| Version 1.1: Grid-free movement | 2021-10-04 | It's been a while, but Alvora Tactics finally gets the 'grid-free movement' treatment! Like Voidspire Tactics, Alvora had its movement locked to the grid - but now I've brought over the movement system from Horizon's Gate that makes walking much smoother. 1.1.02 Greatly improved player movement system so that it is no longer locked to the grid Fixed some secondary effects of certain status effects (such as Itchy) not being applied correctly. Increased 'Meditative' and 'Defensive' passives' bonus from +2 -> +3 defense Scholar's 'Elementary' passive now only makes positive elemental statuses last +50% longer Fixed Corpryst Hammer not being craf |

| Version 1.0.7 Patch Notes | 2017-10-17 | Time for a big patch! This one has so many changes I had to split it up into sections. The biggest changes are the new pathing indicator (never get surprised by walking into fire again!) and new journal entries with details for each status effect. 1.0.7 VISUAL Added indicators of what path you'll take during movement Facing arrows now highlight on mouseover Reorganized Skill stats on the character stats window Added journal entries for status effects Added slight pulse effect on selecting a tile for attacking or moving Damage numbers are bigger and flashier when dealing high damage http://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/image |

| Version 1.0.6 Patch Notes | 2017-09-21 | Another patch with lots of visual and controller improvements! Also a handful of balance changes - most prominently, getting KO'd a bunch in one fight is no longer so punishing. 1.0.6 Characters now only lose Max HP the first time they are KO'd in battle, instead of every time Fixed shop tooltips getting stuck in the top left corner of the screen Trying to buy an item while your inventory is full will now notify you instead of dumping it beneath you where you can't see it Shellworm now has more HP and is immune to Poison, Burn, and Decay Sage's 'Revive' now heals more HP baseline, and scales less severely with stats and ranks Increased Breake |

| Version 1.0.4 Patch Notes | 2017-06-21 | More bugfixes, and a big change this time - controller support! This has taken me a while to put together, and it's not 100% complete. There are some minor issues, listed after the patch notes, but I wanted to get it out there and get some testing done on it. Let me know how it works for you! 1.0.4 Added 'BETA' controller support! It's a little rough around the edges, but you should be able to play the entire game with just a controller now. Feedback and bug reports welcome! Added "Keyboard Control" option. When enabled, uses keyboard-specific methods of control so you can theoretically play the entire game with only the keyboard. Modified de |
