[h2]Playtest scope:[/h2]
Just like the previous playtests, we would like the New Nifties to focus on everything from hitting play and registering your new account to abilities balance or their UI readability. If a comment appears in your mind while playing, we’d love to hear it.

For veteran playtesters, there are always improvements that are mostly happening with numbers behind the curtains, this time though, in addition to the hidden magic, you can see a major change with your own eyes 👀, The UI overhaul awaits your comments: please check the UI update notes in our Discord server to know what to look for, and please let us know what you think about it.

Hello everyone, and Happy Valentine's Day! In today's update, we're focusing on significant improvements to the user interface (UI) of The World of Nifty Craft. While we're still fine-tuning the details, I'm excited to share our progress towards a more intuitive and visually appealing design.

[h2]UI New Look:[/h2]
We've updated the look for all UIs including key sections like Inventory, Leaderboard, and Mastery. These changes aim to enhance navigation and readability.







[h2]Deck UI Overhaul:[/h2]

• Slot Unlock Progress: We've made the slot unlock progress and requirements more transparent, helping you understand exactly what's needed to access new slots.
  
  
  
  
• Abilities Organization: We've streamlined the Deck UI to display only Slottable Abilities, moving others to a new "Collection" tab. This should simplify the process of managing your Abilities.
  
  
• New Tooltips: Hovering over Abilities now displays a tooltip with key information.
  
  
  
  
• Ability Details: Clicking on an Ability now opens a detailed view that sticks around, providing information about the Ability and compatible Gear, matching this with the previous tooltip allows for quick comparisons and strategic planning.
  
  
  
  
• Crafting Insights: When crafting Gear, you'll now find detailed information about compatible Abilities and whether an Ability is already in your Deck or equipped, facilitating better crafting choices.
  
  
  
  

We're committed to improving your experience with The World of Nifty Craft and believe these UI enhancements will make the game more accessible and enjoyable. Your feedback is invaluable to us, so please share your thoughts on these changes.
