Patch 0.10.13 - Thanks for the feedback!

Weekly Devlog – UI Improvements, New Mechanics & Major Fixes

Thanks everyone for the feedback over this past week! I've been frantically trying to improve the experience, and have squashed as many bugs as I can in the first week of the demo go-live. There's likely still more that I haven't even encountered yet in my testing, so please send me bug reports if you come across anything! (There's now a button in game in a few places, most accessible being the pause menu)

Anyway, this past week has been a productive one for Hunter’s Hand, with a mix of gameplay improvements, bug fixes, and balance adjustments. Here’s everything that’s new:

Changes & Improvements

• Status UI now displays both stacks and duration simultaneously (when applicable).

• Status icons now flash white on activation for clearer feedback.

• Fury now spawns a card at the start of each turn that deals damage equal to its stacks.

• Added a temporary animation for Oathwrought (Black deck).

• Guardian portraits have been reintroduced.

• Shock now expires at the end of the round instead of the start of the turn.

• Added a reusable Lore Label component across all scenes.

• The Shop now includes 1 random item at 50% off.

• Added pop-up tutorial menus for the map and battle scenes with short instructions.

• Implemented a tutorial overlay system with expandable panels for future scenes.

• Reintroduced card hover rotation for both player and enemy cards, based on mouse position (with previous issues now resolved).

Bug Fixes

• Fixed end-of-round statuses (Poison, Regen, etc.) not triggering properly.

• Fixed Poison ticking twice.

• Resolved editor issues by disabling tool scripts and updating [c]card.gd[/c].

• Fixed infinite recursion caused by the enemy scene loading [c]card.gd[/c].

• Corrected logic for cards that check enemy cards and status effects.

• Shop sale item now displays correctly.

• Fixed broken card tooltips and improved enemy card update frequency.

Balance Changes

• Increased Guardian & Ancient HP to make them more durable based on playtesting.

I’m really excited about these updates and how they improve the overall experience. If you get a chance to try them out, I’d love to hear your feedback!

What’s Next?

More polish, deeper balance tuning, and continued expansion of core systems are on the way.

Stay tuned!
