Introducing Lives ! Now you have 3 lives when you start a level and the Kyvedy Flame restores one heart each time you use it! The new mechanic is quite fun as you can use the Flame to both kill monsters and restore your life. A proper Tutorial ! Instead of having the basics explained in the first floor of Guardiah, now each time you start a new adventure you will enter the Tutorial Map for a quick tour of the game dynamics. There you will find NPCs giving you tips and once done you can access Riverguard from the World map any time you want.

A lot of quality of life improvements

In Love & Bureaucracy you will discover how Roy and Eria met, traveling in their past and.. fight Bureaucracy!

This is the biggest update so far with a total rework of combat and levels.

And the biggest news is the introduction of a new mechanic: The Kyvedy Flame!

This time combat is under the spotlight. Thanks to a nice feedback from Mardax I realized that the combat levels were too hard. So I decided to address combat and after tinkering I found a new balance and I am satisfied with the result. Now You die less.. a lot less and the overall combat feels more fluid. This patch affects only the levels where you can actually die, the rest of the gameplay stays unchanged. So this is the first patch of the "Argos Blade" and I will publish minor adjustments the next weeks to fit with the new combat. Thanks and Good run! Denis

A little update with some polishing, some art changes and One more level ? Two more books ? Yes ! There was one level in the Tower that I wasn't sure to make, so I let it out at release. Now finally the time has come to visit "The World Compass" in the sixth floor of Guardiah. There you will be challenged from Momo's eknosmachines that take care of The World Compass stopping any intruder. New mechanic ! It time to shine for Roy and Eria and in The World Compass when one of the two heroes is bind from the Eknosmachines you will switch the other and have a chance to free it. If both are "caught" is game over. Lore ! Two new books have been added to the library and you will find them in the new level. They talk about The World Compass itself and the past of humanity in the old world ! Why they had to escape ? Find out there ! This update gives me the chance to add images to the books, so that in a near future I could add more in each one. And this is pretty much all about the update ! Thanks and good run! Denis

The Boon rewire update was meant to address a problem with flatpack in Linux that was "incompatible" with the game appimage. So, while that is fixed I decided to publish the new game modes as well ! Now from the options menu you can select from "normal" and "runner" mode. The classic, or normal mode, is now the new default for the game and the "runner" mode is an hard mode for those that want to push themself to the limits.. of speed! The normal mode plays as you expect from a jrpg: explore, understand what to do, fight, progress in the story. The runner mode instead adds a time limit for any map, the timer is always shown onscreen, so you can check out how you are faring, and in some levels the mechanics are different to give satisfaction to your speed bursts! In addition The Welcoming Hall and The Merchant's Lobby have been reworked adding a new mechanic ! And that's all for the Boon rewire Update! Good run! Denis

Achievements are here along with full support of Xbox compatible controllers. Achievements You will find "An old diary" in the prism with all your achievements and if you are online they will unlock on steam too! There are 23 achievements as now, but I plan to add more in the future. The majority will be normally unlocked during your playthrough but some are challenges that you must discover. The demo has been updated as well, the only difference is that achievements unlocked in the demo won't be saved on steam until you buy the full version. Gamepads But the more juicy news is the xbox controller support that changes the gameplay making your run more smooth while using the controller. I am surprised as well as some levels are really easier when played with a controller. The analog stick does wonders in melee and Argos is kinda happy ! Leaderboard This update adds community leaderboards too, because why not challenge the world and see who's faster ? By default uploading your best score to the leaderboard is turned off. It can be turned on from the buffs page in the options menu. This setting is saved for each profile and not game wide. So you can have your leisure hero and your speedrunner profile as you like. And that's all for the "Boon tinkering" update ! Thanks and good run! Denis
