- Please beware that the new alchemist class and new pills and potions for adventure still have some issues, missing animations and the balancing might still need some changes. Setting the same skill twice also only works with different settings until you restart the game. It is playable but you might wait until the issues with it are fixed. You can test it and give feedback, though. As it plays a bit different than other classes. Itself it is probably one of the weaker classes, but has permanent buffs for all classes. It also has better scaling and customizability than other classes.
I just did that update now mostly because of that of the event statue upgrade issue with event currency so people can do that before the event is over.

- Added Alchemist as a new class for adventure. The alchemist class can unlock battle potions (only useable with alchemist) and pills (useable with all classes, effect does not work yet but you can create some of them already) and improve potion efficiency for all classes.
- Added a new zone where you can find materials for Pills. This is a rather high lv zone for people at level 300+.
- Added new drops for current enemies for new potions (useable with alchemist only).
- Added a cauldron as a new equip for the alchemist.
- Did some slight balance change for special bonuses for weapons to give more value to equip quality.
- You can now claim that newbie milestone for rebirthing even if you don't rebirth if your playtime is over 180 days. With this people who never rebirth should also be able to claim adventure and other milestones.
- It is now possible to set an active skill in adventure multiple times. This gives a bit more customizability. Please be aware that only the first slotted copy of the same skill gets bonus experience after an enemy is killed.
- Fixed some issues, upgrading the new statues with event currency and small things.

It is soon valentine again. I wish you a lovely time and even if not in real live, in ITRTG you will get some nice bonuses.

Here the full change log:

- Added a valentine event. You can start it after 17:00 UTC+1 today. I hope you have a great time. The event is a generator event again and you have 2 weeks after you start it, but you can decide when you start it with up to one week later.
This time I added Research points for adventure as an additional element. Balancing is also a bit different. As usual you can get a free pet token and a new statue from it. This time the statue boosts overflow points from new overflow challenges you complete.
- Added two more root challenges.
- You can now buy the valentine statue from last year if you don't have it yet.
- In adventure you can now save up to 5 different class with skills loadouts in the class switch page.
- I didn't come to add a new pet this time, but there will new pets before the event ends so you can spend the free token if you already have all pets.
- Fixed a few bugs and typos like usual.

- Added Scholar as new class for adventure. The scholar plays a bit different than other classes as you don't really defeat enemies, instead you analyze them, make a bestiary out of them and this boosts rewards from enemies if you defeat them with any classes.
- Along with that, I added the bestiary in a new tab, which shows all enemies which where analyzed from the Scholar at least 100 times along with their stats, drops and bonuses.
- Added new alternative images for some of the pets, which won in the contest. Discord names of the people who drew them are also added to the credits page. Thanks to all who participated! As people in general liked that art contest event, I will probably add another one in half a year or so. To make the code here easier and to add more images in the future more easy, I rewrote some code and now in general alternative images do not distinguish between normal and evo versions anymore and are all only available if a pet is evolved.
- Removed all of the remaining AI art and now the game should be free of any AI-made things. With this also sorry for the players who gave me their AI art for some of the pets and people who liked them and don't have them anymore. While there are people who like the AI-images, it also caused some hate from others and less new players who installed the game because of that. And to be able to remove that AI disclaimer on Steam I had to remove all AI-content first.
- Fixed some typos and small bugs.

- Added one more day for the art event so you have time up to sunday to submit it.
- Removed all AI backgrounds for adventure and replaced them with hand-drawn ones. As the names didn't fit with all of the new backgrounds anymore I renamed them to fit the new ones better. The zone selection also has some images now, but if you don't like that you can turn it off in the settings.
- Moved all the import and exports for various things to the settings page.
- Rewrote the offline calculation (and sim) for adventure mode. It should be a bit more accurate now. The sim also has a new setting where you can increase the accuracy for more cpu time. Not impossible that I added bugs here, though. So if you notice anything wrong, please report.
- Changed the hard cap of lv 300 for the growth increase in multiverse to a soft cap of (300 + (level - 300)^0.5) for levels above 300.
- Added a softcap for multiverse gp to level 5000. Levels over 5000 will now be multiplied with ^0.85. For example if your multiverse GP element is level 7000 at the 24h mark and have 400% bonus from UOFps, it would result into (1 + 400%) * (5000 + 2000^0.85) * 0.2 = 5639 gp/h compared to the 7000 gp/h before. There are only a few players who can reach that lv in 24h atm, but it would go out of hand eventually without that softcap.
- Added the toggle for hidden equips to the page where you equip pets.
- You can now sort pets by time with partner.
- Fixed some bugs, free exp for growing purchase, some adventure related, root related and typos, tooltips and small things.

Here the Changelog.

- Added a christmas event. It is a usual generator event, but as there are often issues with people not having time when it starts or lose time from offline, this time I made it so you start it manually and it only starts after that. You have 14 days after you start it, but it still needs to be completed within a total of 3 weeks. After 3 weeks it will be automatically removed.
- Added a token improvement for Fairy. With the improvement she will prevent a pet from dying once per turn.
- You can now purchase the christmas boots from last year with either pet stones or money.
- If you don't have it maxed yet, some of the older event equips (Candy Cane, Spectrometers, Master Gloves, Learning Coat, Creators Vest and Merry Mantle) cost now only half as much to upgrade with pet stones.
- Added a new alternative image for Aether if you beat 100 fights with the ring.
- Also a few bugfixes.
