@holocuredev Bruh please rest and have a normal sleep schedule. I know you are a busy man and want to get stuff done. But if you are not on full anime deadline mode and just working on the games, please take it easy. We could wait a little longer.

Another quick showcase of how some characters' skills have been changed. In 0.8, a few skills are now manually activated by a new dedicated "Skill Action" button.
This button allows some of the older characters to have better player control over when skills are activated
English
@holocuredev Sleep? But IRyS is streaming right now! J/k, thanks for your hard work!
English
@tavera_leon y'all ain't ready for how crazy some of the 9 newest characters are designed because of this new button
it opened up so much and allowed for so many new design ideas
English
@holocuredev Controllable skills, i wonder what kind of fun new shenanigans we can come up with
English
@tavera_leon @AxelTheCake I used to feel extremely pressured to get updates out fast
but I looked at other indie games, like Deltarune having long updates, and people still happy when they get the new chapters, it eased my worries
tho of course I'm not saying cure is at the level of deltarune at all
English
@holocuredev @AxelTheCake Dont feel too pressured. Gamers are a pretty patient bunch when they like a game. No one wants a rushed project.
As for us fans, well, we've waited this long already. Whats a little more time going to do to us? Lol

Update 0.8 will have 9 new characters, but there will also be a ton of updates to older characters that a lot of them feel a bit new too.
Bunch of characters have skills that entirely reworked. Some even have a whole new Special or main weapon.
And I SWEAR, there are no nerfs.

@InamuTainaka I tried to get work done while following 10 or something enrique streams
it didn't work out very well
English
@holocuredev Oh god. Enreco just started and an Update?! 2 Great things happening!
English
@Armaggeddon95 Or another way to put it, improving on something isn't always making it more complex
English
@Armaggeddon95 Yes that's absolutely true and that's an area I don't plan on changing. The earlier characters definitely should still be simple in design and easy to play. That part will stay.
It's more like there are skills that are plain bad that need to be changed so that it fits better
English
When I look at the newest characters, it's very clear there is a massive gap in design quality compared to the earliest characters
I look at the old characters that I designed back in 2021, 2022, and I realize that's like over 4 years ago
and then I turn to dust

@Sanicman15 I'd say like a 60-75%, somewhere around there.
Up til now, I've spent most of the time finetuning characters, both old and new. I feel this is the most important aspect to get right, so I spend a lot of time testing and redesigning over and over until it feels good
English
@holocuredev Ok ok. I’m not gonna ask for a release date because that’s lame and just puts pressure on you. Can I ask though how “Complete” the update feels compared to where you would like it to be?
English
@tavera_leon Absolutely!
It's crazy to think about, but I feel like I was an entirely different person 4 years ago. I was a different artist, a different game developer, my thought process was very different. I've grown and learned a lot since then
So the game gotta grow too!
English
@holocuredev BUT! It also shows how much you have grown as an artist, designer, and creator! 4 years though... i was 26 at the time. Just hit 30 lmao
English
@OMDolton84 I have seen her in 3D streams
this is why I had to make this clarifying tweet
English
@AxelTheCake I would not say inspired is the right word
more like pressured
but also the past 2 months have been the busiest times of my life. things are starting to clear up a bit just now, thankfully
English
@RegiciderC I have not considered this and this is an execellent idea
thank you
English
@holocuredev "no nerfs" they declared while silently snickering that they not mention they buffed the "fans" parameters as well, I'm onto you Kay Yu
English
@holocuredev Ever considered separating the visibility of damage dealt, damage taken, and healing? Maybe even expand that settings for heals and crits so you can switch between: full value, symbol only (for example, + for heals), and disabled.
English
@Blackburn9371 Please note I have never said or confirmed who is coming in the next update!
English
@holocuredev Finally Advent and Justice join. Now it's time to wait for FlowGlow
