Hey everyone! 👋
Here’s a fresh update with improvements and a brand-new reference to BLEEDOUT! 🩸

[/p][h2]🩸 New Item: Bloodshard[/h2][p]A mysterious new shard has been added…
It’s a teaser item for our upcoming Roguelike-Idle game BLEEDOUT!
For now, you can collect it — but its true purpose will be revealed later… 👀

[/p][h2]🏆 Prestige Coins[/h2][p]Each Prestige now rewards Prestige Coins
They remain permanently and will be used for future upgrades and progression.

[/p][h2]👷 Worker Fixes[/h2][p]Workers will now correctly appear in your inventory after prestiging.
Thank you to everyone who reported this!

[/p][h2]🧱 Item Balancing[/h2][p]Several items have been reworked:
• New crafting recipes
• Better late-game value
• Various buffs and balancing improvements

[/p][h2]📌 Schedule Info[/h2][p]There will be no update next week, as I will be traveling for a family birthday celebration 🎉
The week after, I will try to deliver either:
2 smaller updates — or
1 bigger content drop 🚀

[/p][h2]💬 Keep the Feedback Coming![/h2][p]Your reports and ideas help shape Idle Life every week — thank you so much! ❤️
