Hello, furries! We are currently working hard on the next version of the game. Updating the combat system is taking us longer than we expected, especially since we came up with a new idea during development that radically transforms one aspect of the game—and we really want to implement this idea now. We originally planned to release update 0.8.6 this year, but in order to make the update more substantial and complete, we decided to release it later and call it 0.8.7. We also don't want to repeat the situation with versions 0.5.0 and 0.5.1, which happened at this time last year: we don't want to split the update and release an unfinished product. We want to release a full-fledged and interesting update, where every detail will be thought out to the highest level!
Now, a little about the new features! Yoki's interface will now feature tails instead of hearts, which nicely emphasizes the lore of Yoki's world (from the book The Dance of Nine Flames). The health and life energy (for health recovery) bars will become flexible, which will provide many opportunities for implementing new ideas in the future. The fire (mana) icons will return to their previous texture from earlier versions of the game. The long-awaited debuffs will also appear in the interface. We will talk about this and many other innovations in detail later.
