Roadmap

This roadmap tracks the work we're hoping to get done before a public release on the Steam Workshop.

We want to have one character (The Wanderer) in a reasonably complete and playtested state before that point, but don't want to wait until all three planned characters are there. Thus, we're prioritizing Wanderer-related work ahead of work specific to the other characters.

General

Code

• Ensure compatibility with Slay the Spire v2 (the current beta branch with the Watcher update)
• Add issue/PR templates
• Make card masking/resizing part of the build process
• Remove base characters/cards

Wanderer

Code

• Implement Wizard Hat, Memory Deck, and Recollection Deck
• Implement Refuse to Forget (waiting for Watcher update to add a ScryAction we can use)
• Update all card upgrade effects per design spreadsheet
• Make a pass through the whole design spreadsheet and update effects whose design has changed since initial implementation
• Make a pass through Character: Wanderer open issues
• Implement relics
• Implement events

Art

• Create final card art for all cards (see tracking spreadsheet)
• Campfire scenes
• Heart kill cutscene
• Character select screen background (in progress by SLG95)
• Character select screen button
• Power icons
• Memory/clarity icons
• Relic icons
• Event scenes
• Combat model + animation (in progress by chevy28360)

Playtesting

• Some balance testing at A20
• Possibly some balance testing at lower ascensions

Future work

After the Wanderer is in a releasable state, the next broad areas of work will be:

• Character: The Cull
• Character: The Explorer
• Cross-character effects
• Encounter voiceovers
