@AuntIggy: It seems to lag like that on some computers. I'm in the process of figuring out why.
Good news, Legionwood fans! The game's very first Expansion Pack is now under development, so get ready for even more adventure in the world of Legionwood.
Regarding the Expansion Pack
I'm thinking of doing it like this - after the game's ending, you'll get the choice (if you have the expansion installed) if you would like to play the expansion chapter. The expansion chapter takes place a few months following the ending. Storywise, it will involve the discovery of a new dungeon on the unreachable ice cap north of Rhasphodus, known as the Tower of Shadows which mysteriously appeared in the weeks following Castoth's defeat. A strange power has been surging forth from the tower, and many adventurers have died trying to discover its secret.
Although they went their seperate ways in the ending, Lann and the team regroup (aside from Liara obviously) to journey to the tower and climb it, trying to discover its purpose and its connection to themselves, Liara and Castoth.
The expansion pack will open up a few new areas. Obviously, the kingdom of Rhasphodus will be explorable, including the capital city, from which you will be able to charter a special ship to the northern ice cap. Most of the chapter will take place in the tower, which will be a huge dungeon with its own town included and multiple differently themed floors and bosses. Character specific trials will be in the tower which will delve into the backstories of the supporting players.
In addition, the expansion pack will add a few more sidequests that can be completed during the main game as well (before you fight Castoth) though these will not be related to the story (like the existing side quests) and the emphasis will be on the post game stuff. There will be a few new Techs, some new equipment and if you complete the side quests, a brand new summon.
