The Watcher has been available on the beta branch for about 18 days now! This patch continues balance and design work while also integrating new and polished artwork to various assets! We're still tweaking cards to improve the overall flow and have increased the Watcher's base health as the low health made non-combat interactions unnecessarily punishing. Lots of great feedback from various communities! We encourage discussion and we're most active at our Discord server but we read all the feedback in our inboxes and sites like Reddit even when we aren't responding to everything.

Art Updates

While we know that our beta testers enjoy placeholder artwork, artwork is getting cleaned up and polished as we continuously get improved card portraits in.

Details!

Some relics get polished and others get shiny assets
