changedThis is the 1.00! The whole team would like to thank all the players who participated in the Spellcaster University early access. The game has evolved a lot in almost two years thanks to you. But this is not the end of the road. We will continue to work on Spellcaster University: in addition to the updates that will fix the inevitable bugs that will be reported to us, we will be releasing a free DLC in autumn that will focus on magic items and student equipment. And we have other ideas for the future. Thanks again to everyone!
