version 0.11.0.6
posted on 2022-04-17
Now built with Golang 1.18.1!
Fixed a longstanding math bug in non-remake save slots, related to game speed. The visible battle played out much faster than intended, and is now slowed to the intended speed. Offline calculations were and are unaffected by the bug and fix. If you don't like the change in speed, you can switch back to "Buggy speed" in Settings tab.

version 0.9.11.1

Artillerist is now the 1st military job to be unlocked, and Guardian the 2nd.
Display job rank on the prestige screen.
Fix bug that in some cases allowed people to spend job points earned in one job on another job's prestige abilities.
Once a unit has taken damage, show its health bars for the rest of the battle (so it doesn't flicker on and off when regen is high).
version 0.9.9.8
posted on 2020-11-19
Fix a hang for players who are really far into the game, and dramatically extend the height of supported displayable numbers from ~10E+19 to ~10E+65

version 0.9.9.0
posted on 2020-10-26
MANY PRESTIGE CHANGES. To close a loophole and begin allowing infinite prestige growth, Job points are now USE-IT-OR-LOSE-IT. Prestige abilities no longer require a certain battle level, and are mostly unlimited in nature (but each level increases cost).
Jobs now have their own mini-prestige called rank up, that reset all prestige abilities for that job, but you must do it to make additional prestige abilities for that job visible.
MANY changes for better performance.
Bugfixes.
