Contextual Inputs :
I will be referring to Left/Right Click for contextual inputs, but they all work with Z/X as well.
Left Click on Allied Unit to Select/Move units.
Right Click on Any Unit to Display Stats.

Left Click on an Empty Tile to Display Menu.
- You can Save every turn if you haven't moved yet.
Right Click on an Empty Tile to Display Enemy Threat Range.
Known Issues :
- Some cutscenes are missing / unfinished. (I'll be looking to hire an editor for the next version to help with cutscenes)
- Some characters use placeholder / outdated portraits. These will be updated in the coming months!
- Some houses (not villages) aren't active.
- There is a battle preparation for Chapter 7, but the demo ends when you start it. That's working as intended.
Please feel free to join the Discord to share your thoughts! (And let me know who were your MVPs!)
I'd love to hear them.
Next dev phase will mostly be a polish phase. Expect new designs, mapchip/sprite updates. The whole deal!
Thanks for your time!
EDIT: Someone reported a freeze at the end of Chapter 3. It is fixed in v0.2.1 (I updated the download link). If you started the game you can transfer the save folder over and not lose your progress!
EDIT 2 : Fixed issues with Canto, Units sometimes having 0% growth even outside of Madman difficulty, Life Drain Crashes and Made Cleo's Fullbody Draw Combat Art effective against Armoured.
EDIT 3 : Fixed an issue with a freeze at the end of Chapter 4 and some deploy slot shenanigans in Chapter 5. Updated the loot you get from Farmland Defense. Added firearms that they can use to Firearm Cavs on Ch4.
