It's time to climb the Horizon Pole! Version 0.8.1 is here and brings you the second part of the Prologue finale.

It took us quite a while to complete this version. Between the complexity of the illustrations and that of the optimization system, this was the most difficult version to release, but also the one we are most proud of. We have had some of the scenes you're about to see in mind since the beginning of the project, and it is a real pleasure to see them finally come to life.

So, this version focuses mainly on the main storyline, with a few side elements. We advise you to complete the side content of the other episodes before beginning this version, because in addition to the side scenes, you'll need as many Tokens as possible to come out victorious in the challenge that awaits you!
