It's finally here!

The climb dungeon is the first dungeon in a series of linear story-based dungeons. This first version is just an early proof of concept - the bosses are there, the mechanics are there, the loot is there but we still have to tie the narrative up in-game, which will be happening very soon.

Quick update - injury

Hello everyone,

You may have noticed lately that a lot of things got updated, but I have not made any major announcements.

My plan was, as per usual, to push a lot of updates out and then do one big announcement alongside a video release for the enchantment system (and some other stuff).

However, a couple of days ago while I wa...

Item upgrade system vote

Howdy,

I am currently facing a bit of a dilemma with designing the core aspect of how the item upgrade system will work, and I think your feedback here will help me take a decision.

The general idea:
