Greetings, worthy Souls!

Today's release marks a fairly large milestone in the development of Soul Survivor: Trials of the Goddess - we now have a playable, near-complete Chapter 3 including the game's "normal" ending. And, as you may have guessed from that phrasing, the not-yet-complete elements of the game at this point mostly pertain to the "better" ending, which should be ready fairly soon.

It's almost there!

Version 0.9 Changelog

A ton of Chapter 3 content was added, of course, however as is often the case I've also fixed some bugs, added or refined some features, re-balanced some things, etc.

• Fixed a bug where, upon death & respawn, a player's Turn Order indicator in battle would not update with their current actor sprite
• Fixed some formatting inconsistencies with item preview text
• Standardized the "Power" display in skill/item preview text
• Added intermission scenes between chapters that provide more context to the story
• Added an Upgrade vendor to Chapter 1, Area 3
• Smoothed out the availability of weapons in early Chapter 2
• Added a safety to ensure the player has access to Potions by the mid-chapter boss in Area 3
• Re-balanced Experience boosting items
• Fixed a bug with the relative-level-based Experience adjustment
• Re-balance of some skills' Speed ratings
• Improved the startup performance of the game
• Fixed some misc. skill descriptions
• Added some missing Codex entries

Future Distribution Plans

As mentioned in a previous post, Soul Survivor will be available on Steam in addition to itch.io. Other than Steam integrations such as Achievements, the two games will be practically identical as one would expect. That said, once we go live on Steam, there will be a cost associated with the game, both through that platform and here on itch. (There will still be a free demo of Chapter 1 offered even once the full game is out, however.)

In any case, now is a great time to check the game out if you haven't already done so, or if you want to get a sneak peek at the final chapter. Things are on track to see the complete game released in just over a month! (as of the time of this post)

As always, thank you for your interest in all forms: follows, downloads, reviews, etc.

Happy dungeon crawling!
