V0.07

Alpha v0.07 (9th October 2019)

This update focuses on updates to current content within Melvor Idle.

The main focus is on Balance (Except Combat), as well as an array of changes, fixes, optimizations and other QoL inclusions.

I have also added a Patreon link to the sidebar ingame. For those who wish to directly support the development of this game, and receive some benefits along the way, I will be greatly appreciative of that. I won't really be advertising it after this update, but it will be there for those who wish to support. This game will still continue development as usual even with no Patreons.

BALANCE Changes It was too hard to show all the balance changes here, so I created a Google Sheet showing all the changes.

See all the changes here: BALANCE Changes SHEET.

New Features
