Apparantly devlog posts for minor patches on itch are now a thing again. I had avoided posting them since itch.io didn't seem to like weekly update posts like this, or at least I felt like the algo didn't like it. Two days ago, the algo majorly changed and hates the game now, so eh, whatever might just start posting the patch notes here again also for non-major releases.

Note that the public release will be in 1 week. You can also skip the waiting time by buying Star Knightess Aura on itch.

Bugfixes and bugfixes and more bugfixes. Also a bunch of nerfs to Belphegor that individually should not be too strong but together wortk should reduce his the amount of threatening things you need to prepare for. In particular the regular ATK based damage has been significantly reduced and the power skills in the fight have gotten 1 extra turn of delay each.
