1.2.8 - Getting too hard to word this blurb differently than the image

The game has a brand new Finnish localization by Minilammas. Thank you!

Again, there were some mobile-specific QoL tweaks that should be invisible on desktop, but let me know if anything behaves weirdly.

new: Finnish localization
change: other tiny localization updates
change: main menu homepage button replacing the gaudier mobile-specific ones
fix: End Turn and Shogun action keyboard shortcuts no longer broken (oops)

1.2.7 - Language stuff as usual

Yo!

The game has a brand new Bulgarian localization by Christiyan Zhechev. The Japanese localization was overhauled by Lunalia. Thank you so much!

There were also some quality of life tweaks, but they mostly relate to other platforms and should be invisible on desktop.

new: Bulgarian localization
change: Japanese localization updated
change: some other small localization tweaks, thanks to everyone who contributed! sorry, I lost my list this time around
change: another new button in the main menu, I wonder where it goes

1.2.5 - ...and more!

Yo!

The three weaker characters are getting buffed.

The Pawnbarian is getting a pretty significant buff of two extra upgrades in his starting deck. He wasn't necessarily the weakest of the bunch, but he's the face of and the introduction to the game, so the power level was less than ideal - especially given that you need to win with him to unlock all the other fun stuff.

The Knight Templar is getting a single extra upgrade.

The Capyzerker is getting a smaller nudge - his two Knights are retired and replaced with the strictly better Bears.

There was something else... it felt important, but I seem to have forgotten. Something to do with... humanoid robots? Huh? No idea.

change: a new button in the main menu, I wonder what it does
change: Pawnbarian starts with an extra Cardinal Splash on a Pawn
change: Pawnbarian starts with an extra Shield on a Pawn
change: Knight Templar starts with an extra Shield on a Knight
change: Capyzerker's Knights are now Bears
change: on first launch try to set the game's language to system language
change: on first launch "New Game" goes directly to dungeon select with the tutorial selected
change: social buttons now follow brand guidelines so I don't have lawyers out for my blood
