Patron Build: Beta v0.0.0 (Patreon)

It's been a really long haul, but we're FINALLY here folks! Beta! All of the major systems are in, and this month we've added in the bare bones of the contests and every monster species now has a combat form enabled, even if not for both genders. The 2nd day event has been replaced with a new one leading you off to adventure, and our sprite animation work means that even if not everything is complete, we now have something to put into every single empty spot that previously existed, allowing us to implement all of our abilities and features!

The next month will be about expanding those systems, getting you guys the genodriver and Ev's last ability, and we're considering swapping out one of Ev's abilities in favor of a healing ability to make them more universally useful.

In addition to this, we've cracked the 18k barrier, and we'll be publishing our income tomorrow once we have our final income numbers. That means UrsaSenior is off probation and we're able to keep him full time, and further, that further allocation of budget will likely get reorganized. It's becoming obvious we need to hire a commission or contract based cleaner for animations to speed up the pipeline, and we also need things such as audio work, social media outreach, more writing now that we've reached this stage of development. Further, our programmers will be moving their efforts, once we've added in the last bits and bobs, to optimization now that all systems are go.

With that, thank you all so much for backing us up this entire time! We're entering Beta on the right foot I think and will be ready to expand systems fairly rapidly going forward! We look forward to seeing how the game expands and hope you are too!

Known Issues

* Reasoning for the lack of compatible is because so much changed that it is recommended to start anew.

** The contests are only partially implemented, it is more or less RNG to win them right now.
