  Hello Guildmasters!Welcome to our weekly update. First of all, thank you to everyone who is playing our demo for the feedback and the kind words you keep sharing with us. We’re grateful for all of you.Now, a quick update on our work behind the scenes on the full game: we created new art pieces for a new biome and new heroes, and worked on a system for highlighting hexes affected by placement effects (e.g. adjacency, first row, last row, etc.). We're excited to share a beta version with you in the future, but we're still laying groundwork on the full game before that's ready to show.In the meantime, we have a demo update for you which also includes some balance changes. As always, changes marked by "⭐" were suggested by you.

It contains mainly buffs to Items, Relics, Class Modifiers, and a few Hero Specializations which were underperforming compared to their counterparts.
