Big Patch for Inkbound Demo Out Now!
Hello Inkbound fans!

We are releasing our first major live patch and it has a ton of changes, many of which come from your feedback and bug reports! The full details are below, but first we wanted to talk a little about the big changes.

First of all we've included many new ways to see what is going on in combat. Much of this still requires polish, but we wanted to get a version to you all as soon as possible. When moving you will now see much more clear lines where your cost to move will change, and above your head you'll see your total damage taken if you end your turn there and also the Will cost for your current action. You can also now hold Shift to drag the camera to look further afield while in combat or out!

We've also tuned the game to be both harder and also faster. We've eliminated a whole book, driving you to face the Villain after the second one, in order to get our run length closer to our 30-40 minute session time target. We've also made countless balance changes to battles, vestiges, and more to increase fun factor and balance.

Finally, we targeted many often reported bugs, including being unable to join parties, continue progression if someone moves while voting on a choice, and vanishing items. That said many of these bugs only happen in 'real life' situations and it's possible we didn't fully fix them in every case, so we appreciate your ongoing bug reports.

We look forward to seeing you in game over the next few weeks for Next Fest and joining us on our journey to launch!

Full patch notes are available in our Discord.

Dev Stream #31: Mark and Andrew take the stage!
This week, there will be no stream on Wednesday, February 1st at 4:00 PM PT. Buuuut, to make up for it, MARK will be joining the Friday stream. That's right, after a long hiatus from the screen, Shiny Shoe's CEO is back in front of the camera and ready to answer questions.

Tune in Friday, February 3rd at 12:00 PM PT for Mark's special appearance! https://www.twitch.tv/playinkbound

Dev Stream #30: Surprise guests?
Don't forget the stream tomorrow at Friday, January 27, 2023 12:00 PM!

The devs will be playing the LATEST build of the game and show off the latest and greatest features! Tune in here for Inkbound updates! https://www.twitch.tv/playinkbound

Demo now live!
In preparation for Next Fest, we are releasing an Inkbound demo until February 6th!

This version is exactly the same as the Technical Test build, minus a few bugs that YOU, our amazing players, helped us identify and fix!

All your progress from during the technical test will be maintained, so you can pick right back up where you left things in Inkbound!

If you have any questions, drop by on Discord and ask the devs directly! discord.gg/inkbound
