    Heve been having a lot of fun with this update. Congratulations for the love put into this game. It keeps getting better and better. Loved using flashlights and found some cool new stuff like weapons.

    If this much improvement "just" took a month I can only wonder what you guys could do if you focus only on content, not new systems.

    Really, locations, cyoa events, weapons, characters and maybe new perks and traits are all that is needed. If you could pack more cool stuff to keep things fresh the game would be almost perfect.

    In my opinion (others might disagree) locations and events are what excite me. And rare characters. NPC events are also nice.

    I forgot one thing essential: cloud saving.

    We have to be able to transfer data between devices and play wherever possible (phone and tablet. Better yet if pc/mac/linus is included in the dropbox thing).

    This isn't a forum thing or me throwing my weight around, but please for the love of all things precious in this world, don't capitalize every single word when you type...reading your post took me a good 5 minutes. :p

    We didn't even get to spend as much on pure content as we wanted to in the last update. Some of the time stil went into some new systems: the lighting (and balancing for that), the new rare trader camp system, fire balancing, a new category of weapons (summoners), maybe one or two more things I'm forgetting.

    In the future we'll hopefully be able to focus more on content in general.

    I might if we can figure out the zombie jump. I try not to promise anything on specific features or suggestions.

    Cloud saving's been on the list for quite awhile now. Haven't done it yet because we need to fit it in somewhere, and also because we want it to be multiple-device. So PC Android iOS.

    Hmm.. I Don't Know ANYTHING About Coding But I Can Help With Placing It. You Should Get Count Dinkula's Bat Code And Make a Animation Of Mario Jumping To It. Make It Go Longer Than Bat, Cause, It Doesnt Even Look High With Bat. Do The Same Thing Again But Make The Animation Go Down. Not Sure about How To Hit ABOVE the zombie To Do Damage. I Hope I Helped

    If a party member (not the lead character) is equipped with a flashlight and it's dark-will they use it?

    Honestly, I think the Darkest Dungeon solution was ingenious. It's not a true sync, but it was easy to implement, avoids edge cases that could corrupt saves, and allowed me to continue my PC experience on the iPad immediately.

    What I'm saying is that it could be a stopgap solution. To my knowledge, you can't sync games across platforms unless you're running your own backend/ account system, which is what Desktop Dungeons did with their mobile port.

    To make it an option would be great. Like, zoom in during early looting for convenience, zoom out in later sieges for overview. Though I personally would rather have an option like "AI Weapon Pick-Up: Automatic/Manually", so AIs don't drop explosives when they walk over a weapon they consider superior.

    @Kepa: No other issues with the update so far. Thanks for answering btw. Though there's a rare old bug that I completely forgot about until I had it again yesterday: The flashing text broke and got stuck at the salmon-ish colour. Closing the app fixes it. I don't know what could have caused it, will look out for possible triggers. :cool:

    I've spent about 20 minutes with the game since buying it launch day. With all the updates I've got quite a game to dive into someday.

    a Game Mode Request

    NOTE: This Wasn't My Idea, Halyonic Angel From Discord Requested It. I Thinks It's a Pretty Good Idea Too,
    "THE LAST CRUSADE"
    This Has The Hardest Difficulty In The Game, More Then KEPA Mode, When u Go Looting On a Place, It Says "Aggresion" and "Size" and "Time", All Of Them Should Be a Difficulty Called ":skull: CRUSADE!!! :skull:" The Mode Should Always Be Dark Of Midnight! Bad Things Happen EVERYTIME, All Of The Bandits Want EVERYTHING From The Group, Traders want 5 More Food (My Idea LOLZ) From What They Sell, Other Then Normal. But, The Hopeful Thing About It Is, U Start With 4 Knights. But In This Mode Its Impossible To Have Requits, Cant Do Rescue Missions and Have Option Of "Recruit" In Text Story's. No Reqruits From Camps Either, Only 4 Knights, If 1 Dies, u Have To Be 3 PPL On Group FOREVER. But This Time, U Can Control Knights Weapons, (Sword That U Couldnt Touch) Will Be Able To Change! U Can add New Weapons Too! MY IDEAS: It Should Be Unlocked By Beating all 3 Hard Game Modes (Marathon, Familiar XTREME and Rare XTREME) Just Like Kepa. Dont Make It Unlockable By Beating Kepa plz, Cause I beat Marathon On 2 Months and Kepa Mode Seems Impossible To me ._.. Anyways, This Was My Idea

    When you pick up pukeyballs and pick up another weapon when all slots are full, so the pukeyball gets dropped, it rightaway activates them. Is this intentional?
