Planned release: 06/27/2025

This is the last dev update before v0.0.2 drops next Friday.

A new job has been added, along with a bunch of new items. Some are tied to the crafting engine, while others are future tools for the upcoming fight engine. I’m aiming to finish the fight engine over the summer, so look out for it in either v0.0.4 (August update) or v0.0.5 (September update).

Your first fight will happen in one of the new districts added this week. The city keeps expanding—three new districts are now explorable. One of them, Sun Fortress Military Base, is currently off-limits. In the future, you’ll only be able to enter it if the government views you favorably or if you lay siege to it. Winemaker’s Haven is known for its grapes, but its proximity to the forest and the bandits who sometimes hide out there makes burglaries a regular threat.

Evita was the site of brutal fighting during the civil war. The locally recruited garrison soldiers switched sides to support the workers’ brigades. The military crushed them. Now, ruined buildings still stand as quiet reminders of their last stand. The new government left the area to rot — partly as a warning to residents: even with the amnesty, you'd better watch your step.

Finally, I’ve begun a new questline that doesn’t rely on the fight engine, so the story can keep moving forward. I’ll wrap it up next week so it can be included in the update. I’d love to say more... but sometimes, it’s best to keep your mouth shut!

Have a great weekend!
