Hi everyone. Rohkuro here, just wanna give an update on how everything is going with Alter of Fate. 

It's been an eventful month  for development. I have added an expanded A.I script to the game to increase the combat intelligence of the enemies. So they should feel a little more tactical in their decision making. As well since the demo had been released a number of bugs and errors have been found and fixed. I think I spent well over a week checking every area for bugs and errors so I'm hoping there should no longer be any  left in game. 

I have heard much positive feedback about the combat changes but testers have felt that the game had become too easy.  So in order to maintain a good balance I  have slightly reworked some enemies damage and defense numbers, and added some more multi enemy groups. The biggest change will be with bosses, most will now come with a type of minion so they arent being the sole focus of the player. 

I have also been working on a whole new addition to the game. Forraging and Fishing, this has been an undertaking to say the least. Finding a way to add a fishing pole to each character was not easy,  thanks to Anya from Lolo Co.'s fishing system I was able to find sprite that works. I was unable to utilize the rest of the system they had. So I ended up making my own from the ground up. I used a quick time event plugin in order to make a interactable experience for the player. I currently have around 30+ fish available, but only certain types will be available in specific areas. So that way players will have to explore different fishing spots to find all of the fish.

The foraging system will provide the player with a way to receive renewable resources. One of the main things I have a heard from players is that they would often be struggling for crafting ingredients by the time they got to near the end of the Centra Plains. So with that in mind I have added in foraging spots. These spots will be found around the world, and will regrow with time. Allowing the player to return to these sport a gather more ingredients. These spots will include all currently available plants and herbs, as well as the Green Wrula Lizard. I have also added another 20 + new plants to the game. With the addition of new plants I have slightly reworked the crafting recipe for status effect removal items, so they require the newly added plants.
