Today went a little less streamlined as we had hoped and we apologise, @everyone . Regardless, a lot of new features have made its way into the game - let's go over them!
+
<div style="width:150px; background-color:#2c3552; border-radius:10px; padding:10px; text-align:center; box-shadow:0 4px 8px rgba(0,0,0,0.4);">

For those who enjoy company, we've finally made the friends system happen. While a little rough around the edges, we believe gathering feedback early will let us improve the social aspect of the game further over time. You'll be able to message your friends across all worlds to stay in touch. We're expanding this more soon!

Annoyed with keeping a paper notepad nearby to keep track of your scrolls? No more -- the timers for things like scrolls and debuffs are now visible on-screen and should provide a nice visual aid that's less distracting than focusing on chat messages.

Want to disable system messages? You can. Want to disable world chat? You can. Simply tick the box in the top of the panel to include or exclude it from the preview panel.

You no longer lose money in HR PvP. Yes, that's an odd way to start this paragraph but it's the keyphrase. We made the money pouch as a key component for shaping Curse of Aros further. Carrying money left and right just wasn't fitting, and pretty annoying.

The little 3-slot bar is going to leave us soon. In exchange, we're giving you a polished, customisable action bar. Simply select the items you wish to see and enjoy the freedom of picking your own layout!

If we had a dollar for every time this feature was requested, we could have hired Snowden to develop it. However, we've just done it ourselves and finally bring you a draggable bank interface! Cleanest bank award goes to..?

You won't be surprised to learn that the Action Bar is more than just there to replace the old one. It's tailored for Magic, which is our next large feature. As we're closing in (and with our Patreon members having had multiple test rounds), you'll soon find out why it's there!

Ahead of time, we're making one of the largest fundamental changes to Curse of Aros: the way Skill Points work, and the way your level works. Where you once had "a level", you now have "combat skills" and "a combat level". Remember "your level"? Yeah, that's now your "melee level". And the thing above your head? That's your combat level, the sum of '''Melee, Magic and Ranged'''.

Unsure where to go next, everyone? One of the most requested features was the World Map, and here it is in full glory!
 
 
 
'''A World Map!'''
 
Though an initial version, it allows you to discover the entire world, see where you are, and all the available interesting points. We will soon be expanding the map with requested additions, such as '''monster zones''' and '''task board guidance'''.
 
 
 
'''Unlocked Movement'''
 
A deeply desired QoL was a movable thumbstick to make it easier on the hands. By default, it can now be used in about 33% of your screen when dragged, similar to a variety of other games. '''Don't like it? You can turn it off in settings!'''
 
 
 
'''Denoised Chat'''

'''Redesigned Loading Screen'''
 
Even though it's visible for about 0.12 seconds, we've added Umbra to the loading screen to spice it up.
 
 
 
'''Sign In With Apple on PC'''
 
For our #patreon members, we have made the #desktop-game-download support Apple ID as a sign-in method too.
 
 
 
'''Notch Avoidance'''
 
The text in the chat window now has a slight padding to avoid notches in a variety of phones.
 
 
 
'''Crispy New Icon'''
 
We've also chucked Umbra right at your launcher, and as our icon in the Google Play Store & Apple App Store.
 
 
 
'''Magic Preparation'''
 
In preparation for the Magic update, we've added a lot of (invisible) features that prepare you for Magic. You won't notice them, but they're there.
 
 
 
'''Regression: Snowballs'''
 
With our Magic tweaks, Snowballs temporarily do not work. This is intended, and will be fixed with the launch of Magic (or even sooner).
 
 
 
We hope these features are much welcome. Enjoy them while we're readying up more...
