😅 - More boring UI updates... You can now assign "equipment" in the prep menu!
🛡️ - Each unit has a dedicated "Equipment" slot offering passive bonuses, like stat boosts and resistances. Unlike weapons or items these can't be swapped and are locked in battle.

I've been deep in the tedious task of setting up the menu, which feels pretty monotonous since I can't see immediate changes in the game. But it's necessary! Here's a glimpse of my progress!

🔖 - I had to re-arrange the format for the preparations menu, the whole journal theme was cute but incredibly hard to keep it looking cohesive. New version has this cute bottom runway showing your deployed party swap live as you select them!

I had a lot of people question how the capture mechanic worked, So I tweaked it!
Now, Instead of having to trade on a fresh turn. The attacker can immediately access the captured units inventory. As well as the option to drop them immediately.

I love, that when I am playing my game legitimately and I really need a clutch crit to save the day. It does not come.
However, If I am play-testing something, and I need it not to crit.
Those units will be suddenly be serving crits on a silver platter.🤣
