It's been a while since the last update. There was quite a lot stuff to take care of (both for the game and in real life). Much like the previous update, it brings small but substantial updates to the game. This time around, it's engine upgrades and a refresh of the battle UI. Engine wise, I slip-streamed some technical updates (which, sadly, also broke the saves), but should improve the stability of the game. In addition, the launcher got an overhaul. The launcher is now compiled with NativeAOT, which means far faster launch times and better memory usage. The last thing is the introduction of a new feedback system: Pressing Ctrl-Shift-F will bring up a new feedback widget. This should make it easier to send in feedback.

As for the stuff I was working on: I can't say much at the moment (yet). But I can say this: It has morphed into a different thing that I wasn't planning. Once it's ready, I'll let you know.
