Talented 0.5.8 - Swift Shadows

Hello Talentees!

It's finally here, after 160 days, a new update for Talented!

New Summoner Class

Our fourth class, The Summoner, can conjure his own army to defeat the hordes of the Talented dungeon. The summoner is hard to overwhelm as his helpers can take down multiple enemies by themselves, but beware of Elite enemies.. Turns out players aren't the only thing they deal double damage to!

Legendary Talent Farsight

You can now see the position of all Legendary Talents on the tree from the start of the run.

Game Speed Up

You can now play the game on 1.5x, 2.0x and 3.0x speed after completing it once.

Major Bug Fixes

The long time between updates meant that a few very annoying bugs stayed in the game for quite some time. As well as fixing those, I will be keeping a 0.5.X Branch open so if more bugs are found I can patch them as they come in.

Unpurchasable Talents

If you can believe it, this bug had 3 different causes! All of those are fixed and I've stress tested the talent tree system. Fingers crossed this is gone for good.

Huge Mastery Level

This glitch meant that Mastery Level 15 was selected after players completed the game for the first time, making it almost impossible to complete with only level 1 traits. 

Ghost Attacks

Particularly frustrating on the Warrior with a high attack speed. Ghost attacks where damage was dealt and the sound was played but no animation really hurt the feel of the game. This should now be fixed, I even tested on insane attack speeds like 10 attacks per second!

More Bug Fixes, Polish and Balance

- Improvements to collision size of enemies
- Wizard and Summoner both show their mana regeneration rate in the stats area
- Blessed (shielded) elite enemies are still knocked back when their shield is popped
- Mana regeneration rate increased for all classes
- You can now view your talents on the run panel (found in the top right of the talent tree screen)

And many many more... See the devlogs for more info on those!

I hope you all enjoy the new update, and I can't wait to share what's planned next!
