Voor De Kroon update - January 16th 2024

Hello everyone!

This update contains optimizations to the battle logic that should result in reduced cpu load. It also contains a lot of ground work needed to expand and scale the game in the future, especially related to all custom content! It also contains a variety of fixes as always.

If you experience any issues or bugs, you can report them using the ingame feedback form, here on steam or on the recently reopened official discord server.
