At the moment, the only concrete future plans are bug fixes and balancing, with a little content dripping here and there. I'll continue to work on it whenever I get strokes of inspiration (as you can see from this patch, I was only trying to balance the game and got a bit carried away), but I also wanted to set an expectation that I can't promise new content on a consistent schedule. Hopefully then when content does get added, it'll feel fresh! I love the project, and still see myself getting lost in it from time to time. However, after working on it for over a year, my brain is craving something new! [b]HOTFIX 1.101:[/b] Game will no longer freeze upon loading into a room with a ton of Artifacts [b]HOTFIX 1.102:[/b] - Reworked Artifact System. Now it allows for the player to have more Artifacts than the screen can hold - Shop Refresh now works as intended in Act 4
