Sculplings News

[p]In this update:[/p][p][/p]

• [p]HALL OF FAME: After defeating a member of the Big Five, the team you defeated them with will now be forever memorialized in the HALL OF FAME! You can access the hall of fame in the hub world. Note: This is a new thing we're only just starting to track with this update, so unfortunately any player who has beaten one of the big five already won't have their previous team saved and you'll have to beat that opponent again to get them in the Hall of Fame. [/p]
• [p]Wishing Well Event: There is a new event added to the pool of possible events you can run into[/p]

[p]Bug fixes: [/p]

• [p]Fix broken wizard event[/p]
• [p]fix pp depletion not working properly with opponent monsters[/p]
• [p]Fix leaving and entering shop exploit[/p]
• [p]Fix spikey swap pin keeping dialog box on screen[/p]
• [p]A bunch of other small tweaks and fixes to small visual bugs[/p]

[p][/p][p]Next up: At this point we're pretty much just focused on bug fixing and QOL improvements, continue to let me know if there's anything you want added to the game and I'll try to add it in before launch! [/p][p][/p][p]Price Increase: Since the game has all the content we plan to launch with, I'm planning on increasing the price to $11 next week after the Winter Sale (probably on January 5th). The final price of the game at launch will be $12, so you'll be able to get it $1 cheaper while I work on fixing the final bugs in the game. Let me know if this seems unreasonable. [/p]

• [p]We are wrapping up development on the game, so if you have any QOL features/ general game improvements you really want to see please let me know now either here or through the in game feedback button!

[p][/p][p]Next up:[/p][p]- I'm working on improving the sound design throughout the game, still lots of missing/unpolished sfx. I'm hoping to have most of this issue fixed next week :)[/p][p]- Event additions: We're working on some final new events and adding more depth to the events that exist already. [/p][p][/p][p]Thanks for the support![/p][p][/p]

• [p]KING battle rework: King now has multiple abilities throughout his battle, along with more advanced AI and new move sets for his monsters. This is meant to make him more difficult without just lazily raising his stats. Lmk what you think![/p]
• [p]More powerful basic moves: many late game basic moves have had their power drastically increased to make them more viable against the final bosses of the game(without making those bosses too easy) A few more to come[/p]
• [p]Defense rework: I have reworked some final evolution monster defense stats to make them more useful at final boss fights. I want to avoid a dominant strategy of only having one real tanky monster and make some of your other monsters more viable in late game fights. This will be an ongoing thing I will tweak but it's a start!, let me know what you think :)[/p]
• [p]Fix 'Endless Strike' move[/p]
• [p]Fix shiny starter sculplings not being added to glossary properly[/p]
• [p]The final apple shop(right before Big 5 boss fights) now have some more set items instead of all of them being random[/p]
• [p]Fix 'Glowing Apple' not working[/p]
• [p]Fix Softlock at 'Butte Monstrosity' fight[/p]
