Hi everyone, quick update about Episode 2 of my turn-based Japanese-style RPG series Light Fairytale.
After the full release of Episode 1 on Steam in May 2019, I've been working on the consoles ports - PlayStation 4 and Xbox One - until the last release in the end of November 2019.
I was only able to focus on Episode 2 since December 2019, though the development is progressing smoothly. I've implemented 2 towns and 1 dungeon, I'm currently working on the 2nd dungeon. I'm planning 3 towns and 3 dungeons overall for this episode which should release on Steam around July 2020.

Update #4 - Improved Soundtrack DLC
Updated the soundtrack DLC which now also includes a FullHD wallpaper and a few concept artworks.
Update #3 - New Easy Mode
Added a new Easy Mode that can be toggled on the Race sub-menu. Here's the changes on this mode:
- More time on the timer at the start of each race.
- Crashing on a rival rider will still slow you down, but the rival will now disappear, making it easier to continue the race.
This won't happen anymore on the Standard Mode, as suggested in the comments.
- A few achievements are disabled.
- The leaderboards are still active, but the points you'll get are halved.
[EDITED] Update #2 - Improved Gameplay
- Crashing on a rival rider will still slow you down, but the rival will now disappear, making it easier to continue the race.
- When completing a race, you'll now get 25.000 points per second left on the timer (2x more than before).
- When passing close to a rival without crashing, you'll now get 5.000 points per rival (also 2x more than before).
- Added 2 help screens in the About sub-menu.
- Many fixes.
It is now possible to get even higher scores than before, so see you guys on the leaderboards!
[EDIT]
The rival disappearing will now happen only on the new Easy Mode, as suggested in the comments. Please check out Update #3.
