Public release of Tentacles Thrive Alpha v2.12 and Progress update

Both Public and Patreon releases are here! They are two equally important milestones of our development. One being the Save/Load implementation while the other is our core Battle gameplay.

As requested, Save/Load is implemented before other features. Although it doesn't seem to have problems so far, please be advised that any potential bug can be game breaking and render the save useless. Another thing I would like to warn you guys here and in game is that as I continue to make more features, the save might become incompatible with newer versions. 

Public version v2.12:

• Added Save/Load function
• Added birth graphic
• Bug fixed - undefined words in narrative during Explore
• Bug fixed - Dolphy's specialty no longer stackable

Progress update

Patreon version

• Standalone Battle gameplay

Now that the core Battle is completed, I will be tweaking the mechanics from feedback as well as implementing it into our game. After which the following tasks will be resumed:

• Showcase new feature Instinct with placeholder
