As the development term is getting longer, the period of uploading the development journal has also been extended... We are developing content to go up with the system, so please wait a little longer for the update. sorry ;(

Please wait a little longer!

Devlog #3
Hello! It's Maetdol Games.
Devlog is back!
The tutorial renewal is currently in progress. It is likely that the update will be possible after the renewal is finished and all the modified parts are translated into the currently provided language. If it's another event, I'll just update it, but since it's a tutorial... Translations are outsourced, so the next update will likely take a while. sorry. ;(
Instead, the next update will try to contain a lot!
1. In Development
1-1. Stage 4 Boss
Stage 4 boss pattern work in progress. I want to fight soon too!
1-2. Change Dream Merchant Design
Dream Merchant has become cuter! Existing sprites are the result of work in the past, so there are some parts that are a little different from the current design concept. We are developing the Dream Merchant's design to be more refined and add various actions to make the conversation feel more colorful.
1-3. Tutorial Renewal
The tutorial is being edited to make it more intuitive. Even if you can't use all the features when you finish the tutorial, you'll remember what features are there! The directing and story will also be slightly modified..
1-4. Edit Study
Previously, the Unlock Shop, Weapons Room, Training Room, and Entrance all consisted of individual rooms, but now they are all connected to one room. You can move a bit faster. Maybe.
1-5. Player's Room
A player's room will be added to the Study. Now you can have some personal time. In the player room, we plan to make it possible to check various statistics and achievements.
1-6. UI Renewal
The existing UI doesn't even fit the story and each UI feels individual. We're redesigning it so that it looks like the UI of Nightmare: The Lunatic, even if it looks like it.
1-7. Achievements
We are developing a system to provide achievements. We need to complete it soon so we can add more totems, so we have to work hard to develop it.
Because there are many things in progress at the same time, the update cycle is getting longer and longer, so we will work hard to apply many fixes in one update.
Totem: Dragon and Phoenix Soup has been fixed. - Recover 30 HP every time you enter the boss room -> Recover 30 HP when you enter the boss room first time every stage
The size of the stage minimap and icons have been increased.
Weapon: Spear's the special attack's the duration of continuous use has been increased.
