With this update there are some options in terms of resisting enemy De-buffs and statuses some players have found these too oppressive. In addition Willpower and Ward did not resist Status Cards at all that's been fixed in terms of this update! There are more sources of gaining Ward and it should feel better to have Companions in your party. The trinket total is at 97 too! Almost reaching my goal of 100.

GAMERS! the Demo is out!

I've launched the Demo I "completed" most of the original checklist and more! -General- > Main Menu Fixes > Cascade Updated settings window to other scenes > Hints Update > Limit Journey to Second Floor > Localization > Achievements > System messages i.e. loading Revamp UI > UI Pass > Statistic Serialized File -Quests- >Make sure can fail -Demo- > Create page > Create Build > Launch! steamhappy In the last update I took stock of content and noted that we didn't have enough events so I've started the Events update along with the demo I've added 8 New events! Some of these come with their own unique enemies, trinkets and cards! One event had about 16 new trinkets associated with it! I wonder if you can figure out how to get them all!? One of them is really OP a real game changer.

-Demo Version is 0.6305-

Here is what else I added: -Polish/Changes- >EVENT: Agent of Obradin scales with floor >EVENT: Ring Trader event added >EVENT: Quest Board >EVENT: Mystic Mirror >EVENT: Golden Boar >EVENT: Dark Guild >EVENT: Witches Cauldron >EVENT: The Madman >EVENT: Placeholder sprites >TRINKET: Lantern >COMPANION: Level Up Dialogue for Companion Bugfixes: > Fixed in town item bonuses applying incorrectly > Fixed smith cost window tooltip overridden by inn window > Quality of Life quest buttons cancel reward window > Upgrade card on smith minimum cost as there are a few things that can reduce cost > Fools Gold functions properly refactored trinket ID > UI overlap with Event Window > UI overlap upgrade card with companion panels world map > Deck button change title to name of companion properly > Upgrade window destroys temporary cards > Unique events and event node support unique events properly >Revitalizing Potion - heals more than 1 hp > Consumables on world map can target companions proper secondary menu presents itself > Fixed a Unity Crash with invalid type being assigned to enemy block text

What's next?

> More content - the Events update continue focus on events update we added 8 events so the total is 19 my goal is to have 30 and a stretch would be 50 > Add 2 New Player Classes (sadly these won't be in the Demo) > Guild Master > Paladin > Add More Companion Classes > Bug fixes! Bug Fixes! And addressing Player feedback from Demo! Please leave me some I really want to know what you think. Thanks and Happy New Year, Merry Christmas and Hope you all have a great 2025!

Hi Gamers, I've made a return to YouTube posting my first Devlog in 4 years! Oh dear! Please give it a watch. [previewyoutube=HITxjyLNdZQ;full][/previewyoutube] I've been working on the demo for Little Adventure Tale here's the progress so far:

• fixed settings for Borderless, Full-screen and Windowed!
• preparing for another UI cleanup pass having obtained some new buttons and panels to spruce up the game
• added bug report and feedback button
• begun work on moving settings window throughout each of my scenes

Next:

• Spruce up the tow's UI
• Focus on localization of in game cards have not tested all of them yet

Future:

• More content looking to do an events update!
• Polishing - I need more sounds
• Tracking and fixing bugs

Reminder on stats for the game currently:

• cards280
• relics78
• events12
• companions6
• potions33
• player classes3

We need more things!

We Launched on Steam! Yay! steamhappy The game has come along way - I will share more on a YouTube video I'm planning to make hopefully by this weekend! My next goal is going to be: Getting a DEMO going its good for people to be able to try the game before buying it but I've got some things I need to clean-up first: Fix Main Menu

• >Run in background - not sure what this setting was just copying Knock on the Coffin Lid that had it so need to remove that.
• >Fullscreen - can't work out how to get borderless going with my Untiy Version the game is in.
• >Controls and General Button
• >Fix extended latin characters
• >Fix background image tiling - my clouds on the main menu have an annoying line that does not tile at a certain point!
• >Add bug report and feedback - I've got a button that links of to a google form pretty rudimentary

General

• >Cascade Updated settings window to other scenes - so I've got a bare bones settings menu on my other scenes other then the main menu that needs updating
• >Put an easier place to change language settings - its hidden in the settings menu as a dropdown probably not the best UX
• >Tutorial update
• > Hints Update
• > Throttle game - don't let them onto the third floor
• > Localise Demo Completed and word Demo
• > Achievements - I aught to finish these up I plan to have 20 to start with the rest will be stretch goals to add in
• > Leaderboards - Need a highscore and fastest time leaderboard going and players can post their score sort of thing

Statistics Transition statics from Prefs to something else - something that works with steam Cloud saves rather than Playerprefs that comes with Unity that's tied to your machine. Audio Steam achievement sound Quests: Make sure can fail make sure completed listed Check they add to Leader board scores for particularly difficult quests for example - Certain Doom Tune up UI? Combat > In-Combat tooltips - I've recently added localization to my game it was quite an effort and still ongoing there are some cards I need to clean-up the non-localized and localized tooltips for. I've focused the last 2-4 weeks on that effort so hoping to work on something else! But its mostly done now. Deprecations: > Cheat's Menu - this is back from when the game was on WebGL I needed a way to retain data between updating the game build - giving player's cheat codes they can enter was the approach that was quick to implement - that's going away now but may make a return in the future > Patch Notes - I don't need to have them in game potentially as I can just post about them here - reasoning for this is I have to localize the patch notes that might be easier to do elsewhere rather than the game itself since I implemented my own localization which was quite challenging! Future Goals for the Game once I settle the above: After dealing with the above bits the next things I want to work on are adding more content Current counters are: Cards: 280 Relics: 78 Events: 12 Companion Classes: 6 Player Classes: 3 Potions/Consumables: 33 My enemy variety is pretty good - can always add more and I certainly will but we're lacking in the event department so going to look at increasing that by allot more!
