V0.5 Test Version Release!

_____________________________________________________________________

Following the very positive feedback from you, the testers, I decided to produce more content to enrich the mechanics. V0.5 adds more classes, weapons, items, charms, books, recipes, characters, quests, and so much more! The main storyline ends at Day 44. After this, you can keep playing to explore what you might have missed or simply to enjoy the Academy and Magusgaia at your own pace. As usual, please let me know what you think by filling up the survey form:
