I've been putting changes and bugfixes in the readme file that's stuffed away with the rest of the game files, but I'm realizing that maybe that's not ideal.

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42534786/88e297e1e6b38bf3852262f95c48eeeb62f0b28b.gif Had some complaints about Cephi Palace being a bit annoying to go through, so I went and added in a way to quickly get from one side of the dungeon to the other.

There's now a togglable option to show drop rates in the bestiary. Without: https://i.imgur.com/qrTyAi4.png With: https://i.imgur.com/tkJ9JRm.png While doing things related to this I also realized that more enemies should have worthwhile survey items , so expect an update soon that addresses that.

Namely, they're not quite working at the moment. I'll try and get them up and running soon, at which point most of the ones that would've been obtained should pop up properly. EDIT: Okay, figured out what was wrong with them and hopefully resolved the issue.
