Big gameplay overhaul to make everything feel a bit easier to get into and fun. I've targeted some of the common criticisms including the lack of unity between the battle system and town, confusing movement arrows in combat, necessary losses, lack of progression, and limited inventory space.
everything sounds like a great update! Any plans on other characters?
That will be a poll topic on my Subscribestar for the next update. The two villain masterminds or Saucertop characters from Monster Monsoon may get added. The v4 update could be the last one for this game, that's also something that will be determined by how popular the idea of extending this game is. Starting this year I will keep a roster of unused but popular character designs for use in my future projects, so if the villains don't make it in, they may appear in some other game at some point.
Sounds great! Do hope this one keeps going.
