Dear Prospective Residents of Hounimal,

Thank you for your patience! The July 0.2.0 update, featuring a new Hounimal, has now been released! Check out the patch notes below!

Key Additions

• New Hounimal "Furious Claws" & Facility "Monument with an Emblem" After clearing the second stage, you can select the Hounimal "Furious Claws" from the Monument. This Hounimal boasts a vertical layout and fights by transforming its rage into power.

• Ceiling Furniture Easy to place in Hounimal's often-empty spaces, these furniture pieces don't add commands but offer powerful placement effects.

• Command Reset Function Commands can now be reset after a CHAIN or after using Accel.

• New Stage "Tense" This is the fourth stage, featuring stronger enemies. It seems the Librarian will also lend a hand in your adventure. You might even meet the Saintess...

• New Furniture Placement Effects Numerous effects have been added, including Command stat enhancements and buff acquisition upon drawing.

• Adventure Facility "Book of Lore" This facility alters adventure rules and difficulty in exchange for rewards like furniture and gold.

• Base Facility "Forest Library" Here, you can view a list of your furniture. More information will be added in future updates.

Key Changes

• Changed Command CHAIN Enhancement Description Rules Commands that previously activated additional effects at 2 or more CHAINS have been changed as follows: Old: "1 CHAIN or more" → New: "2 CHAINS or more" This change was made because the previous description was confusing; "X CHAINS or more" referred to the number of activated commands, whereas "Xth CHAIN" referred to the Xth command including unactivated ones.

Other Additions & Changes

• Added icons for Command Additional Effect Rules.

  • Now you can see how many CHAINS are required for an additional effect on the command itself.

• Added New Command Enhancement Rules.

  • Commands are enhanced when "consuming HP while command is usable" or "Weight Accel is unused."

• Improved Map Generation Logic.

  • The same block will no longer spawn enemies and rewards simultaneously.

• Simple conversations added within each NPC facility.

• Added 5 new disaster foes.

• Added 20 new furniture pieces (surpassing 100 total!).

• Added 18 new commands (total for furniture, Hounimal, and enemies).

• Added new NPC: The Saintess.

• Added 3 new achievements.

• Pause menu layout.

• Buff and debuff icon sizes.

• Improved visibility for placed/unenhancable furniture in the list.
