quality of life changes and general improvements! Cutscenes and Artistic Meddling by Acme's #1 Customer AKA Shaw-@Zaphod_Erisberg on X BIG THANKS TO THAT MOFO! |
| Balance update | 2025-10-11 | ADDED SOME BOSS BALANCING AND NEW UI LOOKS |
| Got rid of the overcomplicated "GRID" system. | 2025-09-29 | Before you had to move to certain spots to use items, spells, or specials. And if u were in the wrong spot the ABILITY or item wouldnt be highlighted. This was confusing because this would also happen if u didnt have enough mp or tp for specials. So I got rid of all the extra steps, and now if something is deselected in menu its because u dont have enough tp or mp to cast it. Nice, simple. The game is funner this way. As much as I thought the new system made the game different, it wasn't worth it in the end because it sacrificed ease of use and fun. So I got rid of it, for you the consumer to better be able to enjoy the game. I hope you like |
| No more chibi characters if you start a fresh game. | 2025-09-05 | Got rid of the chibi characters. No more chibi characters if you start a fresh game. |
| OKAY ITS COMPLETE | 2025-09-02 | - EVERY SINGLE ENEMY IN THE GAME HAS UNIQUE DIALOGUE! AND WHEN THEY DIE THEY DONT COME BACK. THEY ALSO DROP ITEMS TOO NOW. OR YOU CAN STEAL THEM. |
| ACT 1 Fights Vastly Improved | 2025-09-02 | ACT 1 now has UNIQUE dialogue for EVERY single fight. And the enemies, once dead, never come back. So remember there quirky one liners, because they wont be repeated. Act 2-5 coming next. STAY TUNED. Probably be done VERY soon because I am commited to making this the best game it can be. |
| JIM PROOF TUTORIAL | 2025-08-29 | Fixed the tutorial, made it so simple even Jim Jesus can figure it out - hopefully. |
