Beloved Rapture News

.Corrected various typos.
.Corrected an issue where Lance and Karuka are not displayed on screen for ending scenes.

General gameplay and battle balance and adjustments for version 1.0.5
.Removed HP/MP recovery after level up in "Classic Mode".

[h3]Game Version 1.04
[/h3]
Aaron here - hope everyone's enjoying the game!

We have another day's worth of post-launch fixes.

I felt slightly embarrassed to have leftover typos and glitches lingering after release.
Our testing team was extremely dedicated - but since this was a game developed over many years, with just two of us working full-time - some things slipped through.



Thankfully, our players so far have been amazing in pointing them out!
And many have made it deep into the story without major issues—so that's great news.



Additions/Bug fixes for version 1.0.4:
.Corrected various typos.
.Corrected various graphical errors.
.Fixed an issue where certain items were purchasable for 0 Gold.
.Fixed a bug that allows you to exceed level up points for stats above their respective caps.
.Fixed a bug where game can crash if loading from save point just before boss fight in Chapter 3.
.Fixed an issue where game was auto-saving just before launching a shop in Chapter 1, causing issues.
.Fixed a bug that can lower Johan's level when rejoining the party in Chapter 3 if player had leveled higher previously.
.Fixed an issue where leaving Playa Omara map before visiting Mt. Apotheo can lock the player from progressing.
.Added a "Rune" reward for catching a catfish in Jethro's pond.
.Added an extra "Rune" reward for finding Playdough in Alexandria.

[h3]KICKSTARTER UPDATE[/h3]
We finally have the full contact info for all Kickstarter Backers in hand!

Now begins the tedious process of manually sending keys out to everyone who is owed them. This could easily take a few days, emailing >800 backers while trying to run maintenance on the game.

But we'll get those keys out to you as quickly as we're able!!

[h3]WHERE'S THE DEMO?[/h3]
While there's still more bug-fixing to come, there have already been a handful of impossible to replicate bugs that have had us super stumped!

Today we came to realize that many of these bugs are likely tied to users copying their Demo saves over to the Main game! While this makes sense for a linear story, the 2 versions use different data sets, and can cause a litany of issues when they try to cross-communicate!

Until we are able to bring the Demo build up to the current standard, we are de-activating it. Our apologies for this! But it's our best course of action to stop the bug bleed. Hopefully we'll have an updated version available in a day or two - one that WILL allow you to carry over your save without issue.

Thank you for your understanding.
