Gameplay Changes

• Auto-refresh Soul behavior:
  • "Auto-refresh used soul" occurs only at start of the turn. This means, if you run out of Souls, your turn will be over even when you have some energy left. You need to think strategically to plan your next moves and use your energy efficiently. This change is introduced to prevent endless turn bugs that are caused by Charge.
• Skip Turn button:
  • Now, your turn won't end automatically if you have some zero cost Souls left. Pressing the "Skip Turn" button doesn't refresh unused souls.
    • Although the "Auto-refresh" change takes some control away from you when it comes to 0-cost Souls, this change gives you more control when to play 0-cost Souls.
• Rewards after Boss fights:
  • HP/Armor is offered in addition to an "Ultima" after a boss fight
    • This change addresses a game-breaking bug when there is no space left in the ship for the Ultima reward
• Initial Soul draft:
  • Now the game offers 4 Souls 2 times, instead of 3 Souls 3 times. They are not random anymore. Additionally, Devotion is removed the initial draft pool.
    • We used to offer these initial Souls in a random order to make every run a little bit different even from the start. Now we realize, this randomness is not something you prefer at the start of the sessions; as you're more inclined to restart until a good roll hits. This is something we want to avoid to give you meaningful choices and save your
