Post-Jam Update (Balance Patch & New Game+)


Post jam goodness!! Details below

Changelog:

  • Fixed missing equipment and skill descriptions
  • Re-balanced some of Michelle's high-end skills
  • Fixed a bug with Sarah's Earth Hammer that actually reduced TP rate instead of increasing it
  • Revamped Katina's Fire At Will skill to be more in-line with similar skills
  • Increased level-scaling of actor and enemy Spell Power to support the increased NewGame+ level range
  • Fixed a placeholder dialog bug when recruiting Therese in Em Village
  • Improved Chip's Charge state so it no longer wears off of Reid prematurely in the event Chip's AGI is lower than Reid's
  • Various minor re-balances
  • Fixed a bug with the Datalog showing invalid dummy entries that would crash the game
  • Fixed a bug with an errant Credits option (not functional) displaying on the title screen
  • Added a slightly better hint regarding progression in the Space Ship (where to get the Repair Parts)
  • Added a text box explaining how to leave the Ruins and Winter Forest after completing their respective quests
  • Added special battle theme to the Wiggler optional battle in the Dark World (thanks, Axial team!!)
  • Battle Arena! 
    • You can now fight enemies in the main world and win prizes
    • Also useful to test out characters' play styles without having to travel outside the starting zone
  • NewGame+
    • Beat the game to unlock this mode
    • Carry over all your equipment and levels
    • Enemies are significantly harder!
    • New gear can be crafted with Ultra Orbs (rare)
    • Secret boss?!

Unless I've missed bugs or created new ones inadvertently in this build, this will be the final update for this project.

It's been a pleasure! Thanks once again to Human and all the participants of Harold Jam 2023 as well as Sawyer Friend, OathGames, and TheRealTron for letting me use their OC's as playable characters.
