Update 0.18: Dark Dungeon
[h2]Main Changes[/h2]
[h3]Cradle of Keepers Dungeon[/h3]
World of Arkana already had majestic and dangerous dragons. Only one piece of puzzle was missing to make it an adventurers' heaven - dark dungeons. But adventurers can finally rejoyce, knowing that Arkana now has all: both dungeons and dragons!
Our first dungeon is located in Cradle of Keepers, not far from the central portal. It's quite dark inside, and one can easily stumble upon a rock or a very angry skeleton warrior, so be sure to grab some torches along the way.
Every self-respecting dungeon should contain a valuable treasure guarded by a powerful monster, and our dungeon is no different!
[h3]Ability Tree Visual Update[/h3]
Updated visuals for the background and branches of the Ability Tree.
Ability Tree visuals are still WIP, with our next goal being implementation of new ability icons.
[h3]Building Updates[/h3]
Completely overhauled the style of straw modules, and introduced two new roof types. Players can now also build a special portal that will act as their respawn point.
[h3]New Male Haircuts[/h3]
Character customization now has several new stylish male haircuts.
[h3]Health recovery[/h3]
The recipe book now has a new entry - "Powdered Herbs". Prepare some for your travels to have easy access to instant health recovery.
[h2]Other Changes[/h2]

[h3]Map[/h3]
[h3]UI[/h3]
