Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, Raid Leaders!

For now, let's celebrate all that with the last update of this year! I have something nice in store for those who've been following the game and providing suggestions

Objectives and Rewards

Remember side objectives added in the last update? With this update, side objectives now give out minor rewards. So far, it is limited to "Loot" and "Pearls", but the expansion of the reward pool is something I'll start working on soon!

The rewards themselves also got a significant facelift, and several graphical artifacts related to them have been fixed.

UX And QoL Changes

Over the course of this year, I've received numerous requests about some things. Always in a hurry, moving from country to country, preparing the build for one even or the other, I wasn't able to give enough love to those things. But I can now!

Move All Button ːsteamthumbsupː

That's right, it's finally here :) there is now a separate button and hotkey to command all three Crabs to move out to the same location. This is the first implementation, so I am sure you would have a lot of comments, requests and ideas about how to make it better. If you do - don't hesitate to let me know!

Settings & Quit buttons in-game ːsteamthumbsupː

Any game should have that, that's basic stuff. So, Crab Raid Tactics now has it, too!

Attunement UIːsteamthumbsupː

The UI window for attunement reward now automatically pre-selects a Crab that can attune an ability, instead of always selecting the first Crab in the squad.

UI improvements ːsteamthumbsupː

The overall UI style have been tweaked to improve clarity and readability, and highlight on all the selectable elements have been updated. Also, gradient fonts! Do you like gradient fonts? I like gradient fonts!

Main Menu update

Ok, nobody actually asked for it, but I'm kind of proud of this one. Just look at how much it changed!

Lighting Update and Performance Options

Making the Settings Menu accessible during the run led to a minor rework of all the performance options, so they could be safely changed mid-game. I had to spend extra time to fix some of the existing issues with graphics and performance. There was also another iteration on the lighting on all game scenes - to make Crabs stand out a bit ore on every environment. Let me know if I actually succeeded!

Improvements marked with ːsteamthumbsupː were based on the feedback I got from all of you so far. Keep it coming!

As always - I'll be happy to see you on Crab Raid Tactics Discord, hear your honest thoughts and awesome ideas!
