The Proteus Effect 10.1 Public Release

The Proteus Effect 10.3 is now out for supporters, and that means it's time for the 10.1 to go public! 10.1 focuses mostly on the new arena, but also includes a number of UI improvements. You can get it here:

Changelog

  • Added 4 unique arena fights
  • Added several skits, scenes, characters and conversations (mostly centered around the arena fights; some as a spectator at arena)
  • Added some arena rewards, including a way to purchase (a limited number of) consumables
  • Added enchantments and gems, two new ways to power up items, along with small gem and enchant quests
  • Revamped item screen to accommodate gems and enchants
  • A new (hopefully more pleasant) UI
  • New, much better looking icons, with distinct icons for many objects that didn’t have them before
  • More consistent design language for icons (state icons show at a glance whether it’s good or bad, abilities have one common look, easier to tell a really good item from an okay one)
  • Combat info screen, so you can find info about states and such (including whether they’re curable, etc.)
  • Removed extraneous resource bars (Ana no longer has MP, Alex no longer has TP, etc)

Also, if you were a $5+ supporter in either October or November but aren't now, please send me a message and I'll send you a link to 10.3. (Sorry for the inconvenience; SubscribeStar doesn't seem to have a way to let me message former supporters.)

I hope you enjoy it!
