Bi-Weekly Update #17 - The Demo is Almost Here!

[p]The demo for Souls End will be coming out Nov 28th! [/p][p]I've been putting off releasing one, trying to chase some perfect idea of Souls End but it's frankly high time I just send it, and get more people playing the game. [/p][p][/p][p]As for the work that's been done over the past two weeks it's mostly been bugfixing, polishing, and a few balance changes. Most notably I've added some variety to the Act 2 encounters, with more "mixed" encounters now being fightable. I'm currently also working on making one last "big" change to the amount of units both player unit groups and enemies will spawn, hopefully making battles bigger and more of a spectacle![/p][p][/p][p]There's still a lot of work to be done to get the game ready for the demo so here's the patch notes for the past two weeks.
