The Proteus Effect 0.9.8 Public Release (Patreon)

I’m uploading 10.0 for supporters right now, so that means it’s time to publicly release 0.9.8! In this release, a new district opens in Ogremarsh, and an old friend(?) unexpectedly arrives. Alex and the others also try to get help for their fight against the dragon by visiting a sleepy little town, but there's something strange happening there... You'll also meet the mystery fisherman who left his hat in the Dark Pits, who leads you to discover something ancient and powerful - but can you defeat its guardian?
