I've been reworking how quests are procedurally created in my game. Now, they actually tell mini-stories that tie with the lore of the world. I have also reworked the chat screen UI to be better looking. You can read more about it in my devlog:

Attention Indie Devs! I just need 15 seconds ... of your game footage! A lot of people jumped on the 15s video trend, so I thought it would be cool to make a compilation to help indies get some visibility. The anti-spam key is "kook".
