Roadmap

What will come with 1.99?

Companions (Pets)

• Multiple pets at the same time
• Pets can be levelled up and get more health, attack and inventory space (via treats/trade items, kept per pet type)
• Pets can be given equipment (weapons) that actually affects their combat (offense, defense, AC)
• Pets cast support buffs (health/mana/stamina) on you
• Merchant pets sell their loot and auto-collect drops in generated dungeons

Character & Progression

• New skillpoint-based progression (the old "Deed of Limit" items are gone)
• Tier system: level cap = Tier x 10 (max 500); tiers earned from trainers and the story
• New trainers 2-5 (Castle Dark, Dwarf City) with reworked training costs
• Clearer stamina/exhaustion handling (rest-or-eat hint, smarter auto-eating)

Combat

• New Fear spell that repels enemies (bosses and undead are immune)
• Enemies can cast debuffs (slow, stamina drain, ...) with line-of-sight and level scaling
• Fireball now hits an area
• Antidote grants a temporary poison immunity
• Balance pass (no full heal on dungeon exit, skeleton poison immunity, several tweaks)

Dungeons & World

• Depth bands: deeper levels get their own enemies, tiles and auras - full Fairy Forest rework
• Royal Mines switch puzzles with secret carved rooms and curated loot
• Shallow water and boats (water you need a boat to cross)
• New dungeon: Ancient Burial Ground (Vampire Lord boss + quest)
• Drop shadows and new portals (Castle Dark <-> Throne Room)

Movement, Camera & Teleport

• Reworked teleport effect (smooth fade, no more flicker)
• Autofight improvements (skips neutral blockers, no corner-cutting, smarter targeting)
• Pinch, scroll-wheel and key zoom
• Smoother camera follow

Items & Inventory

• Hotslots remember used-up items (a faint "ghost" that auto-restores when you get the item again)
• Poison/leech weapon enchant titles, smarter recipe auto-learn

UI & Saves

• Loading screen overhaul (smoother fades, skippable)
• Spell-cast particle effect
• Packaged save backup: export/import with a file browser (iOS file sharing)
• Respawn timer now pauses while the game is closed
• General performance improvements (movement, fog-of-war, FOV)

Fixes & polish

• Fixed looting hang and long-press loot freeze
• Fixed fog-of-war reveal glitches (Dizzyness, "FOV not ready" errors)
• Tree/destroyable health bar no longer hidden by neighbouring fog
• Mining limited to real destroyables; maze exit no longer loads an empty scene
• Many smaller balance and UI fixes

What will come with 2.00?

• the second chapter "Drowsy Dwarves"
• new maps
• continued storyline
