Version 0.5 is out!
Version 0.5.0 is now out!
This update is mostly bug fixes and some small UI improvements, this is the beginning of the end. From now on the focus is on fixes and polish not content, meaning the game is slowly starting to come together.
The 0.5.x set of updates will mostly be fixes and game balance changes. The goal is to have the game difficulty and world generation complete, as well as adding all the customization options that people love. During this phase I'll be playing the game a lot to make sure the gameplay has just the right feel that I'm going for. I have pages of notes and over the next months I'll be making many tweaks
Currently the game is a bit too easy and melee is too strong. There are a combination of factors that make the game feel this way, one is defensive equipment is a bit too strong at lower levels, giving your party defense ratings much higher than your foes. Magic is also underwhelming, while healing magic is fairly well balanced offensive magic feels weak. One tricky issues is that monster magic attacks can feel quite powerful, so it will be hard to hit the right balance there.
