March 5th Weekly Update

Bit of an odd week. A productive one, though! Added I think... 7? new armor types, and around 30 ish traits spread across armors old and new. Some are more creative than others, but my goal was to have a pretty good variety in that regard, you can invest heavily in your armor or just rock something with no/tolerable downsides for some free stats.

Unarmed also got some new traits; more will come as Ashley/Maya/Metatron and Brawl martial arts continue to develop, but gonna try to make it about as viable a playstyle from the start as weapons or magic.

Charisma traits also got a glow-up, they can now directly offer extra stats to allies, without benefitting you - meant to aid support and the eventual summoner-type builds.

Also got some chunky scenes for Ashley affection (she's cute) and Metatron covnersation (teaching her about monsters, beasts, and spirits - for once you get to be the expert! And the player gets to learn along with her.)

Also making great progress on various commissions; Sarah's new CG is coming along AMAZINGLY from a new artist, and the preview actually got a record number of likes for an art preview haha. New high-quality element icons also seem to have gone over well, and Ashley/Maya CGs are going nicely!

Unfortunately I uhhhh may have kinda gotten Covid pretty bad on Thursday, so the last few days have been a wash. It appears that the worst was frontloaded, I'm already doing a fair bit better, so I'm hoping to get back to work normally-ish on Monday.

Should be a Patreon beta on Monday for the current stuff.
