Big Demo Update
Hey everyone!
I'm happy to announce that the Demo version just got a big update!
It includes a lot of the features I showed in the last devlog.
[h3]Some highlights[/h3]
[h3]Savegame compatibility[/h3]
Existing savegames should remain compatible, but your attributes and abilities will be reset. You have to redistribute them once you continue with this new version.
However, I recommend starting a new game! :)
