- Demo 0.8.25 Update — Play Now in Next Fest! - 13 October 2025
First of all, apologies for not posting an update for the past three weeks!I poured nearly all my energy into development to catch up with the Steam Next Fest deadline.There’s still a lot to refine, but I believe the most essential parts are finally in place — and hopefully, the effort shows.Anyway, have fun playing! 🃏 Card AdjustmentsHealing → 1 cost, restore 4 HPPeacemaker → 1 cost, lose 20 HP, take 25% self-damage per turnBig Butt → Nerfed to: Gain 1 Taunt and Block 🦠 Parasite AdjustmentsUpgraded Parasites can now still be disassembled into Pure Souls, and their prices increase by 50%The shop can now refresh with upgraded ParasitesCursed Blood+ → Now grants 4 Bleed stacks per turnFilth Eater → Buffed to heal 3 (5) HP whenever Sin increases👹 Monster AdjustmentsReworked the battle mechanics of: Haryia the Soul-Eater, Giant King Gelmire, Rose Knight, and SingerAll monsters no longer…
- Demo 0.8.21 Update — Lots of New Cards & QoL Improvements - 21 September 2025
It’s been a while since I last wrote an update log—I’ve quietly pushed some changes behind the scenes. But that’s not really fair to everyone, so here we go.🧟 FractureA large batch of new cards has been added. Some still don’t have their final artwork yet, but I wanted to let everyone try them out.Many of these cards focus on synergy and combo mechanics, which should help address some of the clunky feedback players gave before.Some of the new interactions might even feel a bit overpowered… but hey, let’s see what happens once players break the game.🩸 SanguinarThe Ranger also received some new cards, and a few old ones were removed.The new cards mostly revolve around the evasion mechanic. For example:Shadowstep doubles your Evasion.Afterimage restores lost Evasion.The focus here is on dynamics. While stacking defense endlessly is fun and relaxing, I wanted players to experience a const…
- Demo 0.8.1 Update — A Wave of Balance Changes & QoL Improvements - 10 September 2025
⚔️ Evasion Mechanic ReworkThe previous Evasion system had some depth, but the concept of Agility often caused confusion. This time I’ve reworked evasion once again, making it easier to understand while keeping its unique depth:Evasion: When attacked, reduce final damage by the number of Evasion stacks, then halve the Evasion stacks.🃏 Evasion-Related Card ReworksRoll and Evade: Discard 1 card, gain 8 Evasion.Daring Step: Gain 6 Evasion. If you lose HP from an attack this turn, lose all Dodge.Spinback: Gain the amount of Evasion you have previously lost this battle. Shuffle. Deplete.Shadow Cloak: Gain 4 Evasion whenever attacked.Scarlet Phantom: Gain 2 Evasion whenever you gain Bleed.Phantom Sword: Deal damage equal to Evasion stacks, then halve Evasion stacks. Repeat until all Evasion is gone. Then restore all Evasion.🩸 Blood Ranger Card AdjustmentsCleave: Now has Instant.Incurable Cur…
- Demo 0.8.0 Patch Notes — New Class! The Fracture Arrives! - 28 August 2025
🌟 New Class: FractureThe initial version of Fracture is here!Currently, he comes with 45 cards. While the number isn’t huge, it’s already enough to test his core mechanics. (In fact, I still have many ideas that didn’t make it in yet!)Balancing such a unique mechanic as the Splitters is an extraordinary challenge, so I’ll be keeping a close eye on feedback and making adjustments as needed.I can’t wait to see what players think — if you have any feedback, please feel free to reach out!🩸 Sanguinar’s Starting Deck AdjustmentPreviously, the Sanguinar’s starting deck was too bland — not only unfun to play, but it also failed to highlight his unique traits.So, I broke away from the principle of “starting decks should remain simple” and remade 2 of his starting cards:Stab → BloodarrowCost: 1Deal 4 attack damage.Consume all your Bleed, applying the same amount of Armor Break to the target.Min…

- 🧩 The Final Piece of Combat – Monster Reinforcement Mechanic - 8 July 2025
Welcome back! This time, the main highlight of the update is the Monster Reinforcement Mechanic, which brings a new layer of strategic tension to every battle. Or perhaps more accurately — this is the final piece of the game’s core combat system.👹 Monster Reinforcement MechanicIn addition to the monsters present at the start of a battle, there is now a reinforcement queue — with one new monster entering the battlefield each turn.To win a battle, the player must defeat all monsters, including reinforcements. However, if there’s a Monster Leader on the field, you only need to defeat the Leader to achieve victory.⚖️ Playing Cards Without Power (at a Cost)When you don’t have enough Power, you can now still play cards — but you will gain Sin equal to the Power you lacked.☀️ Daily Activity Time AdjustmentThe daily activity duration has been increased: 10 hours → 12 hours🎲 Event Adjustments�…
- Demo v0.7.0 Update — A Radical Attempt - 25 June 2025
Welcome back! This update introduces a bold gameplay change: a complete rework of the card draw system.🔄 A Brand-New Draw MechanicThe draw pile is now divided into 4 separate piles based on card types:RitualAttackSkillAbilityWhenever you draw a card, you can freely choose which pile to draw from, one card at a time. If a pile runs empty, a reshuffle button will appear below it — though reshuffling costs 1 draw.This seemingly simple change brings a whole new layer of strategy and experience. Players now have far more control over how their turns unfold. In fact, it feels like the system forces you to think and make intentional decisions.During internal testing, I found myself constantly evaluating the situation before every draw — building a sense of anticipation.And as the draw progresses, that anticipation is either fulfilled… or not.Of course, the system isn’t without risk:The learni…
