Hi, So it's been quite quiet recently and to be honest I haven't worked on Lost Flame for almost 3 months (sep-nov). The reason was quite simple, a new, mentally demanding job and really bad sales were a total downer. Now I got used to my new job so I have some mental capacity to work on Lost Flame in the afternoons and weekends, also I got over the other issue, so expect some regular updates in the next weeks/months. Going back to 0.7. I worked on the update for around a month and the focus was removing tedious stuff and giving some options to protect yourself from lucky powerful blows that can land on you. With the recent changes I have managed to "win" the game as it is now, for the first time ever just a few hour ago. Content changes:

• Castle Istimid is much shorter and has more treasures worth collecting. The change is really significant, I always considered this area pretty boring and now it is no longer the case
• some new handcrafted rooms in Castle Istimid
• [spoiler]new mini boss level in the middle of Castle Istimid[/spoiler]
• I have reworked most of the boring amulets and added some new, now there are some options which can protect you from powerful blows (for example they grant you a huge temporary shield when a hit can kill, or almost kill, you)
• now the character has two amulet slots, my rule of a thumb is to save one slot for a defensive amulet and use the second slot for whatever you want
• buffed a number of rings, which previously felt bad/useless
• stab can harm the monster in the back even if the first one survives the strike
• very minor change in bandit fortress generation
• buffed a number of rings, which previously felt bad/useless

QoL changes:

• you can enable borderless mode - type "debug:borderless" in game console, type it again to disable it
• added the possibility to change some keybindings (explained at the end of the post)

Bug fixes:

• some long monster names were not displayed properly
• "The" is no longer shown for identified uniques (so you won't see "+2 The Spider's Bite")
• ring of adroit strike now works properly with lunge
• some missing tooltips, descriptions and icons were added
• fixed showing potential enchant effect for fabled and legendary items
• fixed showing potential enchant effect for shields
• fabled and legendary prefix properly affects to hit chance now
• bucklers work as expected when restoring stamina (previously they did not work in the following turn after restoring stamina from 0)
• ring of cobweb works properly now
• fixed killing enemies by poison/bleed not granting experience
• arrows can longer be generated "penetrating" (this effect was useless on them)
• Istimid stalwart now attacks properly over chests

Keybindings: If you want to edit keybindings, you can add new rows to options.config file in the game directory: KEYMAPPING skill1 A KEYMAPPING skill2 B etc. Valid values for key mappings are (skill1, skill2,..., skill0 and binding1, binding2,...,binding12) skills are by default bound to numbers, "bindings" are by default bound to f1-f12 keys.
