addedOver the past few weeks, players have shared tons of valuable feedback about the current gameloop. And it obviously has a lot of changing to do. I hope that the July Joust has helped mitigate some of the concerns over the randomness of team placement. Later this week, I plan to include a questionnaire in-game to allow players to share their thoughts on this new mode. However, I also think that a consequence of an autobattler is that critical players may get caught up in analyzing the battles, when in reality, the heart of the game lies in the shop.

addedIn a game like this, strategy is about being clever enough to make a strong team with the limited tools provided, and currently Pixelitos' shop is a little too unlimited . That's why, over the next several weeks, I plan to introduce a New Wave of Pixelitos . The main reasons for this is to achieve the following:

addedIntroduce new abilities that allow for a wider variety of strategies
changedFor now, these will be treated as an experimental set , and exclusive to event modes.
addedFOR PLAYERS: This is where you come in! Since we are adding new Pixelitos, I encourage everyone to share your ideas. Feel free to share here in the Suggestions Forum, or on the Discord server. I cannot guarantee every idea will get in, but the best ideas will be credited in-game as your Pixelito. Keep in mind that we won't be adding new types (yet), so keep it to the current 7. I can't wait to see everyone's ideas.
