Version 1.0.14 (GET ALL RECIPES, ACCESSIBILITY, AND BUG FIXES)

It's day 3 of patching and we're making some good progress! I believe the rest of the reported game breaking bugs are now fixed as of this patch! On top of that, we're going to be sharing a roadmap of more reworks/post-launch content next week so keep an eye out for that Also, if you're liking the game and would like to support me, I would also super appreciate it if you left a review! Anyways, here are the patch notes:

Added the ability to obtain chapter 1/2/3's non-chosen Aspect Recipes in chapter 4/5.
Added the accessibility option to remove the sound distortion that you get from entering bushes.
Added the accessibility option to remove the timing gauge on skills.
Fixed issue where some users experienced "crackling" in menu sound effects.
Fixed bug that made some users not get [spoiler]Levi as their partner in Ravenside[/spoiler] in chapter 4.
Re-balanced the two harder difficulty settings to still have the same level of challenge, but with less tediousness. This was done through making the enemies' HP/Stun HP remain the same as the base difficulty, with everything else scaling to be more difficult.
Balancing tweaks for the boss fight right before you get Trust.
Fixed typos in some skills.
Added dash tutorialization.
Added first strike tutorialization.
Added bushes tutorialization.

Today's patch is a bit shorter in length, but each individual point makes up for it because the changes and improvements are massive! Would also like to say that there's not going to be a patch tomorrow unless it's super critical since it's my girlfriend and I's anniversary so I will be taking the day (mostly) off for the first time in a while! As always, if you'd like to support the game I would really appreciate it if you left a review :) Anyways, until next time! - Conrad, Lead Developer

The Outbound Ghost is an adventure RPG about helping ghosts ascend to the afterlife. The town of Outbound is, quite literally, a ghost town – a home to troubled spooks with unresolved earthly issues, condemning them to an eternity haunting their old *ahem* haunts.

Battle the past, gain new abilities, solve puzzles, and uncover the mysteries of Outbound to help its unliving residents find peace, freeing them from the shackles of their ghostly limbo.

Colourful characters: Meet a lovable cast of spooks along the way, each with their own story to unravel
Combat encounters: Unlock figments of your past personality, such as Regret, Comradery, and Jealousy and use them as party members in turn-based battles
Aspects System: Craft materials earned by winning combat encounters into badges, which can be equipped for various effects and stat boosts
A world in 2.5D: Adorable, paper-style characters inhabit a world with depth and detail to create a distinctly eye-catching visual style

⠀

In the world of The Outbound Ghost, ghosts are the embodiment of regret. Most people go to the afterlife after dying, yet those who were unhappy with their previous lives become ghosts and are forced to haunt the Earth until they right their wrongs. Of course, this is not always possible since doing this as a ghost is orders of magnitude harder than when you are a human. However, some manage to do this and are able to spend the rest of their deaths in the afterlife. In The Outbound Ghost, your task is to help others fix or come to terms with their past lives so that they can enjoy the pleasures of eternal bliss. You must achieve that for yourself too, but it's not so easy to mend the mistakes of your past life when you don't even remember them.
