Update 13 november 2022
Added 2022-11-13 04:00:33 +0000 UTCIt's finally time! The update is here and it's the biggest one yet. The game went from 58k to 84.6k words in size.
Here's a quick rundown of its contents:
- Story continuation (we're finally in the sect!)
- Meet 3 of the 4 possible Masters that may take MC under their wing.
- Martial Skills. Various super-human abilities that you can use during your fights (albeit the low-grade ones...)
- A whole new battle that utilizes most of those skills.
- A Sect Library filled with books on topics you've been most curious about.
- Free Roam. From this point onward, the game will mostly be in a 'sandbox' mode, intermixed with big missions/events that could be considered 'story-arcs'.
- One (small) mission already available.
- Finally spend your Free Exp!
The link to the demo is inside the patron-only post.
As always, probably full of bugs, so do point things out - either here or in the discord :)
Known issues/shortcomings that I'll be fixing in the next few days:
- No opportunity to train attributes directly for the time being.
- Haven't gotten around to adding new characters to the glossary.
- I was planning to 'soft-locking' attributes at Peak-Houtian, but for now there's no increase in difficulty for getting a stat beyond your Martial-level limit.
- Injuries aren't taken into account at all for now.
