The October update will be mostly polish and minor features. It will not change gameplay significantly. The November update will hopefully add additional replay value and other quality of life features.
What game makes single player after multiplayer? We do weird things here at Timeless Toucan. We want to make single player better, and will work on some of that for the rest of the year!

August Early Access Update + PAX West
Thank you to all who have been traversing Azoove so far. As always, your feedback on the Discord server is greatly appreciated! If you are around PAX West, you're invited to be hype with us at booth 2836, next to PAX Arena!
Starting health for all heroes increased to 4. This allows 1 damage to not be immediately answered without severe punishment. Misfortunes may now contain Injury (choice) effects. A hero must volunteer to take the damage. With the automated ally, the human player gets to pick between them.
12 new Misfortunes, adjustments and balance for many existing ones Also, rewritten ALL Misfortunes, so try reading them again (I know you stopped!)
Opportunities now have full art! They are also updated for balance and flavor text rewritten
Improved Lobby, making it clearer how to start a new match or join an existing one New camp action UI polished Added a few new tutorial-y alerts: Over-blessed, Choice Misfortunes
Preparation no longer has increased health (since it is increased by default), now has starting inspiration, costs adjusted to add to 100. Spite levels swapped and replaced to create smoother, more interesting scaling.
Fixed some bugs causing soft-locks in multiplayer Fixed many visual issues
Trinkets (what are they? you'll see) Controller support Localization
The response to the new tutorial has been great, let us know if you have further feedback.
This is a great time to get your friends to buy a copy and join you!
Azoove, the board game, is still under development! Stay tuned.
