Final Chapters (Open Beta)


Hi Everyone,

This was a long time coming (and 6 months late). But here is the first final build of The Trials and Tribulations of Edward Harcourt.
I say first final build as I still need to iron out some little bits (interface, accessibility, bonuses, etc...). So I call this build the 3.0.0 (alpha) :)

Though MelS and I have tested the game thoroughly, I still expect some issues to pop up, so if you find something, please let me know. I've also opened a (maybe temporary? maybe not?) Discord server for ease of sharing:  https://discord.gg/6arc3tDfen

If you have other types of comments, MelS and I are more than happy to read them!
