If possible, may I suggest pregnancy?

If possible, may I suggest pregnancy?

Including pregnancy is something I would like to do, however at the moment we don't have enough artists to draw all the variations we would need in order to feature pregnancy in the game.

Alright!

Added Roadmap section to OP (at the end).

Check it out, I promise it's pretty, at least.

The second alpha build was released for our testers.

This build was focused on:

• Polishing the combat
• Fixing the bugs that prevented the local map (dungeon system) from working
• Polishing the UI
• Adding player progression (level up, increase stats, get new perks and skills)
• Various details and small polishes

Supporters of "Apple" ($7) tier or above and contributors have access to it.

demo is good, game looks of interest and look forward to seeing how it goes moving forward definitely of interest to me and like the mechanics you've got in place currently.

do have one comment that might make things better for QoL though. the debuff indicator/animation. would probably be nice if the animation for it was sped up some or if it was only displayed once when statuses are applied rather than for each one that gets added. cause having the first attack is a crit perk, with the 10% down on all stats when you crit perk, and the two target sweep attack gives debuffs perk means you have to sit through 8 debuff notifications for each of the two enemies if you use that to start out the fight (which it is usually smart to do when facing multiple enemies).

Thanks for the feedback - our plan is to roll out a QoL feature that fixes this problem on the next content update (could take 1 - 2 months to arrive).

Here's a mildly amusing fact: the debuff notifications did appear at the same time on the game's earlier builds - I removed it since I was afraid players would miss out on them because of that. I'll revert it on the next hotfix.

The QoL feature will be an option on the pause menu that lets you chose if the combat timer should wait for the text cues to disappear. (currently it's forced to wait)
