Quickband 2.0.1

[Antoine]

Hi all

Quickband 2.0.1 is out - source and windows binary available on oook.

The game is better balanced, there are some new monsters and arts, and the final boss fights are tougher. Also a few bug fixes.

Enjoy!

Good to see this version is "alive" again. Any plans for Ironband?

Hello Jeff

It comes down to priorities. I have four possible next steps:

- Continue Quickband development (comes down to rebalancing, and especially considering the difficulty of the late game and the strengths of the different classes)

- Encourage you to bring some of the Quickband changes back into NPP

- Develop Barbarian and Berserker classes for Quickband (something I've wanted to do a while, and if they worked well I would offer them to you for NPP)

- Rebase Ironband off NPP 0.5.3.

What do you reckon?

P.S. What really helps is to get playtest reports for Quickband - this allows me to spend less time playtesting and more time coding...

Actually what I really ought to do is get a Quick announcment up on the NPP forum. Will do that today.
