addedAs we continue to improve the main game, we just can’t help but go ahead and add those features into the demo as well...it's a tragic character flaw of ours. Please enjoy these quality of life improvements at our expense!
addedEndless Chaos! –We’ve added the option to immediately start a new run of Chaos, right from the end screen. Jump right back in with the same settings, or try a new setup – all options, including Tribulations, Crit Style, and the newly added Permanent/Forbidden Favors, can be adjusted here!
addedLet me try that again... (Restart Battle!) – You now have the option to restart any battle in Story mode from the settings menu. If things aren’t going well, or you know you could squeeze out a few more levels, give it another shot!
changedNo, really... Let Me Try That Again...! (Return to a Previous State!) – Ever get to the end of the map and realize you’re unfortunately underleveled? Now, you can rewind to a previous node to try again, rather than having to restart the entire map! Just click “Abyssal Memory” from the map in Story Mode to give it a try.
removedChaos Skill Tree Expansion! – Instead of limiting you to level 1 on the Chaos Skill Tree... The demo now allows you to progress all the way up to level 4!!! This gives you access to... Party Favors 🎉 Who doesn’t love a screen-spanning exp bar? Once unlocked, ALL exp gained will contribute to an additional passive reward during battle; a "Full-Party Favor"! Gain these to obtain temporary bonus Favors, or one-time effects to get you out of a pinch! Forbidden Favors ❌ Everyone has those buffs... The ones that just never vibe with your playstyle, yet they keep crowding up your shop. No more! With this unlock, select up to 10 Favors to remove from the pool, increasing the chance of seeing your favorites! Permanent Favors ♾️ Start off on the right foot by choosing a Favor that will accompany you from the start of every run. These playstyle-defining Favors can give you a strong start towards your favorite build! After unlocking them, these three features can be found on the Chaos Mode menu, along with "Tribulations"! Be sure to give them all a good spin for us...! ⚔️

Other improvements:
Added a skip button to Road Event in Story Mode.
Tribulation challenges are now available by default, rather than being unlocked after your first Chaos Mode win! (oldflowerGames is not responsible any sick burns you may endure...)
Tribulations settings are saved across runs, instead of having to enable them at the start of each run.
Poison predictions have been added to enemy tooltip! No more guessing – if Poison is active in a battle, the damage dealt to poisoned emblems will now be clearly displayed at the bottom of the enemy tooltip. (You all...use that, right? Our precious prediction box......?)
Improved initial loading time.
Added a CG Gallery to the Extras menu. Check out the art without all those pesky words.
Thank you for reading, and for supporting the two of us! 💖
P.S. We’d like to give a special shout out to Feedback Quest 8, an awesome event that ran on itch.io last month. We can’t overstate how much we enjoyed seeing a variety of streamers get to experience (and beautifully voice-act) our creation! Thank you all so much!! (Check out our freshly updated list of streamers at the end of our demo, right in the game itself! ⭐)
We shall now return to our development cave to offer blood, sweat, and tears in an effort to manifest this thing we call Emblems: the Sunless-est of Vows...
Until next time... Tonic & Ikiru
