"The one major content change was the addition of a fifth equip slot! This was something that I probably should have done when I initially added artifacts all the way back in v0.2.0. The extra slot both reduced competition between ring and artifacts and allowed for all sorts of new and interesting item builds. v0.8.0 also made the game harder overall, so giving the player an extra equip slot was a nice counterbalance.\n" +

The news UI has made it possible for me to effectively communicate with everyone, not just players to seek me out."));

"In terms of game content v0.8.1 was mostly a followup to v0.8.0. There were a lot of items that needed to be buffed or nerfed as a result of all the boss and enemy changes. I also took this as an opportunity to make a few item reworks. A few of the new boss and enemy mechanics were also adjusted based on balance data and player feedback.\n" +

"This update had some pretty big additions aside from game content though, with hero splash art and new sound effects! The splash art in particular was a long time coming, I first approached Aleksandar about them in 2016! While new game content is perhaps more exciting, these presentation improvements were a really important addition to Shattered, especially when it comes to enticing new players to try the game."));

"v0.8.0 is easily the largest update Shattered has ever received in terms of game content. It included sweeping changes to basically every enemy after floor 10. This included full reworks to three of the game's bosses, which were some of the most well-received changes I've ever made to Shattered.\n" +
"\n" +
"These changes also heavily influenced item and class balance. Offense and defense became more fairly balanced, as many enemies gained mechanics that couldn't be ignored by just dealing more damage to them. I would say this update marks another new era in Shattered's development, as the experience of playing the game changed so substantially.\n" +

"At over 6 months v0.8.0 also took longer than any other update and it could have easily been released as 3 smaller updates instead. I felt similarly about v0.7.0, and since then I've tried to structure content releases so that updates don't take longer than about 3 months."));
