Demo 0.0.8 - Patched
Patch Fixes:
Fixed softlock caused by Diogon and Spug King boss… hopefully.
Replaced Spug King resurrection with 2 turn invincible. ( When rezzing his statuses we’re not showing. )
Removed Diogon’s reflect poison when hit. I think it was one of the causes of some of the softlocks. Increased his poison duration to 6 turns.
Removed Nyssa’s extra turn after summoning an elemental. She was taking too many turns.
Removed Lester’s precast attack.
Lowered Spug Guardian’s normal shot damage.
Doubled Braxus Dragonskin’s ultimate cooldown from 3 to 6. He can now be crowd controlled. He's still really strong.
Fixed grammar mistakes listed in Discord.
Mirna update. Mirna’s Performance critical damage percentage is now 2%. She also has a new 25% chance to gain “Luck of the Draw” (Algaffofthe suggestion) which increases critical damage 5%. Both Luck of the Draw and Performance have infinite stacks.
Added new Spug Dungeon to Spugnolia for farming.
Both the Dark Dungeon and Spug Dungeon can be farmed for experience and gold. Both will drop runes the first run through that can be used or sold for a nice chunk of gold.
Experience for boss kills now corrected. Some bosses we’re giving the same experience as minions.
Enemy hitpoints lowered.
Akumi Wars Demo Version 0.0.8 - Spug City
Patch Notes:
Brand new zone open, Spugnolia! Home to Spug City, where Akumi lives!
When hero’s are critically hit, new blood splatter FX on screen.
When heroes critical hit an enemy, new camera shake.
Many new skills focused on passive stacking of statuses to buff your damage, defense, healing and more!
New consume/activate DoT skills. Skills that can activate and/or consume DoTs on a target to have all the damage it would do over time happen immediately. Can also be used to heal caster.
New Demonkiss shop focused on selling unique and powerful offensive skills at a higher price. Need gold? Skills can also be sold here for a higher price.
New character Jade: Focuses on piercing shots that damage and removing buffs from her targets. Does your enemy have too many heals, shields and other buffs? Jade says begone!
New character Trena: Jade’s sidekick who compliment each other’s attacks. Trena, the agile beast girl, who can constantly stack marks on her target to take more and more damage. Great at disposing of single targets with ease.
New Character Caddeus: Don’t let his looks fool you. This fire-breathing lizard has ironhide skin that continues to increase the more he gets hit!
New Character Liv: Focuses on root attacks that reduce enemy turn meters and slows their attacks. She also has a new healing method where she can heal her primary target and then place a second delayed heal on the lowest health ally. This second heal will activate in 2 turns. It’s a life saver!
New enemy weaknesses. The Scarlet demons seem to take little damage from your heroes until you add fire to the mix. First enemies to take more damage from a specific element.
New upgrade shop. Got duplicate skills of the same type and level? Go to the Upgrade Shop and combine 3 of them into 1 stronger version. New common items have been added that can be upgraded: 3 Normal Potions can be upgraded into 1 Epic Potion. 3 Epic Potions can be upgraded into 1 Legendary Potion. New “1Up Shrooms” can also be upgraded.
Many new cutscenes.
Many, many new character skill kit revamps! Example: Akumi gains attack stacks the more she attacks with her sword making her a power house the longer the fights go. Her ultimate attack now activates all DoTs on her target for bonus damage. Stack them DoTs before using her ultimate attack!
Now you can read Hero bios to get tips on how to best use their skills!
New skills that give bonus critical damage to stunned targets.
Many new Hero Skin rewards.
Probably more stuff but too much to remember. Have fun!

Demo Build 0.0.6 Update is Live!
Hello Playtesters,
There's been a ton of polish and work added to this build. We're giving you access to all the characters and skills in this build to test out again.
Updates:
Turns between character actions have been sped up significantly.
Frame-rate slow-down has been drastically reduced. Tulio fixed some performance issues and I turned off looping for a lot of visual effects like the healing over time animation. These we're a major reason for slow-down.
Damage and heal over time effects are now played individually. Characters will now play a pain animation along with sound and visual effect for each DOT they have on them. Some dots have been reworked to have a more consistent effect: Poisons reduces healing and does damage to remaining health. Bleeds reduce damage and does damage to remaining health. Burns do a percentage of target's max health as damage. This can be slightly varied from character to character.
Many menu polish updates: shop item tooltips, tooltips for characters in victory screen
New characters: Miltonius, Tirax, Soybean, Chaz, Scarlet Betrayer
Chad minor rework
Level 20 big boss test nodes: "Timeless Titan" and "Scarlet Fiend" (Extremely Difficult)
New settings options: fullscreen/ windowed, resolution options and a quit button!
New voiceover audio added to Akumi and Drone in the first cutscene.
Let us know what you think in the Akumi Wars Discord. Remember to press F5 on the title screen! Onwards and Upwards!
