Prepping for Next Fest!

Hey Everyone!

Cauldron has been picking up a bit of steam here (heh…) during Idler Fest, and I wanted to say thanks to all those who have been following the game’s development! Your continued feedback has helped Cauldron become the game it is today, so keep it coming!

Fishing Game Balancing
Players seem really divided on the fishing minigame. For some, the fishing game is far and away the fastest resource to grind out, while for others, it feels painfully slow. I’ve been trying to think of a way to keep everyone happy, so I’m going to test out a bit of a fishing game handicap, which can be toggled by our new underwater friend, Henry!



Gearing up for Next Fest
Steam’s Next Fest is only a couple weeks away, and there’s still so much left to do! A big task on our to-do list is to update all of the character sprites, the ones used for battles, menus, etc. We’re still zeroing in on the style we want, but we’re getting close!

Included in that update will be brand new Nyx sprites! Part of me will miss the current Nyx, as I’ve been looking at her for years now, but at the same time I have to admit her hat sometimes makes her look more like a pilgrim than a witch…



Feedback
As we make these updates, I’m hoping the community will chime in on what they like and dislike about the new art. There’s still time for us to make tweaks, so don’t hold back! As always, feel free to reach out with any comments, questions, or feedback, either here on Steam or over in the Cauldron Discord.

Thanks again for the continued support!
Pete
