Sacred Tails Game Update [0.8.2] – A Blend of Fixes, Changes, New additions and Tokenomic adjustments
24/05/2023
Hello, everyone!
We're pleased to announce the release of the 0.8.2 update for Sacred Tails. As always, we've been working tirelessly behind the scenes to polish your gameplay experience. This update introduces a plethora of fixes and changes, and includes some new implementations as well. It's our constant endeavour to ensure the best possible gaming experience for our community. The open Beta is still on track for June 2023, provided we are satisfied with the sprints currently taking place. When we have confirmed the date for the Public Beta to go live we will then start our marketing run, including various AMA’s, Social Media Influencers, Youtube game orientated content creators and much more.
What's Fixed?
Several issues have been addressed in this update:
We've corrected an issue where Shinsei could be duplicated while changing places with another Shinsei.
The Reject skill has been fixed. Previously it gave a 100% dodge probability to the Shinsei using it, but now it's been corrected to the intended 40%.
Avalanche skill's debuff duration has been adjusted to last the entire combat.
Several skills – Ignite, Glide and Instinct – were improperly incrementing the altered state effects each turn. This issue has been rectified.
We've fixed a bug where the Root skill wasn't healing the caster as intended.
Altered states will no longer stack when the skill is used twice.
Buffs and debuffs will now return to their normal values correctly after combat.
What's Changed?
We've made a few balance adjustments:
Reject skill's dodge probability has been decreased from 60% to 40% for better gameplay balance.
Energy regeneration now offers 25 extra energy when the turn has been skipped, reducing the dead zones in waiting for energy regeneration.
What's New?
We're excited to bring new additions:
An interface has been added to facilitate exiting the telescope view.
Both the bar and map Navmesh have been updated with objects that add to the game's ambiance, such as barrels, chairs, mats, trunks, candlesticks, lamps and three columns on the wall.
As of today, you can download the 0.8.2 build. We will announce when it is available on Discord and our website.
Upcoming Developments
Looking forward, we have a busy few weeks:
We'll be having meetings about Playdex integration tomorrow.
Several VC meetings are lined up for discussing future prospects.
We'll be working on the rebalancing of moves and energy costs to ensure a fair and fun gameplay.
As soon as we firm up the date for the open beta, our marketing initiatives will kick off in earnest.
Elements 8-13 will be unveiled within a week!
Tokenomics Adjustments
Alongside our game updates, we've also made some significant changes to our tokenomics, aiming to foster a more vibrant and sustainable ecosystem for our players. We believe these modifications will provide a more welcoming environment for potential buyers and bolster longevity.
Our new tax structure reduces the overall tax rates on buying, selling, and transferring. This revision is not just about lowering numbers; it's about creating more opportunities for you as a part of our community.
Here's a quick breakdown of our new tax structure:
Buy Tax (5% total):
Holder rewards: 2%
Treasury tax: 2%
Tournament Pool: 1%
Sell Tax (5% total):
Holder rewards: 2%
Treasury tax: 2%
Tournament Pool: 1%
Transfer Tax (3% total):
Holder rewards: 1%
Treasury Tax: 1%
Tournament Pool: 1%
These changes aim to provide a balance between rewarding holders and maintaining the project's sustainability. Lowering the tax rates will potentially invite more participants and stimulate more transactions, thus increasing the liquidity of the token. Also, by contributing to the Tournament Pool with each transaction, we are ensuring that our competitive events remain exciting and rewarding.
We are thrilled about what's on the horizon and can't wait to share our progress with you all! Your constant support and feedback have been instrumental in helping us shape Sacred Tails, and we look forward to your continued engagement.
Stay tuned for more updates, and happy gaming!
